Yes DU, The Dow Jones Industrial Average has increased a net total of $329.92 in nearly eight years under Republican rule.

That's a total growth of just over 3% in nearly eight years.

THAT SUCKS!!!

And this country is about to reward the pricks who got us here by putting them back in power?

I'm speechless.

3. So who guessed down 500 yesterday?
I knew it was going to be horrible. This should be in an ad. Thanks Bush/McCain.
