They’re scheduling the release of “stimulus” funds right before the next two elections to give the appearance of a recovery.

Slick Willy and his posse bear 100% of the blame for 9/11.

This recession isn’t over by a long shot. As much as I hate to say it, we need for things to stay the same if we have any chance of cleaning house in 2010. If we have an artificial recovery just in time for the election next year nothing will change and we’re duly and truly screwed.

Bill, I absolutely blame Bill Clinton on the 9/11 attacks.

I am totally tired of this crap. Is there a good conservative lawyer out there that can bring a malpractice case against these media creeps. Something has to give here and I don’t mean the kind of “reaching across aisle” that Lindsay Grahmnisty wants.

If the recession is really over then why does the value of the dollar continue to plummet? Or international economists talk of replacing it as a currency?

See the minus 1% in the second quarter of 2009?

That represents about 1 million people who lost their jobs in April, May and June.

I wonder if they think the Recession is over.

Or the other 29 million people without jobs.

Know them by their own chart … A recession is defined by two consecutive down quarters, which the chart represents accurately as having started in Q3 2008, not the oft repeated lie of 2007 … Blame Bush.

And the end is two consecutive up quarters … which hasn’t even been one yet.

Always wait for the revisions, they are always worse that the initial estimates.

So if Obama can blame Bush for the 2009 economy after being in office for 9 months, can we now blame Clinton for the 9/11 attacks?
