Yes, Bush did do it with negligence in fiscal regulation, which dominoed Europe’s collapse after the sub-prime implosion. Bush further did it by leaving a trillion dollar deficit, mainly caused by a war on two fronts, one of which was a non-agressor. The smart money is going to stay in Asia for quite a while until the world can trust the USA with its investments
“Government can NOT create jobs” is the Republican mantra. Well, except that Obama, by himself, with the opposition of all Republican members of the Congress IS SUPPOSED TO CREATEALLJOBS! Where HAS the “private sector” job growth been hanging out as jobs went overseas, or disappeared? Oh, right, cashing in on the tax breaks from Reaganomics and “W”!
That pole is the filibuster rule in the senate that’s kept us from climbing out of this mess, used by the Reeps to stop Obama at any cost. Has there ever been a more disloyal party in American history? at least give his ideas a chance to work. After all he WAS elected by the people.
Henry, you are aware that the GOP did everything in their power to rnsure the economy would stall — do nothing Congress. At least 50% the republicans fault.
Called "the Thomas Nast of his time" by The National Review magazine, Payne is an informed journalist whose investigative writing has also made national headlines.

If we can start pumping oil and natural gas I disagree. We spend more on oil to the middle east then we do on defense.
Plus as some who has been to the middle east I know we can pump and move all that oil cleaner.

- 27 straight months of economic growth – + 4 million jobs created – Unemployment down to 8.2%
Looks like a wrong analogy was used in this toon.

Blah blah blah. Obama can’t fix everything. Yet NO ONE has any useful suggestions to offer on how this might be done.
The only thing we hear from conservatives is “why can’t Obama take care of me.”

Bad numbers. Go back and re read. Not even a good attempt at fudging them.
