Dem Analyst: Recession happened 2 1/2 years ago because of debt ceiling fight last month or something

The recession ended, according to economists, June 2009. It started in 2008, before the tea party was even created. How that recession can be pinned on the tea party is beyond me, but this guy (who is trying to set a record for how many times he can say "extreme" in relation to conservatives) gave it a shot nonetheless:

Of course: Obama blames Congress for recession

Here we go again:

From al Reuters: Obama accuses Congress of holding back U.S. recovery

A vacationing U.S. President Barack Obama accused Congress on Saturday of holding back the U.S. economic recovery by blocking "common sense" measures he said would create jobs and help growth.

..."The only thing preventing us from passing these bills is the refusal by some in Congress to put country ahead of party. That's the problem right now. That's what's holding this country back," the president said in his weekly radio address, which is also transmitted on the Internet.

"We're going through a tough time right now. We're coming through a terrible recession," he said. "So we need folks in Washington -- the people whose job it is to deal with the country's problems, the people who you elected to serve -- we need them to put aside their differences to get things done."

Actually, the GOP is getting done what they were elected to do - stopping Obama from further destroying the US economy. The GOP had an appropriate response to The One:

...In the Republicans' weekly address, Ohio Governor John Kasich said it was wrong for the president to stand aside and blame others for the impasse that has also affected legislation related to immigration, energy and other issues.

"Divided government is no excuse for inaction," said Kasich, a former chairman of the House Budget Committee.

"There's just no substitute for leadership from the president of the United States," Kasich said. ...

Instead of leadership, we have a manchild that is unqualified for office. At least until next November.
