Sickos.

[MineralMan]

1. If I were there, I'd ask them what the DOW was at when

Bushit left office. Let them answer that one.

[gratuitous]

4. Yeah, it's still improved markedly since the end of the Reign of Error

But let's face it, these traitors want America to fail rather than succeed on any terms but their own demented ones.

[GentryDixon]

They probably don't have a retirement plan anyway.

Good one on the Reign of Error. :D

[zbdent]

35. They do ...

but they keep getting two bells and a "sorry" symbol ...

[kirby]

10. They dont deal in facts n/t

[onehandle]

2. God, guns, and gays. Nothing else matters to these America haters. nt

[Kievan Rus]

32. Sad but true. They're really a bigoted pro-white male hetero Protestant group

[napi21]

3. Gee, I wsonder how wthey're going to fere when they open their 401K statements?

Talk about a single focus!

[Rockholm]

13. They don't have 401K's. They are dumb shit poor fucks.

[JackRiddler]

22. So having a 401k makes you a smart, non-shit, and rich fuck?

The majority of Americans don't have 401k's, and they're not dumb shit poor fucks. Shame on you.

[Rockholm]

38. What I mean is they don't have them but they bitch and moan as if they did.

Most of these freeper teabag a-holes are not invested anywhere. They act, however, as if the government is going to take the money they don't have. They rant and rave against the "death tax" when most of us will never face the tax man when our relatives die. It is all part of their game.
I wish there was an emoticon for my original comment. I wasn't exactly being sarcastic. I guess it was more of a hypocritical post.

[euphoria12leo]

25. Evidently not

If they did they wouldn't be rejoicing. Does ignorance come in a teacup and the teabaggers consume more than they should?


:shrug:

[louis-t]

5. Gee, we're not seeing 800 point swings like we were

at the end of stupidface's reign of terror. No 700,000 job loss months either.

[tularetom]

6. Big corporations created these morans, now they have to deal with 'em

They're gonna have trouble convincing them that Wall Street suits making brazillions of bucks aren't part of the elite that they've been trained to resent.

[Kievan Rus]

33. Don't worry, it'll work. They'd think 2+2=5 if Faux News said it

[TheKentuckian]

7. They love mega corporations they just are cheering becuse they

think it is bad for Obama and the Democrats.

Give 'em a white Confederate male leader and the world will be right. They'll be cheering on the economic royalty as soon as they "get their country back".

[abelenkpe2]

8. So sad and so true. nt

[mwb970]

11. I don't think they really care about corporations.

Just themselves and their "way of life".

[TheKentuckian]

16. Sure, but their way of life consists of drowning the government other than the police state and

military misadventure which means in the modern world that the corporations would rule by default and unchecked.

[mwb970]

37. You got that right.

Eliminate or weaken the government and the corporations will take over. (If they haven't already.) I'm just not sure all of the Freepers truly realize whose flag they are flying.

PS. Are you still living in Kentucky?

[EmeraldCityGrl]

31. They want Obama to fail at all costs...

One of the reasons why is that they have nothing to lose.
They aren't invested in the the success of this country.
They hope for disasters. Their guy failed at everything
and they are responsible for supporting that crap for eight
long years. When it was over they were left with nothing
but more debt. Some have even lost their jobs. It would
kill them to see Obama pull us out of the muck and get
this country back on track.

[abelenkpe2]

9. someone should point out

to the bigots on freerepublic.com that markets fell all across the globe due to worries about economies in Spain, Greece and Eastern Europe. Hardly due to anything our president has done.


then again....why bother. They are idiots.

[Arkana]

21. Like it matters.

The President has VERY little impact on what the Dow Jones does on any given day. Sure, major world events cause it to fluctuate, but using the Dow as an indicator of a dying or improving economy is nothing short of stupid.

The Freepers have no basis to rejoice when the Dow falls, but we have very little cause to rejoice when it (inevitably) rebounds.

[lpbk2713]

12. They expected Obama to fix all the BushCo damage before he even took office.

Shit-for-Brains was the worst President ever. Obama said it would take a while
to fix the train wreck he inherited from the corrupt and evil BushCo Regime.
Asshole had eight years to fuggup this country. The damage he created may take
generations to repair completely.

[sharesunited]

29. To quote Wanda Sykes: Everybody acting like Barack just zipped up. That's BUSH PEE!

[B Calm]

14. What a pack of idiots! And they say their conservative.

[jaysunb]

15. Lone voice of semi-sanity over there

To: Commander X
What do they need to “look at?” Obama’s mother was an American therefore it is not in dispute: he is a natural-born citizen. This whole crusade has made conservatives look silly.

Fairly simple deduction there. I wonder why so much of the MSM and others seem to overlook this rather "important" fact. ? :evilfrown:

[ddeclue]

17. I do too and I'm a LIB-A-RUL..

It's totally bogus and they deserve to lose their shirts until their is re-regulation, enforcement of those regulations, investigations and prosecutions.

[Zomby Woof]

18. A whole lot of DUers do too

[JackRiddler]

20. Yes but the reason why matters.

[JackRiddler]

19. Please don't confuse the Dow Jones with the national good.

Why exactly are we supposed to root for the 30 corporations that Dow Jones thinks should be representative?

[The Doctor.]

23. Right, but the freepers see it as a 'win' against Obama.

They're children.

[JackRiddler]

24. I get it - actually children tend to be more mature.

[old mark]

26. These guys think they are logical and that liberals are stupid. Of course

the fact that they represent maybe 10% of the voters does not register with them - the election in '08 was "mass hypnosis" and a fraud because their wonderful ideas lost. They think McCain is a Liberal Democrat, and that Obama is controlled by international communists/satanists/ you name it.

They are waiting for the collapse of the US society so that they can emerge and take over, and make the USA good again, although how this is to be accomplished is vague.

Some of these people are disturbed and some are way way beyond that, and some are using the rest for whatever they can get out of it all.

[scheming daemons]

27. Reminder to freeps: The Dow was 7946 when Obama took office

It was 10545 when BUSH took office in 2001.

[EmeraldCityGrl]

28. Obama and the markets

Check out the video titled "Obama and the Markets."

What's interesting is that Obama's disapproval rating tracks
alongside the dow. The higher the discontent, the higher the
stock market. I would think it would be the opposite.

[Kievan Rus]

30. Aren't Freepers pro-Wall Street? Then again, they're so far right they're left these days

[paulsby]

34. i'm short, as i posted a while ago, so i'm not 'rejoicing', but it's profitable

the dow, whatever else you want to mention, was massively overbought.

[branders seine]

36. so do socialists.

[Raschel]

39. Since Jimbob promotes the tea party I think they should be called teapers.

[TexasObserver]

40. I've been expecting the DOW to fall below 10K the first quarter.

I don't think it will fall below 9K, and I believe it will be consistently above 10K by July, probably sooner.

In my view, the key determinant for this year is jobs. If we don't get more people working by September, we're in deep, deep trouble in November as a party. We need a big push for JOBS right now. Spend whatever it takes.

[krawhitham]

41. The Dow only lost 54.10 points for the week,

Last Friday (1-29-10) it closed at 10,066.33
This Friday (2-5-10) it closed at 10,012.23

[AllentownJake]

42. Remind me again why the stock market matters?

Oh the leading indicator bullshit.

The market goes up on the news people are losing jobs, till they realize they need people to buy their products.
