Obama inherited an economy that lost 750,000 jobs in his first month in office.

26. Republican hypocrites

They conveniently forget about the 8 years of Bush and how Bush, H.W. Bush, and Reagan made the deficit soar. They conveniently brainwash themselves into thinking that Obama caused the job losses and soaring deficit, when Obama came in when we were in jobs freefall and the deficit going out of control. We needed the stimulus bill to help avert crisis. Yes, Obama should have done much more than he has, and he should've used the American people to bully Congress, but he has done more than any Republican would have ever done, because any Republican would have just done tax cuts that would also benefit the rich, which is a waste of money. And yes, the Republicans would rather have more than a hundred million Americans suffer from the economy, financial terror, and uncertain futures by stonewalling what Obama and the Democrats wanted to pass to help the economy just so they would have a shot at getting the presidency this year.
