Digging Out From The George W. Bush/Republican Great Recession

"Finally! Job market returns to 2008 peak"

It's been an anemic recovery. Can't deny that.

Did you know that 88% of Americans are ignorant and have no clue what a 8.9% negative GDP is? You ask some stupid teabagger on the street if we were losing or creating 800,000 private-sector jobs and did Bush have a $1.2 trillion deficit or was that a surplus, the month he left office, and they'd answer, but what about Benghazi?

But we're digging out slowly. Things are moving generally in a positive way. And of course, as we all remember - and wingnuts still have nightmares and wet their beds over - the Big Dog spanked their asses on the facts of who's far more successful on creating jobs.
