Incorrect, as usual, Kenneth...

We have reached the 17th month of the longest recession since the Great Depression.

According to your precious NBER:

The committee identified December 2007 as the peak month, after determining that the subsequent decline in economic activity was large enough to qualify as a recession.
nber.org

So if December 2007 was the peak of economic activity, then January 2008 would be the start...

12 months of 2008 plus 3 months for 2009 = 15 months.

You really need a remedial math course don't you? You are ever the useful idiot, Kenneth. LOL!

Diz-

PS: Just an observation, Kenneth...but over the last 24 hours you have posted 8 times on 2 threads.

These 3 were responding to other people:
Message 25538487
Message 25538492
Message 25539406

However these 5 were just posted to the thread:
Message 25537673
Message 25537681
Message 25537732
Message 25537860
Message 25538354

The 5 five that you posted to just the thread were venal at best but smelled more like antagonistic propaganda. I guess Obama's teleprompter finally got around to sending you his talking points, eh? LOL!

Correct. Any guesses as to how many job losses there will be during Obama's first year?

Things are certainly worse than last year
