The economic destruction of the United State began with Reaganomics back in the 1980s. To blame it on a US President who has been in office 2 1/2 years is totally absurd. The Bush administration with their unpaid for tax cuts for the rich and their expensive wars did left the economy in shambles by the time Obama took office. And Republicans are running clown candidates because they don't want their mess dropped back in their laps in 2012. Capitalism run amok is the monster.
