What about the rest of the post?

To sum up the highlights

First
Real GDP growth

2003 2.45 %
2004 3.10 %
2005 4.40 %
2006 3.20 %
2007 3.20 %
2008 2.20 %

Then

If a gain is temporary, and you subtract it out from the year it occurs, but don't add it back in the year when the end of the temporary gain actually impacts the GDP statistics then your double counting the negative.

Considering those two points "1% or a bit below", or even "1.5%", seems way too low to reflect reality.
