Joe Biden: It's Still the 'Bush Recession'

No, Joe it is Abe Lincoln's recession. Democrats are nortorious for playing the blame game.

My car warranty hasn't lasted as long as this excuse for the poor economy. Seems to me that we had a Democratic Congress starting in 2006. So, that my friends is 4 years. So, I would say time to accept part of the blame and give Bush a break!!!! Both sides benefitted during the run up to the brink. People were buying homes they couldn't afford, people were taking vacations on borrowed money and people in most cases weren't preparing for the down times. So, Bush is in Texas and the problem solving should be done in Washington..Don't deflect the issue...Not becoming!!!!

Last weeks weekly unemployment numbers were up 37,000. The existing homes sales were DOWN 5.1%. The CBO gave ominous debt warning this week. The feds "beige book" report said economic growth has stalled in HALF of the countries regions. The Feds also reported durable goods orders fell during June.........all this while Obama reiterates the jounoList narrative on the View of how rosy the economy is and how many jobs they saved...........a stat that can not be quantified. What CAN be quantified is the TRUE unemployment rate, including those unemployed for so long they have fallen off the governments statistical radar, is near 20%.

When President Obama and Vice President Biden took office we were on the verge of another Great Depression. We were losing 750,000 jobs a month and many companies and individuals were going bankrupt. This administration's steady and calm leadership are helping to move us forward. We are now adding jobs each month and the economy is improving.

It has always been the democrat recesson, they started it with giving home loans to those who could never pay for them and it snow balled and it is still growing today.

Joe biden needs to do the math, 4.5 million jobs have been lost since obama and he took office.

one Trillion in terms you can understand.....if you were a businessman when Jesus was born, and you lost One Million Dollars every day, every month, every year since, it would be October 2737 untill you reached One Trillion......No mater who you prefer to blame, this was purposely done,and is STILL being done to destroy this country.

If the Republicans are the "party of no"; then the democrats have to be the "party of blame".

Biden's got a point, sort of. We associate the great depression with Hoover even though Roosevelt's continuation and extension of Hoover's policies deepened and prolonged it. Same here. The current recession started under Bush, and Obama made it much, much worse by grossly overspending in a dismal economy. Where Biden abandons any claim to credibility is when he insists that the government is "on the right track." Someone needs to tell him the administration's "track" leads over the precipice!

What happened to the "summer of recovery"? So where are all of those 3.5 million stimulus jobs?
