Stocks gain on bargain hunting





NEW YORK (AP) — A wave of bargain hunting revived stocks Tuesday, sending the Dow Jones industrials up 230 points as investors sought to capitalize on three sessions of sharp losses. Still, the advance was fragile and much of its momentum faded late in the day. Analysts weren't surprised, noting that investors are still skeptical about market conditions, The Dow closed up 230.46, or 2.9%, at 8274.09, according to preliminary calculations, after rising as much as 374 earlier in the session. It was the average's first triple-digit gain in more than a week and followed a three-day, 692-point losing streak. The market's broader stock indicators also closed higher, despite some pullback late in the session. The Standard & Poor's 500 index climbed 24.97, or 3.0%, to 859.57, and the Nasdaq composite index rose 53.44, or 4.4%, to 1259.45.

I think Keillor would agree with me that George Bush is the Confederacy's revenge on this nation for the Civil War.

Bush has reversed 45 years of advance in civil rights legislation in 18 months.

He's destroyed fiscal responsibility for the sake of a tax holiday for his bribers.

He's a belligerent who would rather fight than think.

He's a moron who would would rather destroy the middle class than disappoint the aristocracy.

He's a criminal who would pardon himself, given half a chance.

In short, he's the worst President ever.
