This should come as no surprise to anyone who has not been drinking the enemedia Kool-Aid. Obama’s hard-left policies were ruinous for the American economy. It will take a long time to undo the damage he did.
“Obama was terrible for economic growth,” by Jonathon M. Trugman, New York Post, April 1, 2017 (thanks to Joy):
On Thursday we closed the book on the Obama economic “miracle” — and it’s a miracle we are not in a recession.
Last week the Commerce Department released its third revision for fourth-quarter 2016 gross domestic product. The number came in at a paltry 2.1 percent, meaning that growth during President Obama’s final year in office — the end of an “Error of Hope” — landed with a big thud at just 1.6 percent.
That low-water mark puts the Obama presidency in last place among all the post-World War II presidents when it comes to economic growth….
Thirteenth of 13 presidents is no mild distinction. Obama had eight full years to enact a growth policy, while many of his predecessors never had two complete terms. George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter had just four years each, Gerald Ford had less than three years and Richard Nixon had five….
Here are the average growth rates for each president:
Johnson (1964-68), 5.3 percent
Kennedy (1961-63), 4.3 percent
Clinton (1993-2000), 3.9 percent
Reagan (1981-88), 3.5 percent
Carter (1977-80), 3.3 percent
Eisenhower (1953-60), 3 percent
Nixon (1969-74), 2.8 percent
Ford (1975-76), 2.6 percent
G.H.W. Bush (1989-92), 2.3 percent
G.W. Bush (2001-08), 2.1 percent
Truman (1946-52), 1.7 percent
Obama (2009-16), 1.6 percent

Obama you are the most disgusting man America has ever had to endure.
I do not wish you well,and America is bigger than your hate for it.
Your attempts will ultimately fail and you have already secured your place in history as the worst most perverse American to ever serve the American people.
You were the biggest threat to the American way of life…You hate Americans, the Constitution, and free market capitalism. You destroyed our economy with measures like the ACA and immigration amnesty. The “Affordable” Care Act has been nothing short of a disaster. My health insurance bill is up to $450/month. (Compare this to my $25/month auto insurance from Insurance Panda or my $10/month renters insurance… both private enterprise!) Keep your hands off us!
You have tested my faith,and until now I tried to forgive enemies,but I will never accept you as anything but evil,you disgusting human being.
Seeing you fail ,and finally seeing your removal from office will be the best medicine and the largest blessing America could ever receive.
You can take your car “insurance wombat” scam and shove it!
Downvoted and reported!
Didn’t I meet you in a whore house in Laredo?
There are several published pictures of b insane obola actually flipping off all of America with his feet up on the Resolute Desk. Showing the soles of one’s feet is a highly offensive gesture in the islamonazi death cult. He’s laughing at us.
I’m laughing at you….
We are pissing on you.
Trump would love watching…
So you like golden showers with male audience. How quaint.
YOU ARE AN IMBECILE
What do you expect when you beat down the economy with endless rules and regulations.
Agree ! What do you expect when you vote for a senator who never held a job of any real managerial position.
When you vote someone who was no experience as Governor of state , Heck he never even ran a Pizza shop profitably…. and dumb voters elected him as President . Twice !
And it gets worse . Inspite of knowing he is a Muslim ! Its foolish to trust a muslim.
Left / liberal/Feminazi loons who support allowing more such immigrants are beginning to pay the price for their stupidity http://tinyurl.com/zcgplm3
Not certain if 2008 election was honest, 2012 was not honestly won, too much illegal voting went on then. He learned politics the Chicago way, would not bet on his elections there being honest. Every one turns checking his background brings up more stinky stuff. Just so thankful the illegal squatter in the WH is out of the country. If it looks like pending arrests, will he return in 3 weeks? It is questionable if French Polynesia cooperates with extradition, Qatar does not, where one of his mega million mansions is located. How does one purchase several mansions, costing millions each, when their income history does not meet requirements for qualification?
“Inspite” is not a word. Obama managed two excellent campaigns and did an excellent job by any metric other than GDP growth, which has been an issue for decades though of course your ability to understand any of this is obviously not great. He is not a Muslim but you are a moron.
o’bimbo is a muslim, you are an idiot and quite possibly a democrat. Your concept of the American national debit being in the trillions of dollars is lost on your minuscule mind which cannot grasp the concept.
National debit? Are you an imbecile or a moron?
All of the above, in addition I know the American national debit is beyond the comprehension of those who use “international finance and investment for dummies” as their only reference.
Yes.
When you are a FILTHY ISLAM0NAZI is what BHO is ,and a treasonous one at that. He should have been tried and convicted -but the GOP never fails to disappoint us- they need to be prodded along with sharp posts-
The GOP will be gone and PATRIOT-PARTY will take up the cause for FREEDOM AND THE CONSTITUTION.
you wouldn’t know what’s in the constitution if it crawled up your ass and bit you on your shriveled brain.
