there are large scale revisions done all the time so it’s not just this administration. Here is a list of them back to 1997:

Thank you, that’s good objective feedback and I respect that. Facts and accuracy are always good to get into the conversation.
Having said that, this administration has cleary been bending and distorting facts for political ends. It’s not just economics; there are numerous scandals and constant dissembling that have characterized this administration from day one. Just yesterday Art Laffer was actually laughing out loud at some of the new and obviously absurd ways of calculating the GDP that were introduced. So while other administrations have allowed revisions to economic calculations, I doubt that they were so conveniently blatent as the ones Obama has been fostering.
