        @WSJ And Obama was also handed the worst economy since Hoover handed off to FDR, so let's compare like with like.

        @dodgerblue_42 We should all blame the Republicans, those religio-fascist, unpatriotic, antiAmerican creeps: McConnell, Cantor, Ryan et al.

        @WSJ President Obama has been creating job since he has been in office. Give the man some credit! What did George Bush do?

        @WSJ relative term IMO. While I maybe better off (due to my hard work) many of my friends and family are not. America as a whole is worse

        @WSJ ironically we gave FDR 3 terms, which many would say positively changed the face of our country. Could Obama be the man for 2012?

        @WSJ @steventiano is right. This stat is pretty irrelevant based on the fact that he was handed the worst economy since FDR
