But you won’t get 47% of the country to acknowledge that.

Still “Bush’s fault”, even though he’s been out of office 5 years, and didn’t have congress for the last 2 years of his admin.

So, 7 years later, it’s still not the rats’ fault.

If you want to make a liberal mad just tell them this is the Age of Obama and the economy isn’t going to get any better. Works every time for me.

Consumer spending in the U.S. rose in January even as incomes dropped by the most in 20 years, showing households were weathering the payroll-tax increase by socking away less money in the bank.

Could be used as an argument that things got so good under Bush that there is still a little money left to spend despite the atrocities of the last 5 years........Of course it might also be a sign of despondency and demoralization as folks under Zero have just given up any hope of salvaging a future...
