Well, I'm certainly not trying to "brag" that it's a good thing that it's happened, but you have to give a person both the credit and the blame for something happening.

Obama most likely didn't want those cuts to happen on the state and local level, but GUESS WHAT? THEY DID.

You conveniently ignore facts when they are laid at your feet. I see that your style of "debate," if you can call it that, is to ignore facts and not argue with real numbers or real facts. Anyone who thinks that this President has done ANY good whatsoever is a tool for the Democrat party.

There's a book out that I know you keep close to heart, you use the tactics that it espouses to the letter. You're not fooling anyone with half a brain.

So for everyone who loves Obama...here is a question. Let's say he gets another four years. Do you think the economy will improve or is everyone okay with this country staying this way?

Please do not use the "Romney won't do any better."

That's the question isn't it? What Obama supporters think is irrelevent, they would vote for him even if he ate live puppies on tv. It is what undecideds think, tht matters. I would be shocked if many undecideds walked ino the voting both and thought to themselves, things are going great, I want 4 more years of this.

This talk about "facts" is hilarious given that the real fact is Obama has indeed seen 1 million more jobs created during his time in office than Bush did at the same point in his first term. Please return to talking about eating puppies and continuing to ignore reality.

You should do yourself a favor and re-analyze exactly how those "facts" square up in relative terms. I'll let you figure out exactly what that means (ie. Think4Yourself).

The bottom line is that - although not great - the economy is better in July 2012 than it was in November of 2008.
