Those of you who were predecting a double dip recession..


Since you thought we were heading in that direction and it did not happen, will you give President Obama credit for preventing it?
 
Everything is still so fluid right now. From a local perspective last week there was a Bay Area article talking about how well some tech firms are doing and how they are expanding and then there was an adjacent article that talked about a possible double dip in the housing market due to foreclosures etc.

We already know your rules. They go something like this: the economy under Bush was decent for 7 years, and he gets the credit for that. But it crashed in his last year, which wasn't his fault at all, and was all on Barney Frank.

So, if the economy is bad now, it's all Obama; but I'm sure if it turns at all, it will be the GOP Congress.

You mean it hasn't happened yet. Will you blame Obama if it does? :)
 
Those predicting it were already blaming Obama, so it seems only logical to me they should back track and give him credit for preventing it.

Ok, is there someone in particular you had in mind when writing this post?
 
Jarred please stick to legal issues. Unless you like getting you ass pounded by republicans who actual don't think companies are evil.

No, no...we can't blame Obama or Barney Fag for anything....ever.......this shitty economy today is probably ......
......Nixon's fault....or Reagan's,... or maybe Gingrich....or dare I say, GW Bush.....
All bad economys of the future will be deemed the fault of GW Bush.....or for convenience, lets just say Republicans.....
Two years, four years...even 12 or 24 or 100 years will not be long enough to undo the economic mistakes of GW Bush.....

Its all Bush's fault that banks lent money to clowns without jobs that couldn't pay their mortgages, ...hes nothing more than a bleeding heart socialist...and...and...and....and.......

You simply repeating your argument instead of addressing my point and question. Again:

"You mean [the second dip] hasn't happened yet. Will you blame Obama if it does? "
 
What a bunch of ass clowns. Our economy is about to produce more in a year than it ever has. Unemployment for college educated is and has been under 5 percent.
 
Doesn't the chairman of the federal reserve deserve the credit for every economic success and failure?

Soon enough.

It'll be worse than a bouble dip.

Remember that when it happens, Ron Paul told you about it decades ago.

And still is.:awesome:

We are growing big time, but we are overpaying for it. You'll just have to wait a couple more years for that shitty socialist payout on your SS.

Ill answer your question, even though you did not answer mine, and I asked mine first....!


No, I will not blame President Obama, just like I dont give him credit for the improving economy. Sure he may have had some small effect on it thus far, but not much... It took almost 7 years of Bush poison for his poor economic policies to hit the economy, Id say it would take at least that for President Obama's policies to improve it.
 
good thing you went to law school, you'd starve on your economics knowledge. Over paying trillions to buy a way less than average recovery is nothing to boast about.
 
What does it matter who will & won't blame him, or give him credit?

Partisans will do what partisans do. Ultimately, if there is a double-dip, Obama will lose re-election - guaranteed. If there isn't, or if the economy is humming come 2012, he'll probably win.

The economy is on the President, deserved or not....
