Obama's Bulls

Obama's Bull Market?

"I've got an economic plan similar to Bill Clinton's"

Most demoralizing thing about politics since Clinton is that facts, even when fairly presented, don't matter to half the public.  Nevertheless, we trudge on. “ The Myths Of Clintonomics By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Friday, November 14, 2008 4:20 PM PT Fiscal Policy: President-elect Obama says he's modeling his recovery plan on Clintonomics because it pulled the economy out of a ditch last decade. But that's an old myth — and a dangerous one at that. ” IBD's analysis is factual, but doesn't go far enough to suit me.  You can scarcely discuss Clintonomics without noting that his administration reaped the harvest of billions of dollars in Resolution Trust Corp proceeds, after the Bush Administration endured the cost of bailing out the Savings and Loan industry.  And, virtually 100% of Vice President Gore's "reinventing government" budget cuts came from closing scads of military bases, and turning off more scads of defense related spending. Which caused me to think this evil thought. Do you suppose it's possible that Obama and gang engineered the current banking crisis, which will be debited on the Bush ledger, so that Obama can realize billions in income about the time he runs for a second term?  I'm just saying.
