Well, I think a tweet like that would appear out of touch, given that the overwhelming sentiment in the country is that this is and it in fact is the weakest recovery since the Second World War. The highest chronic unemployment. This is basically a jobless recovery. With million of Americans leaving, aren't even looking to get a job because they are so discouraged and the recovery is so weak.

You know, it isn't as if the only alternative was the monstrous stimulus vs. nothing. You could have had tax cuts and deregulation. Instead it was a gift to all kinds of Democratic constituencies and as a result, all this money is spent. F.D.R. at least left behind a Hoover Dam. Ike left behind the Interstate Highway System. This thing, as predicted, hasn't left a trace in the sand except, you know, the ruins of the Solyndra plant. ;D ;D

"It's as if this guy discovers everything late. As if he wandered into the White House on a White House tour and discovered himself in the Oval Office as president."
