    I'll leave it to others to call it as they see it, debunked. Your patterns are clear, and it isn't appropriate. Yet you (and Mia, of late, as "twins") who employ these tactics, have the temerity to accuse me of "attacking" when I take issue with your point of view, and very concretely show how, and why. We are at the end of pages, and you finally find that your entire line has been flawed - when I posted so, very early on.

    Wouldn't it have been easier to actually see the facts I provided to you, admit you were wrong, and move on - than to rely on repeated personal attacks? Sincerely?

    You are still wrong on most of what you think I say. Now you will probably use this post as your point in making everything I say wrong because I admitted to being corrected on one item.

    So be it.

    Have you found the post where I put you on ignore yet?

    Gotta acknowledge, IMV, that NPT caught an OP that was off target. The research he produced shows as much.

    While his first month research in 2000 shows a market that was reasonably steady, we did move into a recession during the beginning of the Bush administration. At some point the media "could have been blaming Bush". But, Debunked, I think you might want to replicate NPT's research to prove it.

    Meanwhile we are being overwhelmed with bad economic news. People are getting laid off, spending is way down, businesses across the board are in big trouble.

    You want to blame it on Obama or Bush and tie it into the election...hm....don't know. This is amongst the worst economic news ever.

    On the other hand, I gotta admit one other "market thing". I have capital assets. More in real estate than the stock market. On the other hand I don't have the slightest interest in selling.

    If I were interested or considering selling I would take a possible change in capital gains tax rates into consideration. Can't deny it.

    I do suggest debunked, if you wish to make your case you should do the same or equivalent volume of research as NPT did.

    You can say it a million times, debunked, but again, it is your words that betray the attacks you choose to make; no one else's. I do feel sorry for you, because it shames you, and no one else. Perhaps you'll learn another way.

    My problem with just going by memory and not doing the research first. I swear the last election the market dropped and some in the media crying about how it was the fear of Bush type of stuff. Now I question my memory... frustrating, but I will be more careful next time.
    I just wish I could get this guy to understand sentences without reading into them such as all the "personal attack" stuff. Maybe I am just not sensitive enough to see it that way.

    But calling him a stalker isn't personal, except he is currently my PERSONAL stalker.

    Thread closed due to personality disputes. If you want to discuss politics keep the discussions on track.
