And I never said Obama had anything to do with the crash. That was GW's administration. But he did preside over the recovery. And if you ask any economist he will tell you it was a failure. These are quantifiable numbers here not conjecture. And on top of that, Obama implemented massive federal regulations and compliance issues that costs employers in the trillions of dollars (look it up yourself).

I voted for Obama in 08. If you go through my post history around that time i'm sure you find me praising him and slamming GW. I just think Obama was bad for business and even worse for race relations.
