"I'm not concerned about a double-dip recession, I'm concerned that the fact that the recovery we're on is not producing jobs as quickly as I wanted to happen. Prior to this month, we have seen three months of very robust job growth in the private sector. And, so we are very encouraged by that. This month, we still saw job growth in the private sector, but it slowed down," President Obama said at a press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Same old crap. Presidents lie. Bush was saying that everything was roses, up until the very last moment when he couldn't lie about things any longer.
They have to lie. They all have to lie. It's part of the confidence game.
And if you don't like current events just look at history.
How long did the talking heads deny the Great Depression ?
Crash of 1929 and they didn't admit the US had a real problem until 1934.
They spent 5 years with the ups and downs proclaiming it was all temporary.

Crash of 1929 and they didn't admit the US had a real problem until 1931 and even then it was marginalized as "passing".
At least Democrats had the balls to vote for it. Republicans voted against it, bashed it publicly, and then privately lobbied for the funds to go to their districts.
Try looking at it from a different angle.
The democrats were in complete, and utter control of the executive and legislative branches, they voted to steal hundreds of billions from the treasury, and divvy it up for ONLY democratic party districts. The republicans can all vote NO on this legislative theft of taxpayer money by the democrats, but they are completely powerless to stop them, and it will occur anyway.
So here is the quandary for republicans. since the bills were signed into law, and the theft was occurring - do they sit back, arms akimbo, and allow this theft to force their constituents to pay hundreds of billions to democrat districts, or do they try and at least hold onto some of their constituent's hard earned money.
Let me try going at this another way. Let's say the democrats are storming into the bank where my money is kept, and they strart stealing my cash and valuables from my safe deposit box. If the democrats ignore my shouted objections to stop stealing, how can you fault me for trying to grab some of my own cash and property, before those thieves take it all?

So which is it, is Bush a genius with economics and investments, and he knew this economic collapse was coming way before the rest of the world, or is he an idiot w/o a clue of what was going on?
BTW, did Clinton know there was a dot-com bubble and the companies like Enron were committing fraud? Did 0bama know his policies these past two years were going to fail, and gives us a "double dip" recession and mortgage collapse? Or is GW Bush the only smart one out of all three presidents?
Or maybe Bush Derangement Syndrome doesn't have any room for common sense and introspection?
It's not a "Double dip" as in we've seen growth and then decline, we've been experiencing declines for over 3 years now and the decline is going to worsen.
No wonder he's not worried..he's not to blame for any current downturn.
It was the earthquake in Japan, the Euro crisis, heck high gas prices.
Anything BUT the administration policies and runaway spending habits.

With U.S. unemployment at 9.1 percent, Obama has blamed outside forces for impeding the economy, including high fuel prices, the earthquake in Japan and the euro zone crisis.
