Dow 10K, Health Care, Politics
EmailOn our special extended roundtable: Will, Krugman, Tapper, Noonan and Dionne- debate the Dow’s 10,000 surge, health care and how the 2010 midterms are shaping up in the final few weeks before election day.
WILL: How do you say "a quarter of a trillion dollars" in Chinese?
For the response and the rest of today’s roundtable discussion, watch HERE:

Dow 10k? Last time this happened oil was at $17 a barrel and gold was something like $250 an ounce. Apparently we are a lot poorer already. Gerald Celente has an excellent interview on Russia Today that discusses this dichotomy. It is interesting that RT has more meaningful discussions than our mainstream media mess. Very sad indeed.

Last time the DOW was at 10k was October 2008 (documented reality).Gas was about $3.50 a gallon and oil was at $70 a barrel (documented reality). And gold was at about $750 an ounce (documented reality).
Feel free to look up REALITY yourself – your post is ridiculous fantasy.

jhw539 – Oops I meant the first time it got to 10k in 1999. Thanks for the lack of love as usual.

jhw539 – Thanks for the correction so I could correct myself. It appears that you do your homework. Why you take the positions you do is beyond me given the fiscal insanity of Obama’s programs. You are very partisan which is unfortunate.

Krugman attributes public outrage at the growing deficit to “bad reporting”, dismisses the billion dollar costs associated to the healthcare proposal as “pocket change”, and disputes what is now common knowledge – that the U.S. is a debtor nation to China.
He might have the “Conscience of a Liberal”, but Krugman seems alarmingly disassociated from reality.
