There was a time not much more than a month ago that right wing pundits were jumping all over Obama, taking great delight in the falling market, which they of course blamed on the president. The common sense realization that the market was in free fall for a long time leading up to Obama's inauguration was conveniently ignored, and the assumption was that unless the market took an immediate and swift turnaround hinging on Inauguration Day, that the losses were due to Obama's policies. The downward momentum ignored, we ended up with ridiculous analysis like this, from Fox News:
Well, at this point, I would expect a fair and balanced news source to remark on how the president's policies have indeed negated the downward momentum inherited from the beginning of his term, bringing us up to a higher close for the Dow Jones Industrial Average now than on Inauguration Day. However, instead I still hear utter discontent for his policies, and they've simply stopped using the Dow Jones chart as proof.
