I'm not sure of your point here, the 3rd quarter GDP is what it is including all it's components and their impact on the economy. Speculation on what it would be under different conditions isn't relevant to Toro's initial post.

White House Quietly Releases Plans For 3,415 Regulations Ahead Of Thanksgiving Holiday

While Americans are focused on what delicious foods they’re going to eat for Thanksgiving, the White House is focused on releasing its massive regulatory agenda — marking the fifth time the Obama administration has released its regulatory road map on the eve of a major holiday.

The federal Unified Agenda is the Obama administration’s regulatory road map, and it lays out thousands of regulations being finalized in the coming months. Under President Barack Obama, there has been a tradition of releasing the agenda late on Friday — and right before a major holiday.

“It’s become an unfortunate tradition of this administration and others to drop these regulatory agendas late on a Friday and right before a holiday,”Matt Shudtz, executive director of the Center for Progressive Reform, told The Hill newspaper.

The White House’s regulatory agenda for spring 2014 was released on the eve of the Memorial Day weekend, when millions of people set out on weekend getaways or family vacations.

“It’s unfortunate because it’s an update on protections for Americans of all stripes,” Shudtz told the Hill. “It lays out the administration’s plan and it deserves more attention.”

But the White House may have a good reason to do so because its Unified Agenda for fall 2014 includes some 3,415 regulations– more than the last regulatory agenda, and one that includes 189 rules that cost more than $100 million.

Federal lawmakers from both parties, along with companies from virtually every sector of the economy, have opposed the rule, saying it greatly expands the EPA’s power to regulate even small bodies of water on private property.

“The ‘waters of the U.S.’ rule may be one of the most significant private property grabs in U.S. history,” said Louisiana Republican Sen. David Vitter, adding “they want to take another step toward outright permitting authority over virtually any wet area in the country, while at the same time providing a new tool for environmental groups to sue private property owners.”

It should better... If we fully unleashed our energy production, open more federal lands to it, we'd have a budget surplus.. State and federal governments.... Obama's economy is pathetic actually.

The point is very clear: a failed attempt to deflect from the economic good news by conservatives fearful of that news reflecting positively on the president.

Remember that for most on the right the facts are irrelevant – all that matters is how you 'feel.'

Reality check

3.9% is not "smoking" growth, it is slightly above average.

We've become so accustomed to substandard GDP growth, that under 4% looks great!

Well, it's not. Post recession recoveries are typically far more robust.

It's like being in prison for 10 years without seeing a woman,..... Suddenly Whoopie Goldberg looks "smoking"...

 

[SteadyMercury]

It is the best six months in over a decade, and 4.25% over those six months is more than slightly above the long term average of 3.27%. Taken in the face of the current global economy and the growth of other developed nations it is outstanding.

why would austerity lead to a slowdown rather than a speed up?
Remember the basic rule of economics is, the less the soviet liberal govt does the stronger the economy will be.
