This are dramatically worse and getting worse. Negative econoimic growth, for example. Lookk at everything, not just a snippet here and a factoid there.
It is indisputable that the economy is far better than the one Obama inherited. What negative economic growth? GDP forecasts are all positive. The last time growth was negative was 2008-2009.
as america starts coming apart at the seams, no doubt as a result, in large part, of the obama campaign of divisiveness, it is obvious that the depraved duo, obama and biden, need to resign, poste haste. I implore them to do the honorable, decent thing, and submit their resignations at first light. America will thank them for finally getting something right.
Hey, did y'all see those goalposts move? Some idiot posted that the fundamentals were sound and they clearly weren't. Job growth has been less than satisfactory, but we've gone from net job loss of 800,000 bloody jobs a month to actual job growth. That is not making things worse. Things are, in fact, better. Not great, because the country was in a freakin' tailspin 2008 - but better. Deal, mmkay?
That wasnt the goalpost moving, that was your quarterback running the wrong way.
It is NOT better to have more people on welfare and record numbers living in poverty. Your claim that things are better is utterly ridiculous unless of course you're only concerned with the "rich", and be damned with those who are now living in poverty.
Remember, you and your left wing kooks celebrated these policies, and on one thread you guys cant stop whining about things like income inequality, and then you jump right onto a different thread celebrating how great things are.
Your post was a response based upon Robin's assertion that the Democrats winning in 2006, and not the 14 year control by the GOP, that caused the economic collapse.
What an utterly ridiculous, uneducated posting.
The GOP hasnt had control for 14 years..

The Democrats not only blocked mortgage reforms OVER A DOZEN TIMES, but they wanted MORE subprime loans to be issued, even calling to remove the substandard 3% equity requirements of Fannie and Freddie saying that there shouldnt have been any.
Why don tyou return the favor and tell us what GOP policies caused it.. Come on, follow your own standard

Is this the new dumb math they teach you in elementary school? If one person in Congress is a GOP member, then the actions of hundreds of Democrats should be blamed on the GOP? Wow you must have very low standards for Democrats.. Dont worry, we share your concern

if government needs to artificiually inflate the GDP by pumping in dollars, its not growth.. If I give you $5 and then have to remove that $5 from you later, your net gain is ZERO. In fact when we later have to remove $6 from the economy to add interest to the amount, the growth is NEGATIVE.
Yes, you might feel richer today, but thats only if you think $5 is a lot of money, so continue to party like its 1999.. I wonder how far you'll get.
Is the economy better, yes, but the economy was improving before Obama even passed a dam spending bill into law. It would have happened regardless of who the president is because THATS WHAT ECONOMIES DO..

I really hope you were not one of the complete idiots posting on here (under a different username)who was cheerleading for the Bush regime and now calling for a POTUS to resign..that would be pretty sickening to say the least.

Even if a lefty was living in a cardboard box, eating rats as the main meal and bugs as the side dish they would still claim Obama is a success.

They are the party of low expectations.
That's pretty ironic considering that when Bush was President, the right-wing papered over every misdeed and failure (i.e. leaked name of CIA agent -- no problem; started war with made-up evidence -- that's ok; fired Asst AG's for not prosecuting Dems for political reasons -- that's ok too) and ended his term with no net job gains in 8 years, now are claiming that liberals defend Obama.

lol, if you don't have an answer pull out the Bush card.
Like I said, the party of low expectations... and the party of excuses.
