That depends, do I think he`s an economic mastermind. Fuck no, do I believe the economic crisis had little to do with him, and has more to do with 1000 other issues fuck yes. I`m not advocating for Obama, but the facts are simple he faced the worst crisis in recent history, to be expecting it to be much different because of him is quite childish.
He made that crisis FAR WORSE. Even during Bush's worst years, we never had 10% unemployment. We've had that...TWICE, since Mr. Hope-and-Change became president.
Keep in mind, he stated that we had to pass his stupid stimulus, to keep unemployment under 8%. When that FAILED MISERABLY, the talking point from the left is now that "Oh, it would have been 15% if it weren't for the stimulus".
There's a reason why you have to put guns to the Dems' head to get them to run on this foolishness. And why ObamaCare, the holy grail of the left, has become their worst nightmare.
So, instead of talking turkey with the folks, the Dems are obsessed with alleged racism, witchcraft, masturbation, secret money for the GOP, and all other manner of foolishness.
