gut;1313685 wrote:Note from your chart it pretty much peaked when Obama took office. The crisis was over. What Obama managed to do was squash the recovery.

And what little progress he made is deceptive due to how many people have quit looking for work and dropped out of the workforce. There's been no progress on real employment.

isadore;1313696 wrote:no that is not what is there. That horrendous fall caused by Bush polices was so bad it continued through 2009 into 2010 when President Obama turned it around.

gut;1313710 wrote:No they didn't. With TARP and the auto-bailout, and then stimulus, the economy was fully stabilized. Growth should have been a given. And that's why Obama turned from the economy to Obamakare and other pet projects. The problem is his anti-business agenda threw the breaks on what should have been a slam-dunk of a recovery.

gut;1313711 wrote:I'm not the one living in a fantasy world. You keep making excuses and distorting the facts to prop-up a POTUS that, for some reason, you need to keep mentioning is African American.

Why do you do that? Am I to expect less because Obama is black?!?
