Political Quotes

On the recordMay 18, 2010
I just want to quote from Business Week, April 8, 2010. This is a quote by Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Economy.com. ``When you take it all together, the response to the recession was massive, unprecedented, and ultimately successful.'' Even the Obama critics, such as Phil Swagel, Assistant Treasury Secretary for Economic Policy under George Bush, acknowledged the White House policies have been successful. ``Their economic policies, including the stimulus,'' which I like to call the recovery bill, ``have helped move the economy in the right direction.''
