You are clearly blinded by B.O.'s slick presentation and nice smile.

I'm not blinded by anything, but apparently you are. The 5 percent number occurred in January of 2008 Larry. Look at the effing chart. Obama took office in January of 2009, with an unemployment of 7.8 percent. It is now within a half point of what it was when he was sworn in. I didn't quote any numbers about the debt. Only the deficit. Unemployment and the deficit, LITTLE improvements you called for in your post are what I spoke directly to. My point is proved, yours isn't. There are improvements in both.
I surely must have something better to do than waste my time trying to make a point with someone who
1. Cannot, apparently read a simple spreadsheet or doesn't know when the current president took office.
2. Is blinded by a suspect hatred that runs far deeper than numbers and has more to do with colors and names.
If it wasn't so much ****ing fun, I'd quit.
