Well, I say he is a dumbass that doesn't have the good sense to pour piss out of a boot if you told him the instructions were written on the sole. Well, unless he was thirsty. Plus, the economic team that he assembled would make the 1976 Tampa Bay Bucs look like the 1985 Bears.
So, to further prove that President Imbecile is toxic to everything that he touches, I have reconstructed the Dow Jones Industrial Average from George Bush's last year in office, used today's close numbers and 2008's divisor to show you how much suck Obama delivers.
Note: I admit that the DJIA is a horrible metric for investing or for gauging the economy, but that is the one we happen to use all the time.
That said, here you go.

Please note that I totally agree that having BAC in the DJIA is freaking stupid. But, do you know which Big Wall Street Firm gave an assload ($421,242) of campaign cash to Barry Obama? And GM is where it is because of 13.4 BILLION from Bush and another 39 BILLION from Barry Obama. Understand that TARP's break even point is $53.98 a share, too. I seem to remember that we had gotten all of that >50 BILLION back?
Furthermore, enjoy this gem, "By the end of Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign, executives and others connected with Wall Street firms, such as Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Citigroup, UBS AG, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley, poured nearly $15.8 million into his coffers." (An ALL TIME record, forever and ever, Amen.)
If you are stupid enough to vote for this Obama clown this year, you WILL get what you deserve, but I wish the people with an above 40 IQ did not have to suffer along with you if you are successful in your suicide mission. Plus, there won't be any doctors to work on your deadbeat ass in 2014, either.
Please take the time to comment.

I entered a fabulous diatribe a few days ago, only to see it zoom into cyberspace instead of being posted here. etablets are wonderful portable devices except when they are not.
That being said, know your blog is being read even if comments are not left behind.
The staggering amount of financial support from Wall Street is of great concern. So many Americans walk around with their heads in the sand; it is no wonder why this thief in the night from Chicago, whose formal education was most likely financed by activist Bill Ayers, will be re-elected.
I have grown tired of folks championing his ideas and policies. When I comment on a political blog, I am called a racist or a bigot. Neither are true. Anyone with an eighth grade education knows the costly fabulous failed miserably. However, if every citizen 18yo and older had received a stimulus check of $70k, then Americas could have stimulated the economy by purchasing vehicles and paying on mortgages, etc. But no. He nor the elite truly hope to assist the working class. They prefer a large gap between the haves and have nots.
