I heard this reported on NPR this morning with (I think) Mara explaining how this growth is bad news because it is a sign of a slow down.

Ironically, the very next story was about the gop's threat to hold the debt ceiling hostage, again, and the shaking of consumer and business confidence it had last time around.

We can only hope that We D. People can do the math ... gop + obstruction = economic uncertainty; And, economic uncertainty = slow-down in economic growth; therefore, economic slow-down = gop and/or obstruction.
