“Of course at that time he was assuming what would follow was a natural cyclic recovery.”

A lot of people assumed the same thing at the time, I was more inclined to believe Gerald “there is no recovery” Celente. I think there are really a number of reasons for the problem other than Obama’s obvious incompetence plus his avowed desire to destroy America. Think what shape we would be in if he were competent! He would have the destruction completed by now and would not even need to run for another term. Obama has added greatly to the problem though and to expect him to fix it is like expecting the mugger who just shot you three times and took your money to stop the bleeding and save your life.
Bush struck the match that started the house on fire, but barry is holding the firehose that is dousing that house with gasoline.
Obama complains Bush didn’t know where he was headed and drove into the ditch.
But Obama doesn’t seem to know where the ditch is, or the road even after we’re in the ditch.
“...We didn’t know how bad it was” -—> how is that different from Bush? At least Obama has the advantage of hindsight, but he still has no clue.
The latest Obama talking point is it takes 10 years to turn an economy around.
What a f**king joke the Blame Thrower is!
If bad lags (from GOP policies) are at work during Oblamo Administration, how come Clinton ‘good economy’ wasn’t caused by the good effect of George Bush 1’s previous presidency & policies?
How come Rush isn’t pointing that out?
This is basically the same argument that you would have heard in 1936. After the election in 1932, Roosevelt really didn’t move the economy a single inch...other than hiring a massive number of folks onto the US gov’t payroll. The entire election of ‘36’ could be blamed on Hoover, almost in the same fashion that Bush gets blamed today. Had everyone in 1936 and 2012...worked to fix the banking situation and get them stabilized...then you would have had a fairly good step forward, but no one ever went in that direction.
