It will take time to recover from 0bama and Pelosi.
I have several people convinced to pull the Republican tripper this election. They understand the need for checks and balances, and accountability. Some are democrats that said they would hold their nose and do it.
Just imagine, if the whole country did that.... wow, a veto proof congress!

There is no Obama Recession. The Bush Recession started in December, 2007 and ended when we had three straight quarters of positive GDP growth under Obama. Perhaps a course in basic economics would help you out.

Do the full country a want and take a be certain out and earnings some democrat help for the contest of this. i did not vote for him, yet i'm not stupid sufficient to think of of that this rubbish is his fault. it incredibly is the democrat social gathering it incredibly is making an attempt to get this rubbish to pass. If it passes the senate I pray that Obama has the experience to tug out the ole veto pen. There are subjects we would desire to repeatedly be focused on. despite if it incredibly is a stimulus bill then it would desire to nicely be approximately stimulus in actuality. Kill the beef and that they might attempt to pass that crap via utilising itself. they're in actuality attempting to pass all those subjects cut back than the guise of financial stimulus, on the same time as maximum of it rather is not.

You mean the recession that started as soon as voters voted in a Liberal congress and the recession that got worse when it was perceived beyond a doubt that Obama would win the election? No, it is too late. But the Republican congress will make a marvelous scapegoat.

Nice try in rewriting history, but this recession has been coming for about 10 years. Sustained growth is just not a realistic expectation in a capitalist economy.
The Repubes are just as much to blame as the Demos are and they are not going to be able to fix it either.
We need long term solutions but our political system only allows for them in the short term anymore. I blame the average Americans attention span.

Of course, the so-called "Obama recession" is really the Bush recession. I think it will get worse if the Republicans win in the Nov elections. After all, they are the ones who got us into this mess in the first place. Why would it get any better?

There will be a slight boost simply from consumer and business confidence.
However reversing some of these polices can't be done with Mr. Veto in office.
And he called Republicans the party of NO just wait until he is called Mr Veto.
Getting out of our economic problems is going to take some true libertarian economics. We are going to have to DUMP Keynesian economics, and go back to Austrian economics.
This will take time, and also must coordinate with lowering our costs to make our products viable again.
In other words we are going to HAVE to BE REALISTIC.
A man got on the news today and announced that he and 200 others are loosing their GE jobs making light bulbs. The story line was that the eco friendly bulbs would be made in Mexico, in spite of the fact that Obama said we would prosper from going green etc...
Well, the man said that GE's cost per employee in the US is 90,000 per year and in Mexico it is 8,000.
On the one hand we can see that our eco friendly laws are going to cause the need to revamp our industries, however we simultaneously have priced ourselves OUT of the global economy. We must fix that problem on both ends with sane solutions, that are livable, or we shall not be the economy that we once were. It was the industrial revolution that made us, not oil, not wheat, or corn. We are going to need people who are for the US in office, and not for filling their own pockets.

No because the recession really has nothing to do with who is in office, it is a function of the market. Obama's policies have not helped to get us out but he didn't cause it (neither did Bush).

No, as long as Obama holds the veto pen the Republicans will not be able to do anything.
They can only block the Democrats from driving us even deeper than they already have.

it took Bush a year after Clintons recession, it took Reagan about 2 years after Carters recession but the democrat congress delayed Reagans tax cuts, it took Coolidge 1 year after Wilsons depression, so maybe just one year but not right away
