And unlike Clinton's bubble, this is real growth. Clinton's SEC allowed a multi level marjketing scheme to be committed by the dotcom... all of them California liberals.
And the GDP grew by over 1 trillion dollars in the last 18 months.

I don't really give Bush the credit for the stock market, but the fact is, his tax breaks helped America recover. Our economy is strong. Liberals blamed him when the stock market when down, which was stupid, and now that it is up again, they are blaming him for not doing anything to help it up. When a group of people only look for the negative in a leader, rationality has completely left the discussion.

DEE DEE DEE!! So how much did you make off this week in the market? WAS THAT A ZERO--OH YEAH--I THOUGHT I HEARD A ZERO!!!!!
The Dow/Stock Market IS AN IRRELEVANT ECONOMIC INDICATOR WHEN IT COMES TO REAL WEATH!! What you talking about is how the top 10% of the wealthy, who do 80% of the stock dealings, are doing business.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU OR I IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS.
GET INFORMED SO YOU WON'T LOOK SO FOOLISH--NEXT!!

Bush deserves NO credit for the DOW hitting 12k. It is a reallocation of capital-- from energy and real-estate back to blue
chip stocks.
And, the Dow was at 11800 or so in 2000/2001 timeframe. At one point it dropeed to high 7000's. Its taken the better part of his presidency to get BACK to what we had before.
Go learn something before you spew ignorant questions.

If it's good for the middle class, it's good for the country. Let us not forget it's the middle class that makes the USA the greatest country in the world.

I'll give Bush the credit when you give Clinton credit for the increases in the 90's.

Yahoo. The Dow is up 100 points in only 6 years. It's almost as good a return as a savings account.
Yahoo. Bush is is not severely retarded. Only moderately retarded.

"Reallocation?"
Is that something like what Billybob Clinton did when He raped the Military financially to pad the Deficit so He could claim to have eliminated it.
Therefore making America vulnerable to terrorists by creating a weak military.
Of course I'm sure He made some money when He sold Nuclear technology to North Korea, were reaping the benefits of that now....Gee thanks Billybob!

It's easier to get the economy strong when you shrink the middle class, which he has done.
Clinton had the dow at over 11,000 before he left office. It's not a big deal what Bush has done.
