INSANE.........ABSOLUTELY INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the market has finally reached the point that they feel Obama is as useless as teats on a boar and that congress is worse. Otherwise, confidence in any financial endeavor in the U.S. is considered risky and foolish. Meanwhile, everbody in the U.S. just lost a substantial amount of their worth and Obama is out fundraising.

If you can hold on, the market will usually recover. What it's worth in something that's tangible might be a different thing. Stocks that are only good for lighting fireworks are not usually the first people want to invest in.

I can't blame investors. Can you imagine how much we look like dumbasses after the last few weeks? Add the Obamaspock's birthday bash, and "hell in a handbasket" looks like a children's book compared to the United States economy.
