U.S. President Barack Obama Obama's Bull Market Intact as Midterm Gridlock Signals Gains
Post Date: 2010-07-19 12:18:23 by Brian S
1 Comments
Growing dissatisfaction with U.S. President Barack Obama before this year’s elections is good news for stock investors, if history is any guide. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index has surged 48 percent on average starting in the second year of each U.S. presidential term, measured from its lowest level through the high the next year, according to data going back to 1928 compiled by Bloomberg. That compares with trough-to-peak gains of 38 percent in other years. An advance this year would come after Obama already presided over the biggest rally during the start of a presidency since Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1930s. Bets on Intrade show a 54 percent chance Republicans will ...

Bush Ally: Black Panther Story A ‘Fantasy’ To ‘Topple Obama’

A Bush administration civil rights appointee says the conservative media uproar over allegations the Justice Department is protecting the New Black Panther Party from voter-intimidation prosecution is a "fantasy" designed to oust Attorney General Eric Holder and harm the Obama administration."This doesn’t have to do with the Black Panthers; this has to do with their fantasies about how they could use this issue to topple the [Obama] administration,” Abigail Thernstrom, former vice chairwoman of the US Commission on Civil Rights, told Politico.“My fellow conservatives on the commission had this wild notion they could bring Eric Holder down and really damage the ...

Cornyn Unable To Name One GOP Fiscal Policy Change Since Bush Era

Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) couldn't find a straight answer to give Sunday when he was asked how Republican fiscal policies today differ from their policies during the Bush era."What does distinguish the Republican Party of today from the Republican Party under President Bush’s rule with regards to spending, which is where it got out of control -- under Republican rule," asked host David Gregory on NBC's Meet The Press."Let’s look at a few facts — thank you for the opportunity, because I want to respond to what Chris said. The last year that President Bush was in office, 2008, the deficit was 3.2 percent of the gross domestic product. Today it’s ten ...

Rand Paul On Upcoming Election: War In Afghanistan 'Is Really A Complete Non-issue.’

3 Comments
In an interview with the National Review published yesterday, Kentucky Republican Senate nominee Rand Paul — the tea party darling who recently refused to say how old the Earth is — sided with RNC Chairman Michael Steele in expressing concern about the ongoing war in Afghanistan. “It’s too simplistic to say there is never a time to come home, or that it’s unpatriotic to debate,” Paul said. But, he adds, the public doesn’t care about the war: As we turn to foreign policy, Paul says it is on this front that he finds himself most at odds with the GOP. However, he confides that he seldom talks about his foreign-policy positions, because what the voters really ...

New PAC To Funnel Anti-Gay 'White Suburban Christian Republican' Money Into DC Politics

The National Organization for Marriage and allies like Bishop Harry Jackson have been looking for some way to overturn marriage equality legislation that became law in the District earlier this year with overwhelming support from the city’s elected leadership. But NOM and Jackson haven’t been doing so well. On the legal front, they were handed one more major defeat this week. The DC Court of appeals rejected their claim that the Board of Elections and Ethics was wrong to prevent an anti-marriage initiative from going before voters, which the BOEE ruled would violate the city’s Human Rights Act.  From a legal perspective, that leaves only the U.S. Supreme ...

Report: Gore Accuser Failed Lie Detector Test

PORTLAND, Ore. -- A masseuse who accused former Vice President Al Gore of groping and kissing her at a downtown hotel in 2006 failed a lie detector test and had a history of falsely accusing people of mistreating her, according to a report in this week's Portland Tribune newspaper. Tribune editors said they found out about Molly Hagerty's sex abuse allegation against Gore 3 ½ years ago, but they didn't print an article because the newspaper's reporters thought her story lacked credibility. The National Enquirer first reported the story last month and detailed Hagerty's accusations that Gore made unwanted sexual contact at Hotel Lucia in Portland. Tribune editor ...

Levi the Playgirl pinup is now Levi the romantic – or Levi the cheeseball. Levi Johnston, 20, proposed to Bristol Palin, 19, two weeks ago at her Anchorage condo after placing rose petals in the shape of a heart on her bed, the blushing bride-to-be said in a video interview posted by UsMagazine.com Thursday. The daughter of former Alaska governor, Sarah Palin, told the magazine she arrived home from work to find Johnston in her room surrounded by flowers. Johnston then got down on one knee and asked Palin to marry him. "There was no hesitation at all," she said in front of a blushing Johnston. The reunited couple announced their wedding plans on the cover of the magazine ...

Tea Party Billboard Compares Obama To Hitler

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A billboard created by an Iowa tea party group that compares President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin is drawing sharp criticism — even from fellow tea party activists who have condemned it as offensive and a waste of money. The North Iowa Tea Party began displaying the billboard in downtown Mason City last week. The sign shows large photographs of Obama, Nazi leader Hitler and communist leader Lenin beneath the labels "Democratic Socialism," ''National Socialism," and "Marxist Socialism." Beneath the photos is the phrase, "Radical leaders prey on the fearful & naive." The co-founder of the ...

