He is doing them as he promised he would.
How in the world did you expect wall street to react? Didn't you completely understand that his programs would tank the market. On November 5th I got completely out of the market and now sit in money market funds only. Probably should have gone into gold, but decided to sit out completely. It was so obvious that if he enacted any part of what he proposed, we would see a market bottom worse then any before. Stocks respond to free markets. Look around the globe and see what the growth rates are by country. He said he would do it, he is doing it, and to me the results are as expected.

I was one and still am 1. But I learned fast here that everyone has an opinion and they all matter in some way. We are still reading post on he said and she said. 10 years from now it will be the same deal as today. And I will mainly say, my support for Obama was for a change. While that may not happen as I would thought. Nothing with the Government ever happens as thought. But I went with the lesser of evils in MY mind. Again I stress MY, MINE, BELONGING to ME. Could not in no way have voted for McCain with that running mate he had. No name calling here, had enought of that months back.
But as I read all the post in the Political Boxing ring area, Nothing has changed. All will be speculating on who will say what when, where and why. Then race to find a link to your favorite News Report and post it to show your point. I did it, I am not no better than anyone else. I just realized it is Politics 101. I was watching on my favorite show, The Countdown on MSNBC. Kieth made a remark and it was true. SOmething Like it dont matter who you wanted to win, or who you thought should have won. It is Washington DC. In which to me the DC means "Dont Care". You have got to read into things before you believe them. Last time I checked I want the same thing out of Life as anyone that post here. But it will never change, Just like the Taxation. Unless we have another Big Party, and toss all into the Harbor AGAIN!!!!!
