Excerpt of article -- By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press Writer Matt Apuzzo, Associated Press Writer


WASHINGTON – White House economists said Thursday that the Obama administration's recovery efforts have saved or created more than one million jobs so far...



What a great and refreshing story to hear! For months (daresay the past year), magazine and newspaper articles have been filled with all of the negative economic statistics...and everyone is quick to blame the Obama Administration and continually insult the "stimulus."

I have never made it a secret that I am an Obama supporter. I come from a long line of Democrats. I have an uncle who was registered with the Republican party (much to the dismay of family members!) and has since denounced that party due to the strife and political practices that had taken place over the past eight or so years.



I get tired of everyone blaming Obama for our current state-- we got ourselves into this mess and it didn't occur overnight. Business practices and the economy as a whole took years of downward spiral to finally collapse...so why are people ready to air their "disapproval" ratings?? It's because things haven't "magically" and miraculously been fixed in the nine or so months since Obama was inaugurated...Has it occurred to people that it can takes years to build what's fallen??
