Hmmm. Who led Congress when the economy went to hell? Who owned Congress when things started to get better?
Don't you believe that a President is entirely responsible for either.
The president regulates the banks, wall street, the agencies that were supposed to make sure that they didn't do EXACTLY what they did.
Every recession that happens has happened when the GOP gets exactly what it wants... lax regulation on the financial industry.
