Bigreb - I guess someone believes this crap!! See he just posted it.
In what way are we worse then when Obama took office? Use hard figures. Remember, we're talking about the recession.
This is when you don't respond and I prove another one of you loud mouth idiots, is indeed a loud mouth idiot.
I keep seeing progressives use that argument, RDD and it's rather ridiculous. When Barack Obama took office we were at the worst part of a rather severe economic downturn. Have things improved statistically since then? Well, of course. Recessions are always cyclical. The question isn't whether things are better but rather whether it is getting better as fast as it should and how much of that is due to THIS President's policies. We've been out of a recession for some time now but that does not by any stretch of the imagination mean that things are proceeding as they should. What that does mean is that we've had so many quarters of ANY economic growth and even glacially slow economic growth (which is what we've been experiencing) counts...hardly something to crow about.
The fact is...this economic downturn continues to grind along with no end in sight. We've had a huge number of people on long term unemployment and that isn't changing. At some point, the Obama Administration has to take responsibility for that. They don't have a plan in place to address the economy, RDD and that's almost criminal. I've asked this many time before and I'll ask it of you once again...why would someone re-elect a man to a second four year term who apparently ran out of ideas to fix the economy about two years into his first?
Great question. Because I honestly don't see any better ideas coming from Romney. If his solution is to further cut taxes for big business and the wealthy while increasing taxes on the poor or middle class than I'd rather stick with the guy who I at least can agree with on Social issues, since neither he nor Romney seem to be much different otherwise.
