GDP recovery since the Bush/GOP Recession.

GDP was higher last quarter than initially believed.

Lest we forget where the GOP took the economy the last time they had it (versus where Obama has taken us since), please keep this graph in mind.

Hey, I’m disappointed with Obama’s conservatism too, but do we really want to give the economy back to the GOP?  They have a terrible history of killing the economy, as we saw in the early and mid-70s and in the early 80s and in the early 90s and in the 00s.  The Democrats are simply better at managing the economy than the Cons are.  Obama has swung us out of a nosedive and the Cons are tricking some people into thinking we would have been in the clear if we had just given more tax cuts to the mega-rich.

GDP since 2001.

This is what Obama did with the mess he inherited from the GOP.
