Given a surplus and 8 years to show us what they could do, George Bush and the Republicans had us on the sure path to the next Great Depression. Republicans have no clue about running an economy, only scream about taxes. With clueless Pubs doing their best to obstruct his path while failing to contribute any useful ideas on how to fix the mess, this president took office and tackled the problem. Bush had 8 years and couldn't do it. Obama had only a few months. Result? Recession over! Credit to Obama.

Thanks for letting us know otherwise I would think we were in the middle of a depression. What a relief!

I didn't bother to read your link because I didn't think I would find words that explained how these fine economists managed to say that we have been out of the recession for 14 months. That is June of 2009 and somehow few people I know will be believing the recession has been over for 14 months.

So Bush's TARP legislation WORKED and Obama's "stimulus bill" was a waste of money passed by LYING to the public???
