The Utter defeat of the Radical wing of the GOP.

[Harry Dresden]

Well no.

The Tea Party has been trying to crater the recovery for quite some time, parrotting the whims of Rush Limbaugh and the "We hope he fails" crowd.

It's becomes evident, well moreso, with the clownish attempt at trying to embrass President Obama.

Instead..it was them that were embrassed. Congress' approval rating is at 9%. In the history of this country, there's never been that sort of approval rating for any part of the government.

did you vote for the same guy as you did before Sallow?...

Yep.

My boys (and girls) ain't the problem.

Never were.

and that is the same attitude everyone else seems to have about their boys and girls.....hence the same useless incompetent assholes get re-elected and nothing gets better.......and so here we are.....

 

[PredFan]

Must be a full moon, or we have dumbed ourselves down so low that an upward tick is now the new definition of recovery. Stagnation is the result of hitting bottom and hoping that we don't fall further and my guess is we will test the new bottom soon enough.

Dead cat bounce.

Indeed.

 

[Dot Com]

That's been said before of both sides. It's never happened.

They lost the senate AGAIN because of the preacher-types. Remember what Phill Gramm said to the christian base when they demanded he act/say more christian things?

But not the house. And the dems were labeled dead in 2004. Repubz labeled dead in 2008x

Did they not lose seats in the House as well. I know they retained the majority there but they diminished it.

It's the defeat of us all, but it certainly feels good to democrats and that's what counts.

yes, they lost seats in the house. and the only reason they kept as many as they did is that the red states are so heavily gerrymandered.

over all, house republicans received one million fewer votes nationwide than house democrats.

This Sallow's idea of "recovery."

"Even after three years of "recovery," we are left with persistent unemployment (14.7% if you include part-timers who can't find full-time work), the lowest labor participation rate since the depths of the 1981 recession, a youth unemployment crisis, a "Food Stamp Nation" of 47 million Americans receiving benefits, and four straight years of declines in the typical U.S. family income to a level not seen since 1995."

"As an unintended consequence of the Fed's actions, American budgets are further pinched by $4 gasoline (up from $1.36 a decade ago) and rising food, medical and tuition prices. Ten years ago, the national debt was $6 trillion. Today, it's more than $16 trillion.

We are not on a sustainable path to recovery. We need a new game plan — not more of the same — before a real recovery can occur."

Dead cat bounce.

We've been in a bull market in stocks for the past four years. Equities are up 119% off the bottom in March 09.

In fact, Obama called the bottom within in days of the stock market bottoming.

With all the money that Baghdad Ben has been pumping into the markets, they had better be up....Problem with that for the man on the street is that everything else is up significantly as well.

Thank the Federal Reserve for that

So Obama supports allocating some of the Social Security Trust Fund (LOLz) to US Equities? If not, why not?

How so? What Fed policy improved the prospects, and thus stock values, (specifically) of the companies included among the DJI?

Yes, the Fed is a very big reason. But stocks were really cheap then. I expect one more big down leg coming. But maybe I'm wrong.

Yes, SS should be run like a real pension fund that invests in stocks, like every single other pension fund in America. And people should be able to opt out of SS and invest their own contributions.

QE boosts asset prices by removing bonds from the financial markets and replaces them with cash, which is then used to buy other assets such as stocks.

So Microsoft (one of the companies in the DJI) benefitted by folks taking money from bonds and buying up MS shares, ya think?

Well then run with it as being as factual as you originally asserted!!! If you "think" it up and it might be possible, fuckin-a man, you done gots yourself a fact!!

Plus I like it, even if it's pulled right out of your ass: Ben Bernanke sucked ass when Dubya was prez, but seems to be doing a bang-up job now that he's answering to President Obama. Seems better leadership turns fucked up agencies in the Executive into peak performers.

Whadaya know?

Part of Reagan's "recovery" was fueled by public sector hiring. Which the congress funded.

That's something the congress has not funded this time around.
