No...its a legitimate question. What is Obamas plan to get us out of the mess that he says Bush created, and he has accelerated?
Please explain to me how inheriting an economy that is shedding 6-800 thousand jobs a month and turning it to an economy that is gaining 150K jobs a month is accelerating the fall of the economy?

Present a chart that proves that the economy, job growth, the housing market, Wall Street, manufacturing and consumer confidence has not grown since Bush left and Obama took over. And while you're at it, tell us how many wars Obama has started since his first term and how many times he has raised taxes.
Actually Congress being one third of our government does shoulder some blame, more than the WH if you want to be honest and that's both the house and senate. Being up late last night, watching interviews and such, it's obvious the House Republicans are NOT going to budge on anything. We have the fiscal cliff coming up as fast as a rocket and you have the House who are so bitter and vindictive that they are not willing to work with the administration to make sure we do not fall off that cliff.
So you believe the problem lies with the conservative members of congress who wants to cut spending instead of the democrats who want to spend more. Ever think of the 16 thrillion dollar debt we have. It isn't going away anytime soon with Obama the spender on green energy flops.

If Dems actually show up for the mid-term election, it's curtains for Republicans. This obstructionism may have cost them the Whitehouse but they still don't get it. The Republicans who are capable of putting this country before their own hatred need to take the wheel, otherwise they will become an endangered species. People are not as stupid as they think. As much as they try to blame the POTUS for everything that goes wrong, most people in this day understand that he has limited power and that there are three branches of government.

Obama prints money making food and gas prices go up. We are all poorer now because of Obama and his bail out green agenda flops .

I'll wait for your answer.
So what were "gaining" 150k jobs a month, what happened to the ones that totally gave up looking for work. Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

They are gradually going back to looking for work. That's WHY the Labor Participation Rate went up last month and the U6 (discouraged workers) unemployment rate went DOWN a bit while the U3 (those actively LOOKING for work) unemployment rate went up a bit.
You know how to post the link but apparently don't know how to READ the reports.
