Is the economy recovering or is the Obama Administration spinning it?
Yes, the economy is recovering even if slowly. It defies logic to think that false information could be effective over so a long a period of time. If Obama is spinning so must have been Bush and Reagan and every modern president whose administration occured during an economic downturn since JFK.
No it isn't. All Presidents put things in their best light. BUT The deficit is rising at astronomical proportions. If things are this way come election time, he will do something unthinkable to remain in power.
I do not think the economy is recovering but whether the Obama Administration is spinning it is not easy to answer. I do agree some aspects appear to be starting on the road to recovery but whether the projection being presented will stay on course nobody really knows.
I also agree some aspects of the economy are strong but overall the economy is not having the activity, especially in overall jobs, where it should to identifying it to be in a recovery atmosphere.
It's just the Obama spin, the deficit is climbing, the budget not balanced, gas prices going up, many of the people on unemployment benefits have run out, taking them out of the numbers. Food stamps is at an all time high, so is the size of our government. It's a false recovery until after the election.
