@buoymarker Q: When did this economic crisis start?
A: Late 2007.
Q: When did Obama take over the office?:
A: Early 2008.
Q: Has the economic crisis turned into "the Second Great Depression" like they said?
A: No.
Q: Has the economy been improving for the last 2 years (the period you can really attribute to Obama's policies)?
A: Without a doubt.

Not to mention that the president doesn't really play a huge role in the improvement of the economic situation. There are about 100 different factors involved in turning this crisis around. People like to assume the president runs everything and thus blame everything on the president. Either way I would rather have the economy gradually increase by 2% every year like it has for the last two years under Obama than nothing at all or worse like I feel Romney would do.

@Foxbattle All true, except that Obama actually took office in January 2009, the election was November 2008. Just FYI

I like how you try and trick us into clicking on your video by showing a picture of Romney and then it winds up being this dumb ass "young turks" fuckhead. Nice try but now I'll be paying more attention looking for your user name as the poster so I can SKIP THIS BULL SHIT.

And Obama already has raised our taxes.. not to mention all the debt.. which is also a tax. Where did you think the money is going to come from to pay the debt?

@camy011 What the hell are you talking about? Obama lowered taxes for everyone but the rich.
The debt has been accumulated over centuries, and most of the new debt came from the stimulus packages and bailouts that were actually proposed by Bush back in late 2007.
Remember this?:

How about we pay our way instead of dumping this debt on our children? No matter how much you tax the "rich" it cant possibly pay for our current debt. With 47% not paying any Federal Income Tax maybe EVERYBODY should pay something.
Obama has no plan, zero. This is simply another attack on Romney to keep the conversation away from Obama's failed policies.

@j2nh - Obviously in your World, there are no children (who don't pay taxes) retirees (who don't pay taxes) or people of families living below the poverty level (who pay taxes, but receive benefits). You add these societal groups together and they make up 40+% of the US population.

So, for those of you who pay ZERO now while enjoying all of the infrastructural beauty, it's time you pay your fair share, as Obama says

Stop. Just Stop.
The Senate and the House passed the Tax Rate EXTENSION on Wedensday. It included all Americans. ALL AMERICANS.
President Obama has promised to Veto it because the Bill includes Americans who make over $250K. So, all us poor Americans will have to suffer EQUALLY with the rich because OBAMA wants to punish people who make over $250K income a year.
We who make Less than $250K a year will SUFFER higher taxes because OBAMA wants to VETO a TAX EXTENSION. EXTENSION. EXTENSION. More..
