Fox didn't get the response they wanted when the head of the Treasury let them know that the economy has made drastic improvements since the election of Barack Obama.

1. The FOX people just have no place

in their agenda for praise for President Obama.

Obama is all bad, all the time, no matter what, and how dare this guy from the Treasury suggest different?

2. and here is what conservatives will argue

oh the economy is better under a Democrat because of the delayed effects from republican policies.

that is the counter argument i get from many conservatives when i bring this topic up.

4. The famous "policy lag" argument....

They usually act like it's "their turn" too.

3. Ran into my first Trump supporter a couple days ago. I was telling

another person about an ad from Cabela's where they had a Ruger 10/22 on sale for $199. This a--hole jumps in and says if Hillary is elected she is going to take our guns away. I said you guys said the same thing about Obama, do you still have your guns? He starts about how Obama has screwed this country up, the stock market is crashing. That is where I stopped him I said that's bullshit the stock market is less than 1% from its all time high, it has more than doubled since he took office. I decided that it was just a waste of time talking to this moron and just walked away. There is no use arguing with those people no matter what you say or any facts you give them they are lies.

5. I used to be able to laugh at them for watching FOX "News" but now it's CNN too.

6. You can put MSNBC Trump 24/7 in there too.

8. Haven't watched MSNBC since they got rid of Ed and Al.

9. I watch Rachel once in a great while, can't stand

Mathews. I watched Ed nearly everyday. I wonder if their ratings have improved since they went Trump 24/7.

11. They claim those prison shows are ratings gold too....

Makes you wonder who gets those ratings boxes.

7. And they probably think the idiot son was a great president

Not that the market is the be all and end all of economic indicators, but I remember someone posting something on here that historically, the market has always done better under Democratic presidents.

10. I don't know anything that hasn't improved since "W" left n/t

12. You can't talk sense to these people.

Plenty of them still fervently believe that he's going to take their guns, deny old people medical care, jack everyone's taxes way up, and more. Just yesterday my father told my aunt she better hurry up and get her knees replaced before Obama stops Medicare from paying for that operation (my aunt is 71). He was being serious.

13. Fox News is not a news organization
