How can the President forget the magnitude of the recession?

Doesn't he read the newspapers or watch the news?

RUSH: "Sometimes I forget" the "magnitude" of the recession. He said it just before the Hollywood extravaganza. He says this just before he hops on Air Force One. He says this after living in the White House for three-and-a-half years, after partying nonstop, after vacationing, after golfing as if he was a retired lottery winner in the Kennedy family. He says, "Sometimes I forget" the "magnitude" of the recession.

Remember when George H. W. Bush was raked over the coals 'cause he didn't know what a supermarket scanner was? Well, you don't remember that, Rachel, because you were not even out of the womb then. But back in 1990, '91, George H. W. Bush went to a grocery store, he's president, he'd never seen a supermarket scanner. He said, "What's that?" They showed him and he said, "Wow, that's really cool." And they dumped all over him. Presidents go to grocery stores every day, right? The usual question, "Mr. President, do you know what the price of milk is?" "Uhhhh, no." Obama: "Sometimes I forget" the "magnitude" of the recession.

OBAMA: It was a house of cards, and it collapsed in the most-destructive, worst crisis that we've seen since the Great Depression. Sometimes people forget the magnitude of it, you know? Sometimes I forget. Eight hundred thousand lost their jobs in the month that I took office, and it was tough.

RUSH: "Sometimes I forget" the "magnitude" of the recession. He says that as though he wants credit. He was in Seattle. He's forgotten to cut the national debt in half in his first term like he said he was gonna do. So after all the partying -- after all the times on Air Force One, after all of the jobs bills, after all the stimulus -- his administration has been focused on bringing the economy back, has it not? According to him?

According to him, the whole reason he was there has been to revitalize the US economy for people. And he says, "Sometimes I forget" the "magnitude" of the recession? He wants credit for this? I never forget it. I can't get it out of my mind! I bet most Americans have not forgotten "the magnitude" of the recession. He's also forgotten to create jobs.
