It is clear the campaign theme of Obama will be "It's Bush's fault and his failed policies"

Well lest take a look

Bush had 5% unemployment and Obama now has 9.1% unemployment

The last deficit under Bush was $500 billion - under Obama it is now $1.5 trillion

Undr Bush most homeowners were above water with their mortgage - under Obama most are under water

Since the Obama stimulus 2 million jobs have been lost

Inflation is coming back

The Dow is tanking

The dollar is losing more value

Gas prices have doubled since Obama has taken office

Yet we are told the economy is recovering

My question to you is which was better?

Bush's Recession or Obama's Recovery

While I doubt our resident liberals will not post let alone vote - what do you think?

A simpler way to put it would be "Are you better off now than you were two years ago?"

Inflation is now at its highest level in three years, and the manufacturing index went negative based on economic data released yesterday

Can you hear the disco music in the background?

Seems like we are back in the 1970's when Jimmy Carter was President
