CNN's American Morning just had the funniest list re: the Dow
Miles O'Brien was showing a list of all the dates that the Dow has hit another 1,000 point milestone. During Clinton it was basically going up a thousand every year (or sometimes in half a year). It hit 11,000 in 1999 and didn't hit 12,000 until 2006.

Miles stuttered out a sort of "it's interesting that it took so long to hit 12,000," without any hint of realization re Clinton and the Chimp.

:rofl:

1. Is there a chart online showing what you saw?
I'd love to see one.
