Time for a history lesson, WC.

Question 1: Which US president lobbied for an $800 billion stimulus bill and warned that unless Congress passed the bill, the unemployment rate would soar above 8 percent?

Question 2: What is the current official unemployment rate in the United States?

More than three years after taking office, the official unemployment rate is still much higher than it was when Obama took office - and IMO, there is good reason to suspect that the official rate is worse than advertised.

Is this what you call a successful record? How high would the unemployment rate need to be entering his fourth year in office for you to consider Obama's economic track record to be a flop?

What was the unemployment rate when bush left office and how fast was it dropping. Come on it was 7.2 in December which u will claim is bushes unemployment number while it raised to almost 7.8 before Obama was in office. But you guys give him those 700k job losses even tho he wasn't inaugurated until January the 20th. The ship was sinking because of bush and bad decisions by both sides. Obama could not do anything to stop that. And now that the unemployment rate is turning around you refuse to accept its doing any good.
