>> it's universally recognized that the Bush Lesser Decpression that he handed to Obama on taking office, was the worst economic calamity since the Hoover Great Depression.

No, it isn't "universally" recognized.

>> Current recession10.1% (U3 unemployment October 2009)17.4% (U6 unemployment - includes discouraged and underemployed October 2009)

Actually, 10.0% in Oct 2009. In 1982, the recession inherited from Carter, unemployment reached 10.8% and was over 10.0% for 10 straight months.

You can't just go by whatever people say. Because most people don't remember what happened 30 or more years ago; they don't remember how bad it was.
