"The Obama-nation has started Dow down 486"

Let's get the real story out.

On the day Clinton took office the Dow stood at 3241. On the day he left office it stood at 9771. That was more than a triple.

Bush took over at Dow 9771. Today the Dow closed at 9139...or a loss of over 6% in nearly 8 years.

Oh, and on top of that Bush nearly doubled the national debt.

Great work "W".
