How anyone can ignore the Fact that we have been in, and are still pulling out of, the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression is what is beyond comprehension. I guess you are one of those that do not believe the government creats jobs yet whine that the government has not created enough jobs.

Maybe it's because I'm not an Obama apologist like you? Try some reality for a change!......

Deception and self-deception are the core tools in the right-wing arsenal.

Economically, Could Obama Be America's Worst President? - Forbes

Sorry, but reality includes ALL the Facts, something that seems to not be in the skill set of many Cons, nothing new there.

The Great Depression didn't happen overnight. It took a decade of deficit spending by government and inviduals (the Roaring 20's) before the bubble burst.

We had the very same thing happen with the Great Recession.

To blame it on Obama is ridiculous as is blaming it on Bush.
What we had was another decade of deficit spending and asset bubbles and jobless recoveries..the Roaring 2000's you might say.

If lefties understood basic economics, they'd know that taking $1 out of the economy to pump $1 back into it, doesnt equate to $2, and thus you'd never vote again for another stupid Democrat who indicates it does.

public stupidity, arsenal of the left, and of coruse the need to perpetuate poverty.. Arent you proud?

Yeah of course an Obama apologist knows more about economics than does Forbes. You buy into Obama's amateurish handling of it instead....lmao!

They do. It is nonsense to claim otherwise.

There the right-wingers go again: Rationalizing moral turpitude with gibberish claiming that others aren't as smart as they are.

Except there wasn't a "bubble" and we had full employment in the post recession 2000s.
