Subject: you lied about Bush and I'm calling you on it
Bart, the Dow was 10,500 when Bush took office
and 8,200 when he left.
Bush did not take the market from 13,000
to 6,000 as you allege.
He took it from about 10,500 to about 8,200 which is bad enough.
You just loose credibility with exaggerated claims.
Like you are always saying, just list the facts.

Dave, you never get tired of trying, I'll give you that.
If you won't believe me, would you believe your lying eyes?
If your statement Bush took it from about 10,500
to about 8,200 was true,
this chart would begin and end at the same level - around 10,000
I'm too polite, but this chart seems to be calling you a liar.
Can you read a chart?
This clearly shows the Dow was around 13,000
when Clinton turned things over to Der Fuhrer.
The low point on the chart is where Bush's economy collapsed,
which is clearly 6,600.
Obama has brought us from 6,600
to the 10,015
as
of Noon today.
Of course, you're free to reject the facts in front of your face.
You poor monkey...
Can I get you some Bactine for your bleeding knuckles?
