I quote, Obama cited figures showing that average family incomes had risen under President Clinton and declined under President Bush. "Up under Democrats, down under this administration," he said, applauding a former president widely reported as still bitter over his wife's defeat in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
First, Clinton was a long time ago, as our Liberal friends always remind us when we point to his administration.
Second, even Obama seems confused about who handles the purse strings of this nation, blaming the Administration. He seems to forget that it is Congress that is largely responsible for the economy. Funny, Republican's under Clinton, and Democrats under Bush, especially the last two years.

I am surprised you didn't mention that today's economic conditions are political issues that were really was set into motion over 8 years ago. Thanks, Bill & Hill. And thanks for pointing out that the Constitution is what is suppose to control this government, and all the money matters are started in the House, not the president's office. Truth is, it shouldn't matter what monkey is in the White House, but for some media reason it matters greatly; but the media is not alone in this! Just very helpful in the distraction.
