Boy, it's been rough

Barack Obama was sworn in three years ago yesterday, January 20, 2009.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average on January 20, 2009 was 7,949.  Yesterday it closed at 12,720.  That's a 60% increase.

In January 2009 the economy lost 780,000 jobs, and well over 2 million in Bush's last three months.  Not sure what this month's job gains will be but last month  there were 200,000.  Democrats hope they increase and of course Republicans are praying for another recession.

The CBO projected this month that our deficit this year will be down to $973 billion.  And of course, in January 2009 the CBO told us Bush's 2009 deficit would be $1.2 trillion.  (note to teabaggers, $973 billion is less than $1.2 trillion)

We're out of Bush's criminal Iraq disaster, Osama bin Laden is dead, Michigan has the lowest unemployment since Bush was in office... GDP is growing when it retracted 9% in Bush's last quarter... yeah, it's been rough. 

Let's vote for another fucking Republican loser like one of those four idiots left standing so they can implement more of those failed Republican policies and we can get back to being really miserable.

Bring it on, assholes!  Bring it on...
