Too bad we don't have enough data for that comparison either. But we are at the highest poverty level since stats have been kept. Another Obama milestone

The housing bubble burst before Obama took office. The fall of the housing market created a chain effect in the economy so...keep on the finger pointing. Dont mind me.

Well, at least he tried...that says a lot more than what you and I could ever do. Did you try to come up with a plan to help America's economy?

It is subjective, and you are saying a lot.

But overall numbers seem to indicate that you are one of the exceptions to the rule. I haven't faired poorly either. But it's not all about me, it's about our nation as a whole. At least IMO.

Not enough data for that comparison? What would lead you to believe that?

Of course, Obama is responsible for it all. Never mind the fact that poverty occurs and filters out over a period involving decades.

Gas prices escalated and flucuated long before Obama took office.

If your plan is so ingenious and capable of fixing everything pertaining to the economic climate of America, why aren't you running for President? Or at least having your solution published so that others can take advantage of this amazing plan you have come up with/

Only those that hold onto the fantasy of immediate gratification and instant fixes believe that is what he said. Others understand that we did not get into this postion over night, and nothing is going to fix it overnight. Policy has to be changed and in effect long enough that it has a direct impact.

I remember when they shot up to the $3 to $4 range back in 2004-05 and Obama wasn't even in office then so what about them and Obama?

Yeppers....and then they shot back down under Bush as well. And I'm not even a Bush fan.

And they fluctuated widely under Bush's Presidency. As they continue to do.

Well, because I love to play golf and I realize it is impossible to run the country when you are playing golf.

Bu bu but......Did you miss the interview I posted? He said things would be better by now. Those were his words.... Maybe that was just Obama's fantasy and wishful thinking in hopes to get immediate gratification from polls and media.

I for one never bought into the turtle bridge fantasy.

Subtle. Did you say the same thing when Bush was in office?

I like TXGolfer except when he is being dishonest. He says he hopes Obama get re-relected but we know the truth to that.

No, I didn't miss the interview you posted. If he hadn't met with such partisan and childish stonewalling at every turn things would, in all probability, be better by now. And even with the conservative push to prevent it, this country has made progress under his Presidency.
You seem to think that Obama is omnipotent. You silly boy!

Bush stopped playing golf after the war started.

He couldn't find any cronies willing to play with him after the war started.

Obama, on the other hand, hasn't been responsible for the start of an unjustified war. No need for him to stop playing if you apply your standards.

I have predicted Obama will win re-election for some time. I have on occasion stated I hope Obama is re-elected. That is somewhat true. It depends on the conservative candidate we have at the end. There are a few conservative candidates that I don't want in office because I don't feel they can do the job either. IF we are stuck with a President that can't do the job, I would prefer that president be a democrat. Hope that clarifies my position. I see no need to jump from one incompetent candidate to another. That is just my opinion.

Worst case scenario IMO, we elect an incompetent conservative, he makes things worse and we re-elect Obama in 2016.
