Well, President Obama is on the teevee, giving a speech, and the Dow is up almost 300 points.
Considering that last week FAUX "News" ran a story claiming that a supposed 56 point drop during another one of his speeches was caused directly by the President, I am wondering how long it will take them to credit him with the 300 point increase today. Story is also on KosTV
Update - Of course, the President has nothing to do with the level of the Dow, whether he is speaking or not. The only people that seem to think that there IS a connection are the dim bulbs at Faux news. The point is not that Obama SHOULD get credit, it is that Faux is standing, at the ready, for any sort of negative "data" that they can use to paint him as a failure. The question posed here is whether or not they are as quick to credit him with an increase of the Dow, while he is speaking, as they are to credit him with a drop - a drop that never actually occurred. (Is it long enough now?)
BTW -
"The reality: when President Obama started, the Dow was down 34; it was down 28 when he finished. So it actually gained 6 meaningless points."
