Housing bubble was caused by years of democrats insisting the poor (and in many cases ineligible for loans) be given loans. (See Community Reinvestment Act, which each president added too, resulting in banks being forced to make bad loans) Dems want to blame banks and savings and loans for making bad loans, but the government (since Carter) caused this. It happened to crash at the end of Bush years, but was not his fault anymore than the tighter loan climate was obamas. The banks had to for their own well being.
Economy in the tank so ANY uptick is claimed as obamas great economy. When you get knocked down, getting onto your knees is better than being flat, but still not where you started.
The unemployment numbers the dems keep waving around look good, until you consider what they were before the crash. 4.4% with many manufacturing and full time jobs that are now gone..... many quit looking for a job or took two part time jobs - so the current numbers aren't reflective of real story. I understand it is dicey - hoping not to upset a teacher and have her retaliate on your child, but if she responds rudely to your daughter it is worth a meeting with her in the principals office to make sure she assures you that her personal feelings will not reflect on your daughters grade or how she is treated in class. The teacher having to agree to that in front of her boss will keep her in line.
Basically no one wants to mention that after a year, you are not counted in the statistics anymore. So if you have 30% of America go unemployed, two years later they don't count and a President using this math can claim a great employment recovery with even 30% unemployment.
Must be common core!
