Obama was wise to point out that we're not out of the woods yet, because we're not. He has pointed that out, plenty of times. He doesn't go out of his way to paint a rosey picture of the economy or the job market. Actually, if I remember correctly, he was very adamant about breaking the rosey picture that Bush was trying to paint through the end of his term. Also, I thought it was pretty common knowledge that the job market most always lags behind the general economy/stocks/etc when things begin to bounce back up, so I wouldn't be saddling up the calvary yet to nail obama to a cross because the job market hasn't had the rebound that stocks have had and everything. I can sit here and say give him a little more time until I'm blue in the face, but it doesn't matter because the haters are going to grasp straws no matter what; I mean come on.... they were grasping straws and blaming him for everything an hour after he took office!Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
