GDP was -2.77% in Bush's last quarter as president, Q4 2008, and that's not even counting the very bad Jan 2009.
Carter never had a quarter that bad his entire presidency.
The GDP became -2.77% when the Democrat elected Congress took over after the 2006 midterm elections. Obama has done nothing to significantly improve the economy after becoming President. For instance, his stimulus package was a tremendous failure.
All the sonofabitch had to do was lower taxes, cut back on the regulatory framework and encourage private investment then we would have had a booming recovery. Instead he played golf, raised money for the filthy Democrat Party and raided the Treasury and gave the money to the despicable special interest groups that elected him like the welfare queens and unions.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what Obama did wrong.
Blaming Obama's failures on Booosh is nothing more a pathetic form of denial. The shithead has been President for seven years now and he had a Democrat control Senate for all but one year and his Party controlled Congress for two years before he became President and two years after. It is his failure.
Those idiots that voted for him need to take responsibility for making a very bad decision. They should have known better.
