Obama Retracts 'Economy is Doing Fine'




It didn’t take long for the RNC to mock the Anointed One on his ridiculous statement that the economy is doing fine. Nor, did it take long for Chicago Jesus to retract it:

"It is absolutely clear the economy is not doing fine," he said in a brief appearance before cameras in the Oval Office following a meeting with Philippine President Benigno Aquino.

“That’s the reason I had a press conference," Obama continued. "That’s why I spent yesterday, the day before yesterday, this past week, this past month and this past year talking about how we can make the economy stronger. The economy is not doing fine. There are too many people out of work. The housing market is still weak, too many homes underwater and that’s precisely why I asked Congress to start taking some steps that can make a difference.”

It must be tiring having to constantly talk about the economy at all those fundraisers. This president has the stamina of a thoroughbred.
