And none of that existed before 2008? Not so.

Are you KIDDING? Are you really blaming all of that on Obama, when we were losing hundreds of thousands of jobs in the months before he took office?

You guys are utterly laughable.

Well, now I know why our debt was doubled lol.

No. John McCain chosing Sarah Palin as his running mate was indicative of the short-sighted, aging frat boy mentality decision making of the GOP.

(also see, Michael Steele and Herman Cain)

You are laughable. Everyone's fault but Obama's.

Clearly it is not all Obama's fault.

Let me ask the question again:

Is this really the best America can do under 4 years of Obama?

5.6 Trillion in new debt for --

-Less total jobs in America
-New jobs have 70% the pay of jobs lost
-93% of people who got a new job did so for less pay

Yet more proof Obama is just 4 more years of Bush.
And to think people tried to scare voters with that McSame nickname.
