We are coming out of the depression bush put us in. Even FDR had set backs.

But whatever you post, pales in comparison to how crazy and evil Romney.

We are voting for Obama to escape the disastrous ideas of Romney as much as anything.

He has the mind of a child indoctrinated with horseshit.

<<US GDP growth rate is not really that hard to Google:

2011q4 4.1
2012q1 2.0
2012q2 1.3

It is obviously slowing down, as mindmeld has been saying.

Here is a historical Excel version:

Notice the growth rate in 1980s, following a similarly deep recession:

1982q4 0.3
1983q1 5.1
1983q2 9.3
1983q3 8.1
1983q4 8.5
1984q1 8.0
1984q2 7.1
1984q3 3.9
1984q4 3.3
1985q1 3.8
1985q2 3.4
