Some numbers to feed to any Republicans you know

Dow Jones on 1/20/93 (the day Clinton took office):

3241.96

Dow Jones on 1/20/01 (the day Dubya took office):

10587.59

Dow Jones at the start of business today:

11442.59



Basically.... every $1 you had in the market when Clinton took office became $3.27 by the time he left.

Every $1 you had in the market when Bush took office is now worth $1.08.

Figure in inflation.... and you lost a bundle under Bush.



Two other numbers to tell your Republican friends:

Price for a barrel of oil the day Operation Iraqi Freedom began: $28

Price for a barrel of oil today: $142



Very simple and easy-to-understand numbers to throw at your Republican acquaintences.


Don't let them EVER get away with telling you that Republicans are "good for business". Both Bushes will have ended their terms with an economy mired in recession after a war in the middle east ran our deficits through the roof.

If we EVER elect a Bush again, God help this country.

So simple even stupid rePugs "should" grasp the numbers.
Do you mind if I send it out as an e-mail to a few Pugs who need to see the math?
Thanks!

but at over $900 bucks an ounce how can one justify it? I do need gasoline though, but my company pays my millage

they simply cannot accept that Clinton was a good president overall.

....and if they blame it on Democrats..... remind them that Bush had a Republican senate and house for his first 6 years.
