You're ****ing joking right? Bush gets a bye for posting poor returns for a recession and Obama doesn't? What a hack! This is great. I am loving this.

Bush lost the elecction in 2008 but your obsession with him says a lot about you and your attempt to divert from the Obama record. So I will keep providing it to you. Thanks again for proving the GDP numbers right and I am sure you will find the others right as well and believe you have.

Obama economic results in 2011,
.4% GDP and 1.3% GDP growth in 2011(bea.gov)
25+ million unemployed or under employed Americans in 2011(bls.gov)
2.6 million fewer jobs(bls.gov)
4.2 trillion added to the debt in less than 3 years(U.S. Treasury Site)
Downgrade of the U.S. credit rating(S&P)
Rising Misery index 7.83 to 12.97 (The United States Misery Index By Year)
38-41% JAR and well over 50-55% disapproval ratings(Gallup)

He was up for election in 2008? Looks like you owe me another apology for being wrong.

You don't think that millions of people didn't vote against McCain because of Bush? You really are naive and always looking for what you believe is a gotcha moment. Everyone knows that Bush wasn't on the ballot but enough people voted against McCain because of Bush.

Holy ****, man. No, the negative number was in 2001 Q3 - which is April - June of 2001 (before the Sept 11 attacks). He gets a bye on that, according to you, and I give it to him as well. Of course, Obama doesn't get a bye from you, but that's because we all know you don't actually care about the numbers. The numbers I posted were in response to your latest 2011 Q1 and Q2 numbers for Obama:

2002 Q2 - 2.1%
2002 Q3 - 2.0%
2002 Q4 - 0.1%
2003 Q1 - 1.7%

vs

2011 Q1 - 0.4%
2011 Q2 - 1.3%

Why are you mad at one and not the other? They are nearly identical.

For future reference, specify said accusations. Say: "As a result of Bush being a fairly incompetent president, many people decided to vote Democrat instead of Republican."

you don't think that diverting to the Bush record and distorting it isn't trolling? All you want to do, and I don't blame you, is divert from the disaster in the WH and the fact that you voted for him. Trying to justify your vote based upon what Bush did isn't working.

Look, kid, your buddy here confirmed my GDP numbers and BLS shows a 2.6 million NET JOB loss thus no net private sector job gain therefore the charts are distorted and really out of context. do you understand what NET means? I will not disagree that jobs were created in the private sector, just not enough to create a net job gain because of the jobs lost in the private sector. You don't seem to understand that net means after deductions or jobs lost.

It isn't relevant if you believe that makes Bush a bad president as well, but you won't do that even with it staring you in the face. You have to admit, it was pretty nice when it came full circle and Bush had the same numbers as Obama right in a row. But hey, just keep hitting ctrl + v with those useless statistics you keep touting, and those of us with the ability to read those numbers will keep not giving a damn.

History will judge Bush a lot differently than you.Why is it so important to you that I claim Bush was a bad President? What relevance does it have with the Obama record today? Bush never once had the overwhelming Congressional numbers that Obama had and in fact had a Democrat Congress in 2007-2008 that it seems was more interested in regaining the WH than doing their job for the American people.

Apparently those useless statistics are resonating with the public today thus the JAR of Obama. Guess those 25 million unemployed/under employed Americans aren't excited about the Obama economy.

You can demonize Bush all you want for not doing a good job while President, but that does not change the fact that Obama has only made it worse. Obama is so in over his head, so inept, and had all his initiatives be such colossal failures .............. the only question is when do liberals finally realize he was a mistake ? A giant mistake.

Definition of a Political Hack
A political hack is a negative term ascribed to a person who is part of the political party apparatus, but whose intentions are more aligned with victory than personal conviction. The term "hired gun" is often used in tandem to further describe the moral bankruptcy of the "hack".
Political hack may also be used by a political opponent in order to erode confidence or credentials of an opponent or his hired campaign help. Often used to demean well credentialed individuals for political purposes.

If you use one number to make one president look bad, but then defend another president who posted the same number who happens to be of the same party as you, then you might be a political hack (Jeff Foxworthy joke - heyooo).
