You should have written this article. Your comments make much more sense and reflect a position that needs to be better presented. There might be some improvement in the GDP, but it is mostly related to the private sector getting leaner and more productive as a response to the recession, pent up demand and other non-political factors. Obama made it worse than it should be as the recovery should be roaring by now and not simply limping along.
