I have to assume you are kidding here, because I think you are smart enough to know that the recession of 2008 had very little to do with any decisions that anybody made IN 2008, and a lot to do with decisions made by government officials, bankers, corporations, and private citizens in the years before 2008.

I personally don't believe the numbers. Unemployment is about 10% and all of a sudden new homes sales are up 11% (I believe the highest since 98). There are tons of for sale signs in my neighborhood.
Also, doesn't it seem that the govenment is going down the same path with the car program that they did with the houses/mortgages? What makes you think that some/most of these people will be able to make all the payments on these vehichles?

Economy better be in better shape in two years or we'll throw BO under the bus too.

Hell, I wanted Bubba back in there. Thought he was the only guy who could clean up the economic train wreck Bush & Cronies left us with.



At any rate, happy to report that the portfolio is up 12.02% year-to-date.

Bubba was pretty fiscally conservative for a Dem.

He was more fiscally conservative than any Republican since Nixon.

His downfall was employment. He was too worried about jobs.

I'm still trying to figure out how he got away with calling himself a Democrat.
