Democrats: Economy better now than it was before Obama By Michael O'Brien - 09/07/10 01:29 PM ET
The economy is in a better position now than it was when President Obama took office, Democrats argued Tuesday.
The White House and a top congressional leader made the case that the economy has improved under Democratic control of government, though polls showed voters are less convinced.
"I think by virtually any measure, our economy is a better place than it was two years ago," White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said at his daily briefing.
The assertion came amid new polls showing confidence slipping in Democrats' ability to handle the economy.
Forty-six percent of U.S. adults said they trust Republicans to handle the economy, compared to 43 percent who trust Democrats, according to a CNN/Opinion research poll released Tuesday. That's a reversal from just a year ago, when Americans trusted Democrats, 53-39 percent, over Republicans to handle the economy.
Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), the chairman of House Democrats' campaign committee, said that while the economy was fragile, it was still improved.
"We're a lot better off than we were 18 months ago, but we're not where we want to be," he said Tuesday morning during an appearance on CNN.

Fibbs is a lying sack of poop. There are many people for whom the economy is worse than it was 2 years ago... for 2 years ago, they had jobs. Now they don't. Are they going to vote 'Rat?? I think not.

Joke of the day, right?
I got Gibbs figured out:
Virtually Meaning and Definition= "Virtually Meaning and Definition. (adv.) In a virtual manner; in efficacy or effect only, and not actually"-
ex thinkexist.com › Dictionary
or maybe Gibbs is living in a virtual world, viz.
"b : of, relating to, or existing within a virtual reality "

These guys must all get their training from the Iraqi Information Minister known as "Baghdad Bob!" You could actually see the collapse of Saddam's military in the background on tv while Baghdad Bob was claiming victory.
Where is he now, in the USA training Democrats? Or, was he originally trained by Democrats? I do not know.
Democrats are deceptive and as dumb as a box of rocks. And I hope I don’t offend any rocks!!!
Hell, the Democrats held the majority FOUR years ago!
The reason Gibbs pinpointed the two year mark, is because that's when his boss took over. In other words, they're STILL running against George Bush!
If it wasn't clear to most people before this, that Gibbs is a moronic, robotic mouthpiece, then this WHOPPER of a lie oughta do it.
