The economy Obama faces: Slow but gaining steadily

The economy President Obama will face over the next four years remains slow and at risk, but signs suggest that the next four years will coincide with a vastly healthier economy than the previous four, which overlapped the Great Recession.

Haha. This article is great. It doesn't point to one thing Obama did in the last four years to help the economy. Bush apparently is still being blamed for the economy- according to exit polls yesterday.
Like most libs, the writers think the economy will heal itself just by time passing(no matter what they do to stifle it) and within four more years Obama will be presiding over an economic boom.
History lesson: check the economy under FDRs second term.

So we get another stimulius to pay back his union voters? What a great leader. Going to be nothing left of this country when he is done, but thats what the people want.

In the unemployment rate that inched up to 7.9 percent, the government only counts people as unemployed if they are actively searching – which leaves a high percentage of unemployed not counted.
The large Democrat voter turnout was key to President Obama's re-election and Democrats holding onto the Senate, despite the fact of the highest unemployment rate of any incumbent since President Franklin Roosevelt. Obama will approach a more divided Congress during his second term. Another four years of America’s economic recovery problem, higher taxes, big government and government regulations, red tape barriers for small businesses, and the national $16 trillion debt.
