Did a search but couldn't find this in the FR database. Slightly old, but worth a laugh, I would think. I saw this article polluting my Facebook feed today, so I figured Freepers would have a field day with it. Have at it!

I’m sorry, but we didn’t lose our AAA credit rating because Obama and this Congress were tight with the purse strings.

Unbelievable!!!

Even some of the lefty fact checkers say this Marketwatch article is bull.

I’m sure this could be true in Bizarro World United States.

Whatr’s happened to Forbes? This is insane.

Why won't anyone say it?

Obama inherited the Pelosi economy!

She had control of the purse strings 2 years before Obama showed up. Why is her name never mentioned when Obama talks about the mess he inherited? I'm sick of her getting away with being a well respected incompetent babbling nincompoop.

Thanks for the posting. The Forbes and the original Marketwatch articles have been making their rounds on FB. Having the Freeper brain trust generate and list all of the references for rapid refudiation is a great time saver.
