Plenty of tax free income out there.

rally on Wall Street sent stocks to fresh multiyear highs as investors welcomed the Federal Reserve's new bond-buying plan.

The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 207 points, or 1.6%, while the Nasdaq rose 1.3% and the S&P 500 gained 1.6%.

The day's gains pushed the Dow and S&P 500 to their highest closing levels since December 2007, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq finished at its highest level since November 2000.

Yeah I'd say President Obama is doing a great job on the economy.

When Obama doesn't take responsibility for anything what does it matter what he gets blamed for.

Regardless... the fed aint Obama.

Neither are the oil companies and speculators, but it doesn't stop the right wingers on here from laying the high cost of gas at the President's feet.

Just like the left did when Bush was President? Or did you forget how Bush and Cheyney manipulated oil prices to enrich their oil friends?

True, however, ever since Obama signed that Stimulus into Law the Markets have been on a bull run from 676 to over 1400, and the Dow 6400 to over 13,500 .......... Obama has been great for business.......... now if the Republicans would only come in out of the rain...

Obama shut down Keystone.

Did you forget that? I lay that at Obama's feet.

With all the turmoil in the middle east, wouldn't it be a good idea to have a secure supply of fuel?

Heard of QE1, QE2 & QE3?

Those programs artificially inflate the market.

Obama had nothing to do with that.

YES, because he is commander and chief.

His policies and stimulus made it possible.

You and I both know, if the stock market and DOW were in the toilet, you repubs would be the FIRST to blame him!

You lay the blame directly on him for all the "bad", so why wouldn't he get credit for the good?

So...you blame Obama for the Stock Market doing poorly, then do not give him credit when it improves under his policies?!

WOW!

Nice logic!

Sounds pretty desperate to me:)

I didn't forget, as I recall there was something about environmental impact that was the cause of the shutdown, besides if Keystone ruptured like the BP oil rig did, who would you be blaming for that? hmmmmmm? I'll give you three guesses and the first two don't count.

As I recall the standard line from the Right is Bush isn't President anymore. So why do you keep bringing him up?

Nebraska's Republican Gov. Dave Heineman sent a letter today to President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, asking them to deny a federal permit for a pipeline that would carry Canadian oil through his state, all the way to the Texas Gulf Coast.

Heineman wrote that he is opposed to TransCanada's Keystone XL pipeline because its planned route lies directly over a critical aquifer.

Give Obama credit even though he didn't earn it.

Pathetic.

If Obama can't handle the tough part of the job he shouldn't be in it.

Didn't forget it at all.

But you see, Nebraska isn't the portion that needed Obama's approval.

They've since approved an alternate route.

American ingenuity solves the problem.

But you're begging the question...

With all the turmoil in the middle east, wouldn't it be a good idea to have a secure supply of fuel?

Daily Horoscope for May 25

Taurus

Try hard not to let money or possessions come between you and a friend today, unless it's over something that has got to be sorted out before it goes any further. For instance, if someone owes you money and has consistently failed to pay it back, this is a good day for mentioning it to them and finding out what's going on. If necessary, you may have to be quite vehement.
