To say that Obama 'crashed the economy' is probably one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read on this forum.
Believe what you want, but the facts remain! The third quarter of 2008, the economy lost 235,000 jobs over those 3 months. Typical of a recessionary period. By the start of the 4th quarter, Obama had opened up an 8 point lead over McCain and the writing was on the wall. The economy lost more jobs in October than the previous 3 months before that, as wise businessmen throughout the country became aware that in the first few days of November, Obama and his anti-business agenda would be elected.
Okay, so first you said that Obama crashed the economy in his first three years, and now you're saying that he did it before he was even elected, which makes even less sense.
And to call what happened in the third quarter of 2008 a 'typical recessionary period' is ludicrous.
There was NOTHING typical about it.
