Aside from trying to sound like he’s channeling Reagan, he’s right—but one primary reason we’re worse off has a lot to do with his policies and regulations. He should stop “fundamentally transforming” America into a union and politically connected crony economy.

He just didn’t have time to say, “But it’s George
Bush’s fault!”

I suppoze now that Obama will be the next star to be yankded off the air for his anti-POTUS rants.

I think they have already despaired of winning any 2-way matchup in 2012.

The big push will be to nominate Mitt via crossover voting and have a Tea Party candidate to split the opposition.

“A rare moment of candor.”

Not really; President TRAINWRECK is just getting out front of this criticism so he can respond to such charges by saying “I’ve already acknowledged that.” It’s an old politcal strategy.

This is the second time in the last two weeks that Obama has openly admitted that we are in a recession. All those ‘recovery’ lies have finally gone by the wayside.
