It is the REPUBLICAN economy, stupid.

When you hear someone try to blame our President for the economy please point out to them that it is not his economy, it is a Republican economy.The Republican's agenda from the start was to defeat President Obama by pinning him with a bad economy with little to no job growth.

As we know, the President proposes, the Congress disposes. The House of Representatives is currently under Republican hands, THEY control the purse strings. So what has this Republican House done when it comes to job creation? From what I can tell after reading Mike Stanhill's observations, NOTHING! http://republicanjobcreation.com/

Not only have they NOT created any jobs they have deliberately obstructed our economy from growing! Please read Mike Pridmire's take on this over at the Daily Kos.

So next time you hear someone try to tell you that it is the 'economy stupid', be sure to let them know that it is the REPUBLICAN economy, not the Obama economy.
