Obama has Prevented a GOP-Caused Depression. But Not Recession.

We are all going to be living with the GOP-caused damage to the U.S. economy that put us on the precipice of a second Great Depression. Obama stabilized things, renewed confidence, saved some large banks and companies, put millions back to work and stopped the free fall.

We still face the Republican caused worst recession since World War II. We just have to work through it. But without Obama, this ciuntry is in the rathole today.

Thank god we elected Obama. But he can't fix the GOP damage in a year or even two. This is long term effort. No President ever inherited such a disaster.
