How much has the value of your home gone up since Obama was sworn in?

How much has your pay increased?

How much less do you have to pay for everything?

How many of you ether lost your job in the last 4 years and got a better job?

How many of you feel that your future is better as long as Obama or the Dems are in charge?

Things were bad the last year under Bush but it can't be all put at his feet. If that's the case than everything that's going wrong or right in the economy today is Obama's fault.....which is impossible.

If you think the economy is doing swell then why is it your home isn't worth as much as it used to be worth. Why is it so hard to find a qualified buyer willing to give you fair market value for your home. Why are so many homeowners holding mortgages that are "Underwater". Why did Obama float a program to solve this problem....then promptly drop it to start the GOP War on Women?

How much has your pay increased under Obama. How much has your grocery bill gone up. How much has your utility bill gone up. How much has your phone bill, your cable bill, your internet bill gone up?

How much has the price of gas gone up since Obama took the White House. The price when he took over was $1.80.......it's now $4.00 in states like CA, NY, NJ, FL, AK, HI,......

Be honest. Is the dollar worth as much as it used to be worth?

The MSM reported in 2005 that we had an anemic job growth of 150,000 new jobs in one month.

Friday the MSM reported positive job growth of 115,000 in April......which was less than half of what it was reported in Feb.

I guess your outlook depends on how it's reported.
 
Could Bush say that america was better off under him than under Clinton?

We are still going downhill. It does not matter which party occupies the WH.

Clinton isn't president.

Also Clinton had a GOP congress that wasn't set on fucking up the economy, Bush did......but that is nether here nor there.

The choice is between Obama, a president that decided not to work with congress after two years of massive majorities, and Bush who had zero cooperation from congress his entire term.

Try again.

Oh, it matters. Clinton was a Democrat. They economy is much improved under Obama. But the damage to this country after 8 years under Bush will take more than a measly 3 years to fix. Considering the enormous debt left by Bush, I suspect it will take decades.

Worse, Republicans have publicly stated they would do everything they could to bring down this president.

Worst, the true cost of the Iraq war has barely begun. How much do you think it will cost this country to take care of tens of thousands of Americans maimed in Iraq? Republicans would just "let them die". Democrats will make sure they get the care they deserve. No one could possibly believe a party that wants to cut day care and lies a country into war would take care of returning American servicemen. It's not possible.

Yes.
Clinton experienced several terrorist attacks and his responses only encouraged more. Clinton was the beneficiary of Reagan's policies that allowed him to cut defense and reduce the deficit.
UE was lower under Bush than Clinton. And Bush never had a subordinate blowing him in the Oval Office.

So it's gonna take much more than 3 years for Obama to fix the economy but Reagan did it in 3. Reagan created over 10 million jobs. Obama claims to have created over 4 million.....but less people are working now than when he took office.

Carter had the economy overall in a worse state than it was in 09'. Reagan got it done. Sure he had to spend some but he got it done. Obama spent 4 times as much and he still hasn't scratched the surface.

I guess it's not how much you spend but what you spend it on that matters.

Every one of them were already under the department of Veteran Affairs. Btw, how many soldiers have loss of limbs, 100,000? Probably not. Many of them will need long-term care, but eventually they will not need it. Some will, and some won't. Btw, if you want to give to Wounded Warriors then just click on this. http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org/

Obama wants to cover 30 million Americans with Obamacare. (Notice how it started out as Universal Healthcare and now it's 30 million) The number of injured soldiers is a drop in the bucket compared to that. Sure, the idea of it is compassionate, but not realistic. We already have laws that allow anyone, even illegals, the right to medical treatment.

The stock market is up but volume is down.....that means less are getting richer than before.

The small investor is not participating as much as before.
 
It's a good question..

Is America better off under Obama than it was under Bush? The voters need to know

Bush given a Dow at 10750, left a Dow at 8150
Obama given a Dow at 8150......now at 13,000

Bush given an economy adding 400,000 jobs a month......left an economy losing 770,000 jobs a month
Obama given an economy losing 770,000 jobs a month ....now gaining 150,000 plus

Bush given a robust financial and manufacturing sector....left the financial and auto sector in ruins
Obama saved the financial sector and the auto sector

Bush given a nation at peace......started two wars in which he blundered the execution
Obama settled Bush's wars

Bush allowed the worst terrorist attack in history
Obama killed the SOB who did it

Let America decide if we are better off
