I was spanking a conservative on facebook just last night with a lot of facts.

Spanking conservatives with facts is hard work, but a lot of fun.

They all tell of an economy in ruins. Unemployment is way up. Business is failing. Up is down.

That is just the basic "fact" upon which they spurn all manner of vitriol

And when a major TV network and all the am talk radio are saying it too it makes it so easy.

that's when he took office. But it was about 9000 when 2009 started and a bit higher 9100+ when the 2008 election was. I remember RWers pointing to the early 09 dip as a panicked reaction to Obama taking office...

I think 6700 was the low in the last recession, not particular to any political or calendar event.
