OK, I stand corrected. Bush's DEMOCRAT controlled congress was the "catalyst that started the decline" and Obama's democrat controlled congress failed to correct it. Satisfied now that I was a bit more accurate? Because there is ample evidence to support it. And proof that it is not "corrected" as you say is that we have a record low GDP growth. But, who's stickler for details. We should all do like they did at the DNC and raise our hands and shout Hallelujah we're saved, and everything is doing great. And it isn't. The blind have been given that fruity drink and they are drinking it. No one believes that the economy is fixed, other than the ignorant guppies that are hooked by the corrupt leaders.
