Carney: Economy Has "Vastly Improved" Since Obama Was Sworn In
Real Clear Politics ^

Posted on 07/21/2011 11:29:59 AM PDT by NMEwithin

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney: "Well, two things remain uncontestably true. The economy is vastly improved from what it was when Barack Obama was sworn into office as president. We were in economic free-fall. There were predictions that we were headed to the second Great Depression. We were losing up to, over 700,000 jobs a month, we were contracting at greater than 6 percent -- our economy was. So, the economy has improved. It has not improved enough. "Well, there's no question that we face headwinds, and the president has been very direct about that. And we need to do everything we can, across the front, to ensure we're doing what we can to spur growth, spur job creation."

It is true.

Carney cited his own case as proof.

“Well, two things remain uncontestably true. The economy is vastly improved from what it was when Barack Obama was sworn into office as president. “

This is a gift to the Republican nominee. This is as bad, if not worse than when McCain said the fundamentals of the economic system were sound, just before it collapsed.

If the GOP can’t beat Obama in 12, it’s time to pull the plug and roll out the Tea Party.

That’s surely the problem with a lot of the administration - one too many times spent with Ms. Mary Jane - that or I am living in another universe. And, certain Americans STILL believe this creeps.
