Shadow statistics is a great site. I think the manipulation of the GDP figures by understating inflation began with Johnson.

Yes it is. Back to Johnson wouldn't surprise me at all.

Yeah Obama prints so much money that soon a gallon of milk will cost a million dollars and so then they’ll call this consumer spending growth(GDP) and say that we are growing so much and that we are all millionaires. Yeah when an apartment costs a billion $ to rent , bread costs a milion $ .so inflation is called growth. Amazing these liars get away with it.

” - - - began with Johnson.”

Johnson, Johnson - - - ? Do you mean “Great Society” Johnson?

THAT Johnson? The LB Johnson and renowned “Credibility Gap” Johnson?

The Johnson who sold America down the river with his creation of Medi”care?”

The Johnson who declared a “War On Poverty?”

BTW, I heard on Fox yesterday that after 15 TRILLION dollars have been spent on LBJ’s “War on Poverty” there are more people in poverty in the USA than before the War on Poverty began.

Yeah, I remember that Johnson - - - .

I see they wait until the final paragraph to mention that the 2009 GDP contraction (or what the libs call the near-economic collapse) wasn't as bad as initially reported.

I guess that means maybe Obama didn't really bring the U.S. economy from the brink after all! /s

Some of the commercials are beating the snot out of the Communist thug.

It Worked and You didn’t build that.

Hopefully Romney has not peaked. I want 57 states.

Why stop at 57? :)

Will continuing to follow the “We’re moving in the right direction” Obamaidiot-Cloward and Piven-failboat road lead to an America that lives in economic destructive hell? I see the real answer more and more each day, each, week, each month.....=.=
