ken..."The worst mistake of the Clinton Presidency was to sign Gramm-Leach-Bliley. It was deregulation which directly led to the financial crisis."....

So it was a democrat president to blame for the financial meltdown of US economy... he should be shot with a ball of his own poop...the dumb ass! :-) Or worse ..he should be forced to spend a month or 2 of cuddle time with barney.

Stocks are set to lose ground for the second straight day after receiving another sobering message about weakness in the jobs market. Futures fell after the Labor Department said initial jobless claims rose unexpectedly last week to a seasonally adjusted 472,000. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast claims would fall to 452,000.
