President Obama told us today that he saved our economy from catastrophe. As if we’ve never been through a recession before. My, oh my, how did we ever survive before The One came along?
And to Obama, an unemployment rate of 9.4% and an additional 250,000 Americans losing their jobs is good news.
“This morning, we received additional signs that the worst may be behind us,” Obama said.
“We are losing jobs at less than half the rate we were when I took office. We have pulled the financial system back from the brink.
“While we have rescued our economy from catastrophe, we have also begun to build a new foundation for growth,” Obama said, but he also warned that tough times lay ahead before the economy would be restored to full prosperity.
At least he was honest when he warned of tough times ahead. Even if the unemployment numbers weren’t skewed downward, sending his thugs out in an effort to forcibly shut down any dissent is sure to cause tough times for many Americans.
