FACT CHECK: Obama disowns deficit he helped shape

[DEDixon 39]

Obama will come out of this smelling like a rose (as they say). The business cycle will eventually kick in... you know, that is when businesses and households go from wanting things to actually needing things so at this point the economy will kick into overdrive and Obama will, for sure, claim to have saved the day when in fact, it was just the business cycle kicking in.

There is no better time to become President than while the economy is in the tank.

No doubt he'll be re-elected too. After this downturn, the next upturn will last throughout the next election and as we all know, as long as the economy is doing well, as long as Americans can shop, they aren't so concerned about who is President.
