But, TB, you have been telling us all the economic news is wonderful (just too good to be true) under Obama.

You really do have a completely dichotomous, bifurcated, Manichean view of the world, don't you, CARL?

The bad economic news is that Spain and Italy are about to hit us like a ton of bricks. Based on what's going on with yields right now the exhausting of the ECB's LTRO program [even its big backfire since a lot of the banks used the funds to buy trouble assets that are now underwater], there is an unusually high chance of at least one 500 point down day within the next month or so.

That's because of austerity - QE is being wound down.  It should be being expanded radically.