GOP 'Front Group' Accused Of Politicizing Israel, WH Feud

A newly-formed advocacy group, whose leaders say they intend to target the Obama administration over its alleged lack of support for the policies of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, appears to be far more closely tied to the Republican Party than similar groups in the past."The Emergency Committee for Israel’s leadership unites two major strands of support for the Jewish state," Politico's Ben Smith writes. "The hawkish, neoconservative wing of the Republican Party, many of whom are Jewish, and conservative Evangelical Christians who have become increasingly outspoken in their support for Israel."But although Smith suggests that the group was formed to ...

A Republican candidate in Missouri warned Monday that his opponent and the president are blocking the path to salvation.In an interview on the Gina Loudon radio program, Ed Martin said that President Barack Obama and Rep. Russ Carnahan were keeping people from finding the Lord."We're great because we created a place and space where people can be free," said Martin. "And they can choose Christ, they can choose to be faithful. They can worship, and they find their way to the Lord.""And that's one of the things that's most destructive about the growth of government. It's this taking away that freedom.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) to support Wall Street reform; Dems edge closer to 60

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) announced Monday he will vote for Wall Street reform when it comes up for a final vote, all but assuring Democrats the 60 votes they need to pass the legislation. Brown voted for the bill when it first came up for a vote, but had opposed a provision in the conference report that would have imposed $19 billion in taxes on financial firms to pay for the bill. That provision was taken out of the bill by Democrats to secure Brown’s support, but the Massachusetts Republican hadn’t said for sure whether it would be enough. “I appreciate the efforts to improve the bill, especially the removal of the $19 billion bank tax. As a result, it is a better bill ...

Will Republicans Squander Their Midterm Election Advantage?

This should be a Hallelujah year for the Republican Party. It has history on its side — the almost unbroken record of mid-term Congressional losses by the party in the White House — and a sour economy to boot. The authoritative National Journal reports a rising tide of belief that the GOP will not merely gain seats in the House this fall but take control of the place and also capture five, maybe six, more Senate seats. The champagne should already be on ice. And yet all is not serene in the Grand Old Party. Serious questions are being raised by prominent Republicans about where in heaven’s name the party is headed. Mostly, this involves just how far it will lurch to the ...

Oh my! Sounds like someone needs to hold hearings and issue some subpoenas to get to the bottom of this scandal. Yoo hoo, Congressman Waxman: During the last 18 months, Congressman Darrell Issa has made a name for himself: “Obama’s Chief Antagonist.” At least, that’s what the Washington Post recently dubbed the U.S. representative from Vista. Politico.com has called him a “conservative firebrand” whose “daily denunciations draw cheers from partisans and booking from TV producers.” Talking Points Memo described Issa’s first 18 months as ranking Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform as a “tireless quest for ...

Ann Coulter vs. Bill Kristol: Beginnings of a Conservative Schism?

Ann Coulter's recent column "Bill Kristol Must Resign" may have officially kicked off the next great schism within the conservative movement. At issue is the war in Afghanistan -- and, more specifically, whether Republicans should support President Obama's approach to a conflict that has now lasted for Americans far longer than World War II. Mocking neoconservatives, Coulter wrote: "Bill Kristol [editor of The Weekly Standard] and Liz Cheney have demanded that [Michael] Steele resign as head of the RNC for saying Afghanistan is now Obama's war -- and a badly thought-out one at that. (Didn't liberals warn us that neoconservatives want permanent war?)" ...

Democrats launched a new website on Friday highlighting "BP Republicans" meant to highlight different GOP lawmakers' defenses of the oil company. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) seized on Nevada Republican candidate for Senate Sharron Angle's criticism of a $20 billion fund BP created to pay damages to victims of the oil spill, and sought to tie other GOP lawmakers to BP.The DNC set up a new site, BPRepublicans.com, which casts GOP lawmakers as representing the interests of the oil company in Washington, and not their constituents.The first image on the site targets Angle, who called the $20 billion account a "slush fund" on Wednesday, before backing off ...

Too many Republican leaders are acquiescing to a poisonous "demagoguery" that threatens the party's long-term credibility, says a veteran GOP House member who was defeated in South Carolina's primary last month. While not naming names, 12-year incumbent Rep. Bob Inglis suggested in interviews with The Associated Press that tea party favorites such as former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin and right-wing talk show hosts like Glenn Beck are the culprits. He cited a claim made famous by Palin that the Democratic health care bill would create "death panels" to decide whether elderly or sick people should get care. "There were no death panels in the bill ...
