Are you certain about the GDP for 2009? I’m not denying it; I’m just curious as to where you got it (and the whole list for that matter).
Thanks.
I’ll have to google again. It was something like WSJ or IBT. Remember that it was revised a few times so that may be either post or pre-revision which may be why you think it is different.
This article explains the difference a bit. It was revised down to -3.5%.

IE, worse than what the other source had.
