    As I write, the dow is down about three and a half percent, the s&p down about four and a half, and the financials are down over 13 percent.

    When the the msm is obliged to give market stats tonight, which one do you think they will mention?

    Foreshadowing the next 4 years?


    He's only been in office for 3 hours.

    Thats a 1% move per hour.

    Has to be some kind of record.

    I thought they were ready to erect a monument of Obama, and put it next to Lincoln's. This was before he was sworn in. Just watch. This guy's gonna be such a flop as president. All those expectations will turn into nothing but disappointment. But then, what do you expect when a quota hire get's elected?

    Very poor examples.

    I hoped you guys would be smart enough to know that the "adoration" those leaders have received would be the equivalent of a person using a puppet to praise himself since media in those countries were utterly dominated by the state. It's not real acclaim at all.

    Totally different situation than what Obama is receiving in a country with a free media.

    Obama has received more adoration and hype worldwide than any leader in history. It's coming from across the world. It's staggering, and undoubtedly a bubble just like any other. The market is seeing through that hype right now.

    In their own countries they produced much adoration, but not this worldwide Uber Hype that Obama has. Not even close. No leader ever has.

    The only thing that could possibly compete would be a return of Christ, Mohammed and Budda all at once.
