Obama worked hard eight years to save us from the Bush Recession

Oh, I misunderstood you. But then, you do see how the economy was in a nosedive during the Bush administration, and how it recovered so strongly during Obama's administration?

I'm not sure where the rumor started that it was a slow recovery. Bush's recession was really an economic depression, and we don't have any similar modern-day depressions to compare it to. What depression have you seen that had a faster and stronger recovery?

The economy was already in recovery before the first Obama stimulus check was written. Then we had the slowest recovery ever. So exactly what did Obama work so hard doing?

In what way was the economy in recovery before Obama?

In Bush's last 2 years, unemployment went from 4.4% to 10%:

Foreclosures went up a record 81% from 2007 to 2008; up 225% from 2006:

The Dow Jones had decreased steadily, starting in 2007:

I just can't understand, what numbers are you looking at that show that the economy was recovering at all before Obama took over?

Many will attend the inauguration hoping for a glimpse of President Obama and Michelle.


You're exactly right, valleydoll. Were going from the classiest to the trashiest.

Talking to you all is like talking to a bunch of jack***es. You see nothing, you hear nothing, you supposed to speak nothing, but you can't shut up. But elephant see everything, hear everything, and remember everything. Hence the republican's character is the elephant. You all's character is the jack***. You can lead a jack*** to water but you can't make it drink. Remember is it a known fact that Obama is a muslin. What the hay I thought we were a Christian Nation. One Nation under God. The muslin's would kill us christian' s off as infidels.

Presidents have been inviting winning teams to the White House for many years.

http://abcnews.go.com/Sport...d=37305752

The tradition of sports teams visiting the White House dates to at least Aug. 30, 1865, when President Andrew Johnson welcomed the Brooklyn Atlantics and Washington Nationals amateur baseball clubs. Ulysses S. Grant played host to the first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings, in 1869. The first World Series championship team feted at the White House is believed to be the 1924 Washington Senators, who visited Calvin Coolidge at the executive residence the following year.
