December 2007 was just one year after Obama began to run for office-----just one year after Pelosi took over as Speaker of the House. Why did you Democrats stand by and let this greatest recession happen since the depression as you state. Yes this is Pelosi, Obama and the Democrat Party's recession.

ken...BS..."The stimulus is already working. Many more jobs would have been lost without the stimulus."... Here is what your god hussein obama has created...unfortunately there are thousands of dumbed down nutters who actually believe this crap. ..."You have created a situation where you cannot be wrong. If the economy loses two million jobs over the next few years, you can say, 'Yes, but it would have lost 5.5 million jobs.' If we create a million jobs, you can say, 'Well, it would have lost 2.5 million jobs," Baucus told Geithner, adding, "You've given yourself complete leverage where you cannot be wrong because you can take any scenario and make yourself look correct."...

$9 Billion in ‘Stimulus’ for Solar, Wind Projects Made 910 Final Jobs - $9.8 Million Per Job By Michael W. Chapman and Fred Lucas June 20, 2012 (CNSNews.com) - The Obama administration distributed $9 billion in economic “stimulus” funds to solar and wind projects in 2009-11 that created, as the end result, 910 “direct” jobs - annual operation and maintenance positions - meaning that it cost about $9.8 million to establish each of those long-term jobs. At the same time, those green energy projects also created, in the end, about 4,600 “indirect” jobs - positions indirectly supported by the annual operation and maintenance jobs - which means they cost about $1.9 million each ($9 billion divided by 4,600). Combined (910 + 4,600 = 5,510), the direct and indirect jobs cost, on average, about $1.63 million each to produce. As explained in a report by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, which is part of the U.S. Department of Energy, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (“economic stimulus”) of 2009 included Section 1603, a grant program run through the Treasury Department.
