How to frame the NBER press release: "The Great Bush Recession began 12/2007 and ended 06/2009"

Growth returned 5 months after Obama took office.

Anemic growth to be sure... and we have so much farther to go... but growth nonetheless.

The real point is that we have to keep hammering the name... the "Bush Recession". Never let anyone forget.

1. Simple messages....

President Obama ended the recession in six months.

2. I'm so relieved that the top 2% have seen an end to the recession.

Those at the bottom are not feeling it. Trickle down economics are still not working.

3. Which is exactly what Obama said today... it's not enough to be growing again...

...until everybody is back to work.

But we'd be at 15% unemployment instead of 10% if it weren't for Obama.
