Obama Speaks -- Market Down 445 Points
Fox News Live | 8/8/11

Posted on 08/08/2011 11:19:49 AM PDT by pabianice

Obama is talking about needing new taxes and the nasty national financial downgrading by those meanies at S&P. The NYSE -- already down 312 -- just plunged an additional 150 points as soon as he started speaking.

Obuggery is accursed by God and the end of his time is rapidly approaching.

Damn the dems are just so predictable. My wife and I were discussing what he would talk about. Neither of us can stand to look at his mug. We both said he’ll talk about how the rich must “pay their fair share” and place the blame of the downgrade on S&P or somehow make a reference to the forces who are hurting our credit rating (Tea Party) and the nation. I still don’t know exactly what he said but I’ll bet I’m in the ballpark.

It’s called impeachment. There doesn’t have to be a legal reason to do so. The House has the votes to, even if the Senate won’t go for actual removal.

Didn’t you love the phrasing?

They’re going to ASK those who can afford it to pay more.

So, I guess they can say “no”?

This is so predictable, a savvy day trader could make a bundle.

Forget Soebarka, Barry, Soetoro, Dunham, Davis.

I'm beginning to believe his real name is Satan.

That’s simply hilarious. But no we didn’t watch it. I simply can’t listen to him. My blood pressure goes up and steam start pouring out my ears so I just turn the channel whenever he comes on. Thanks for telling me that though. Any other interesting tidbits from his telepromter let me know.

At what point does Obama realize his chances in 2012 are sunk and he declares Martial Law?

Investors lost confidence in business, not government. Government interest rates went down not up. Looks like the return of recession and a helpless government. No recovery in sight.

Now that most of the bad news is out...I wouldn’t be surprised if the markets rally back before the end of the day and rest of the week...

He’s “tipping the checkerboard” now.
He realizes he won’t win a two way race, so he’s setting up a three way, whilst upending the economy to create enough chaos that he could follow the plan you stated and the people will welcome it.

It’s pretty standard communist takeover tactics.

Government interest rates went down not up

Because the Fed is buying up 90% of Treasuries.