It crawled up yours and bit you brain? How did it ever find it’s way?
I want to a very good law school. And you?
Of course you did, graduated with honorers, magna cum laude and were the homecoming queen who scored the winning touchdown in the basket ball championship. No doubt you have a pulitzer prize and are in contention for the supreme court as well. Ooooh, it is to be impressed. Or did you go to some storefront community college to become a paralegal?
If he had spent that $10 trillion on infrastructure, like I told them in 2009, the Dems would have a permanent lock on the government.
<- By working on Facebook I'm making $90 to $120 per hour. I used to be jobless 6 months ago, but I am getting a relly good salary by doing this on-line job.

Obama’s election literally ruined my financial life. I wish him the misery of Hell.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average went from 7,949 at President Obama’s inauguration to 19,732 this past January 20th. If you lost money during his administration you have no one to blame but yourself. By the way, this article does Cirque Soleil-worthy contortions to distort the actual facts of Obama’s presidency, during which he inherited a grim financial crisis, second only to the Great Depression in our recent history, and helped turned the economy around while almost every other Western country struggled as well.
Some other achievements during his presidency, which historians will doubtless regard positively:
Homicides dropped 13 percent.
The economy added more than 9 million jobs, and the jobless rate dropped to below the historical median.
The number of long-term unemployed Americans dropped by 614,000.
Corporate profits were up 166 percent; real weekly wages were up 3.4 percent.
15 million fewer people lack health insurance.
Wind and solar power have nearly tripled, and now account for more than 5 percent of U.S. electricity
You and most of the others on this demented fake news site are living in a dream world – a nightmare of ignorance and hate. By the way, how do you think your candidate’s doing now? Better answer quickly – he may not be in office much longer!
Your alternate facts do not compensate for the fact that the o’bimbo years were disasters to America no mater what criteria used. Your statistics are as phoney as the three humped camel you rode in on.
you are forking moron. LOOK AT THE DJA AND THE NASDAQ. DOUBLED UNDER “O’BIMBO” GET BACK ON YOUR MEDS
Hogwash, if you knew anything about the stock market you wouldn’t be making a fool of yourself commenting on what you know nothing about.
I know plenty about it as does my financial advisor. My portfolio has doubled since 2009 but you “smartly” have no investments because you “know” better…. ur a laugh sensation.
How do you know what my financial situation is? Your presumption indicates that you are a loser on the stock market, as well as anywhere else. Double nothing is still nothing. Please keep investing in losers, you are meat on the table for others. Especially your “financial advisor” who is making money off of selling your ass in the street.
Target-rich environment, but I’ll take wind and solar. It’s one of the biggest scams since global warming. The equipment never generates enough power to pay for its expense and maintenance. That’s why it’s only installed when the government is stupid enough to subsidize it.
Wow you are in imbecile. Wind is now competitive with fossil fuel. Everything you’ve posted, which is complete horseshit:
http://meic.org/issues/montana-clean-energy/cost-of-wind-vs-fossil-fuels/
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-04-06/wind-and-solar-are-crushing-fossil-fuels
I could go on, but you’re not interested in facts of truth, which is why you infest Pamela Gelder’s site
So why are you here? Lost or stupid?
Entertainment
You are going to have to improve your act, as thus far, you definitely are not.
Here to enjoy a stupid list shmuck offering that choice.
Your contribution is definitely award winning, you qualify for a “Bozo”.
Show me one private company doing wind without any tax money.
Nice try changing the subject from energy cost. There are plenty of them but you know Exxon/Mobil gets huge taxpayer subsidies. China and Germany will own the energy future because of American stupidity and yours
If there are ‘plenty of them’, surely you wouldn’t mind naming one.
Mike can’t, he knows they do not exist, he has slunk off with his tail between his legs like the whipped mutt that he is.
Don’t change the subject, answer the question, as if you could, Giggle pseudo environmentalists are so cute when they babble about what they think is reality.
You are here because you were ridiculed off even democrat sites for being stupid. You could go on, the more you do, the stupider you look, please proceed.
