Funny. According to many on the right, the country went straight downhill after the Democrats "took control" in 2006.


I wonder if they know about your definition...?

Where are you seeing all this "control"? And, since last year too??? Elections were in November, true. But the new house members weren't sworn in until this year. Be honest here... are you really this dense or just purposefully ignorant?
See post #32, please.

It only took 18 months for the Harding administration, not 10 years.

LOL, you've an amusing idea of math. Not that it comes as a surprise anymore. So, according to you, everything was wonderful until Jan 2007 when republicans were kicked out of the office and democrats were in.

I agree. Anyone with an ounce of common sense can see that this administration is failing badly. There is no turning around now and I think we are going over the waterfall in a teacup. The only answer to a successful recovery, a real recovery, is to remove Obama in 2012 and replace him with someone who understands the economy.

With gasoline prices lower and employment increasing as well as an sitting Democratic President running against some Right Wing Loony Tune I expect President Obama will have another term.
I Obama is your definition of successful, then where do I sign up with the Loony Tune?
