It sucks for defenders of obama when you use truth and fact.
Unfortunately they wouldn't recognize either of those things if they hit them.

Only a CON$ervative would call increasing UE from Clinton's "recession" rate of 3.97% for the whole year of 2000 to Bush's 5.78% a "SUCCESS" worth BRAGGING about.In 2002 the unemployment rate was 5.78. That is compared with the almost TEN PERCENT we have NOW!!!!!!!
Bush was not BLAMING, he was TOUTING SUCCESS! He was saying despite all these things, the economy was going great guns!!!!!!!
CON$ervative REVISIONIST data you mean.
The difference is that Bush was quoting the numbers from the Commerce department AND was doing so after 3 straight quarters of growth.
Note that last part? There were 3 quarters of decline in the GDP and then three quarters of growth. Bush was only citing the Department of Commerce figures to correct the mistaken impression that the economy was going great until he took office and then went into the dumper upon his election.
The finally revised data shows that the economy was already in recession when he took office and his policies brought it back into a growth mode despite 9/11 and the financial scandals that were committed during the Clinton years and prosecuted during the Bush years.
Bush's programs worked.
how are the Big 0's programs doing so far?

The actual group that sets the dates of the beginning and end of recessions, the NBER, gives March 2001 as the beginning of the BUSH recession. Only CON$ervative revisionists give a different date.
Business Cycle Dating Committee, National Bureau of Economic Research

This report is also available as a PDF file.
CAMBRIDGE July 17 -- The Business Cycle Dating Committee of the National Bureau of Economic Research met yesterday. At its meeting, the committee determined that a trough in business activity occurred in the U.S. economy in November 2001. The trough marks the end of the recession that began in March 2001 and the beginning of an expansion. The recession lasted 8 months, which is slightly less than average for recessions since World War II.

Obama: GOP holding recovery hostage | Video | Reuters.com
This is EVEN FUNNIER.
Isn't this what Democrats claimed about Reagan in 1982??????
That Reagan made a deal to keep the Iranian hostages in Iran until AFTER the election?????? They never found evidence for that. Liberals don't need evidence for their claims. They just lie and it's "true," because they want it to be true.
So now Republicans are holding "middle class tax cuts" hostage???
HOW CAN MIDDLE CLASS TAX CUTS EXIST OBAMA??????? You said the tax cuts were ONLY FOR THE RICH!!!!!!!

Just like Austin Goolsbee's admission yesterday that the Summer of Recovery was just a slogan. Everything these folks do is just a slogan meant to get your vote. And how can anyone trust anything they say. We've already been lied to so much that nobody trusts their asses.
The main reason the economy sucks is because of fear....fear of what these nimrods will do next year....fear of crazy legislation....fear of losing our freedoms....yes and fear of higher taxes.

"When I took office, our economy was beginning a recession," Bush said in a speech at a Mississippi high school. "Then our economy was hit by terrorists. Then our economy was hit by corporate scandals. But I'm certain of this: We won't let fear undermine our economy and we're not going to let fraud undermine it either."
