The economy is doing great, but if it isn’t, then it is Bush’s fault.
How bout THAT? And Bill’s BROKE!
I hear the economy in DC is booming.
Everywhere else, not so much.
They both are known liars
Which liar to believe?
A look back . . .
During the election cycle of 1992, George H.W. Bush lost his job after Bill Clinton hammered him relentlessly for having caused the “worst economy of the last 50 years.”
In fact, as CNN’s Brooke Jackson has reported: “Three days before Christmas 1992, the National Bureau of Economic Research finally issued its official proclamation that the recession had ended 21 months earlier. What became the longest boom in U.S. history actually began nearly two years before Clinton took office.” See (See http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/10/31/jackson.recession.primer.otsc/).
By the same token, Clinton is generally perceived as having a stellar economic record during his own presidency, in spite of the fact that the economy was already starting to decline during the last year of his term after the stock market crashed in March 2000.
According to a report by MSNBC: “The longest economic expansion in U.S. history faltered so much in the summer of 2000 that business output actually contracted for one quarter, the government said Wednesday in releasing a comprehensive revision of the gross domestic product. Based on new data, the Commerce Department said that the GDP — the country’s total output of goods and services — shrank by 0.5 percent at an annual rate in the July-September quarter of 2000.” See: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3676690/ns/business-stocks_and_economy/t/gdp-figures-revised-downward/.
Democrats aren’t confused but they do get caught mixing their lies sometimes. They are just plain liars. They are no longer democrats but progressive driven.
The content of the speech is dependent on which group of ignoramuses is being addressed, I suppose.
Is it possible they are both lying
I imagine Obama actually believes it. Whatever Jarrett tells him is what he knows and what he believes. Pinocchio eventually turned into real boy. I don’t think Obama will ever make it.
When all you see of the economy is $35,00/plate fundraisers, swanky restaurants, airports and private golf clubs it tends to taint one’s view.
Several listed are plain crooks.
BOOM: 400 richest Americans now worth $2.3 TRILLION!

Apparently what this means is that Obama actually DOES excel at something and that is lying.