Ever hear, figures don’t lie but liars do figure? You do know he had the way unemployment and such changed to reflect through outcome he desired? Health ins: my state used to have “charity hospitals, ” those w/o ins. went there. Sorry, I have worked, paid in to SS since 1956, I have paid my “dues” and my own insurance. Every county has one or more County Health Departments, offering many basic health needs, immunizations, etc., I have been there many times during my lifetime. My state has recently had to close some and shorten hours for others. People could go there instead of expensive Emergency Rooms for basic, first screening. Young adults should not be having to subsidize the insurance for those without. That is a horrible turn of events due to obama’s plan for exactly such. Taking from those working, giving to those spending their lives sitting on their bottoms! Payments are too high and deductible s too high to use! Sorry if lots of people do not have insurance, they were mostly making out before obama screwed up the good working system we had. Is your IQ room temperature? It must be if you believe the lies put out by the obama administration. I use lower case “o” for a reason, not an error in typing!
You obviously have the IQ of a doormat.
You have the iq of a prayer mat.
Wow you are a wit!
Keep trying, you are half ways to being one yourself.
No president controls the BLS. Back on your meds.

ALL true . . . I know it upsets you “Sno-flakes” . . . but them’s the FACTS ! ! !
Susan Rice’s White House Unmasking: A Watergate-style Scandal
Her interest was not in national security but to advance the political interests of the Democratic party. The thing to bear in mind is that the White House does not do investigations. Not criminal investigations, not intelligence investigations.

Ok, come up with different, that is believable.
From Canada
I think Obama was the worst President ever
Just 1 example, forcing citizens to buy medicare or be fined
And 1 more, constantly talking and talking
Just to hear himself talking
Just like Justin Trudeau, they got along great apparently
Was extremely happy to see Trump elected
I was really surprised that crooked Hill & Bill
Managed to get as many votes as they did
Please stay in Canada.
Please come up here, yeah, we’d love to see you, giggle.
I visit often actually
Next time you are passing through, please do so.
Thank-you for your concern
I feel much safer travelling in the USA now that Trump is President
While Her Majesty HRC
Wandered aimlessly through tangled woods
Trying unsuccessfully to untangle her brain
I was very cautious and stayed at lodgings
Far removed from wooded areas
From whence she or her pack
Of reality bereft minions
Might suddenly assault me
During Obama’s disasterious 8 years
Just 1 time per year did I visit USA
Real Americans are very nice people
You sound like an angry American
Perhaps with the new healthcare plan
You could get the pre-existing anger under control
Nothing personal, maybe Anger Management
The fact that BHO is an islam 0 nazi puts him in a CRIMINAL world. You are a liar and no doubt part of the Democrat’s corrupt value system. Thumbs down to a liar !
nimitta: you are too nice to these hate filled cretins. They only respond to the kind of crap they spew.
And you two are right in with them with your snouts shoved into the thought right top to the eyeballs. Giggle you are so cute when you are indignantly stupid.
With a national debit in the trillions of dollars, you haven’t really got two nickels to rub together.
YES BECAUSE THE STOCK MARKET DOUBLED, THE HOUSING MARKET RECOVERED, ENERGY PRICES ARE LOW, INFLATION IS LOW, AND THERE WAS RECORD JOB GROWTH. SO YOUR JOB AS A “BEGGAR” WAS NEGATIVELY AFFECTED.
Are you illiterate, stupid, or possibly both?
Are you an imbecile, a moron or definitively both?
Defiantly both plus a whole lot more. So? You are the one who had to ask, shall I draw you a picture?
Fareed should be hog feed.
Obhammud is the worst President EVER! Bar none, hands down, case closed, however you wish to phrase it.
And calling Obama ‘President’ isn’t even accurate because he passed off a phony birth certificate. Obama wasn’t even qualified for the job.
Everything Obama did was a farce. His anemic economic growth, his apology tour, his foreign policy and his scandal ridden administration all was a big farce.
What bullshit from this transgendered idiot.
Obama inherited FROM A REPUKLICAN the WORST economy since the Great Depression.
Stock market HALVED.
Credit market FROZEN.
Housing bubble BURST,
and 11% unemployment as we lost 700,000 jobs a MONTH.
SINCE THEN: under 5% unemployment (measured the same way as when a white guy is in the White House)
stock market MORE THAN DOUBLED,
RECORD job creation
housing market recovered
credit market recovered,
AUTO INDUSTRY AGAIN HEALTHY etc.
LOW inflation
LOW energy prices
You have to be an IMBECILE to not acknowledge these things. You want to talk about GDP growth? There’s a serious discussion to be had about that, but don’t expect it from Pamela Gelding.
You don’t like the jobs created? Blame robots. Robots have taken over semi-skilled jobs that used to pay $30 an hour and they are NOT coming back nor are the coal jobs also taken now by automation. You think Trump is bringing manufacturing jobs back to America? He makes all of his crap overseas as does Ivanka for the same reasons as everyone does: cheap labor.
Pamela Gelding is MORON repeating the moronic words found in the kitty litter box New York Pest
Your you are attracted to her, such is puppy love, you are so cute when you’re horny.
