Sure... but he's saved more jobs than any President in the history of America.

Well that's what him and Joe said, can't prove it reliably, but .. well.. ah .. never mind..

Fucking Bush..

Just shows the impact of the worst recession in 70 years that the REPUBLICANS gave us,

Thankfully, we elected a president who took decisive steps and reveresed a potentially crippling economic collapse

Thankfully, "We the people" recognized the damage that was done to our country by the Republicans and we voted them into political exile. We elected President Obama to reverse the damage done by the Republicans and put the economy back on a good footing. It hasn't been easy, but all leading economic indicators are showing marked improvement since President Obama became President

Now I know you will take the opportunity to blast this post and claim that Obama has destroyed the economy. I will then take the opportunity to post every positive economic report on this thread

WASHINGTON - The number of newly laid-off workers filing claims for unemployment benefits dropped unexpectedly last week, a sign the job market is healing as the economy slowly recovers.
New jobless claims have dropped steadily since September, raising hopes that the economy may soon begin creating jobs and the unemployment rate could decline. That, in turn, would give households more money to spend and add fuel to the broader economic rebound that began earlier this year.

The Labor Department said Thursday that new claims for unemployment insurance fell by 22,000 to a seasonally adjusted 432,000, the lowest since July 2008. That's much better than the rise to 460,000 that Wall Street economists expected.


The four-week average, which smooths fluctuations, fell for the 17th straight week to 460,250, the lowest since September 2008, when the financial crisis intensified. The crisis led to widespread mass layoffs, which sent jobless claims to as high as 674,000 last spring.

NEW YORK — Few analysts forecast this year's remarkable stock market rebound as major indexes were plunging to 12-year lows last March. Now, with most experts predicting the pace of stocks' gains will slow in 2010, there's reason to believe they will be proven correct.
Despite fears early in the year about a potential financial system collapse, stocks managed to have their best year since 2003 on growing signs of recovery in what turned out to be Wall Street's biggest comeback since the Great Depression.

Stocks began the dramatic turnaround in March after Citigroup and other big banks said they were making money again, and then climbed at a fairly steady pace as signs of an economic recovery from the Great Recession became more pronounced.

Once it was clear a collapse wasn't going to happen, the Standard & Poor's 500 index roared back 64.8% from its early March low. For the full year, the index rose 23.5%, or 211.85 points, it's best showing since 2003.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 1,651.66, or 18.8% for the year. From its March 9 close, the Dow jumped 59.3%. Powered by the recovery in high-tech stocks, the Nasdaq ended 2009 with a gain of 696.12, or 43.9%. Tthe Nasdaq has surged 78.9% from its March low.

WASHINGTON - New orders for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods excluding transportation items surged in November and new applications for jobless aid hit the lowest level in 15 months last week, pointing to a firmly entrenched economic recovery.

The Commerce Department said on Thursday that durable goods orders excluding transportation rose 2% last month, more than reversing October's 0.7% drop and beating market expectations for a 1% rise.

However, a plunge in orders for civilian aircraft tempered overall orders, which rose only 0.2%, below expectations for a 0.5% increase.

A separate report from the Labor Department showed initial claims for state unemployment benefits fell 28,000 to 452,000 last week. That was the lowest level since early September 2008. Economists had expected a drop of only 10,000.

"Both of these series point to ongoing healing in the economy," said Robert Dye, senior economist at PNC Financial Services in Pittsburgh. He said the figures suggested economic growth in the fourth quarter would be stronger than had been expected "with a moderate recovery through 2010."

House prices ended 2009 5.9 per cent higher than a year earlier, according to the Nationwide index released on Thursday, in a sign of the surprising strength of the housing market.

Prices were up by 0.4 per cent in December, having risen in all but one month since March. However, the pace of increase has moderated slightly, with prices up by 2.1 per cent in the final quarter of this year, compared to a 3.8 per cent rise in the third quarter.


The persistent rise in prices this year has surprised most commentators, who widely expected 2009 to be a year of further falls in house prices.

If politicians are to blame for this, the blame rests on George W. Bush and years of Republican power.

For most of the past 70 years, the U.S. economy has grown at a steady clip, generating perpetually higher incomes and wealth for American households. But since 2000, the story is starkly different.



The past decade was the worst for the U.S. economy in modern times, a sharp reversal from a long period of prosperity that is leading economists and policymakers to fundamentally rethink the underpinnings of the nation's growth.



It was, according to a wide range of data, a lost decade for American workers. The decade began in a moment of triumphalism -- there was a current of thought among economists in 1999 that recessions were a thing of the past. By the end, there were two, bookends to a debt-driven expansion that was neither robust nor sustainable.



There has been zero net job creation since December 1999. No previous decade going back to the 1940s had job growth of less than 20 percent. Economic output rose at its slowest rate of any decade since the 1930s as well.

Did you really expect anything else?

We gave the decade of 2000-2010 to the Republicans. They convinced us that only they had the answer to economic prosperity. Lower taxes, less regulation, less worker protections, reduced environmental limits

The result?

Lost jobs
Lower GDP
Negative growth
Massive recession
Housing market crash

I'd prefer he was the Unemployed ex-President.

 

[Truthmatters]

I seem to recall a whole lot of Rs arguing that Bush inherited a recession from Clinton.

It seems economic downturns can never be blamed on Republicans in tehir minds.

Lets take a look at who was president in the lead up to the crash in 1929.

It was Cooledge, he was a unfettered market guy.

Then in the lead up to this mess its was Bush , he was an unfettered market guy.

You guys crashed the world economy twice now in one lifetime.

Your Ideas are failed ones just like this thread is.

 

[rightwinger]

Well, as a citizen of the US you are welcome to vote against him just like "We the People" voted out the Republicans

Good Luck
