When do I get my free healthcare?

Heck with that, when will I get my 'Obama bucks'? He promised us money and that PS3 isn't going to buy itself.

I will redistribute my wealth to you and buy you one to show you rich people how it's done.

A politician promised you...when are you going to learn?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

the check's in the mail, I'll still respect you, honey. I would dodge, not lie, in the national interest. I wouldn’t think of asking you to lie; you haven’t the necessary diplomatic training. Of course I lie to people. But I lie altruistically—for our mutual good. Telling lies is a fault in a boy, an art in a lover, an accomplishment in a bachelor, and second-nature in a married man.

But where should those Obama bucks go? To the poor...

Or invested in Wall Street

Only Mary Poppins knows for sure...

I predict... not much difference from today.


100 days, that's barely enough time to eat a big plate of spaghetti.

Obama's win tanked the market more than any other presidential election in history. We saw a 500 point plunge after election day and an additional ~350 point drop the day after that (in fairness O-Day +2 has two more hours of trading left but it doesn't look good). The financial markets clearly did not buy into Obama's centrist hype and the recent job & retail sales reports only hurt matters. Money people are obviously treating Emperor O as for what he really is, the most liberal member of Congress ever to be elected as President.

Although in fairness to the Chosen One this recession has just begun and the market's skittish behavior is to be expected. That credit crisis monster hiding underneath the bed is bigger and meaner than any recession we've faced since the Depression.

Or maybe Wall Street is worried he might not be quite so generous with those jolly bail-out terms as President Bush wants to be?

Or maybe investors and banks were doing their best to keep confidence up until election day, to try to vainly minimize the implications of the economy on the decision voters made?

Conspiracy theories can go two ways. :D

I was listening to Faux News (Yes, I do it for the lol's) and their business editor (can't remember the name... Cavuto?) said that the stocks also rose far more on election day compared to all preceding election days and hence the drop averaged out at roughly the same as all recent elections. Stocks falling after election day is routine.
