The term has NEVER been used when a Democrat is in office by the MSM. During 2000, the country had entered a true economic slowdown, when then candidate Bush referred to it he was skewered mercillessly by the MSM, Bush was right, of course. During 1980 the country was in the midst of a nearly 3% contraction. It wasn't mentioned at all in the press, why, because Jimmy Carter was in office. The public knew better and threw him out of office. On and on we can go about this, dating all the way back to the depression, when FDR was reelected three times following the same failed economic policies as Hoover did and scarcely helping the American economy at all.

No improvement in our pathetic oil production and no improvement in our overburdened power industry. Just more attacks on the very industries we need to spur growth and expand the economy. The Congress dwaddles away its time with attacks on our military, our private employers and sports figures. It offers huge subsidies to food producers to drive the supply side toward destruction. It whines about the environment and thwarts every effort to find new energy sources . In other words this Congress is a total failure . And not one word of their hopeless floundering is ever covered seriously by the MSM. All they do is blame George Bush. For this we are supposed to reward this pack of liars a Democratic President and a veto proof majority in the House and Senate. I would rather see the economy and our nation in total ruin before rewarding this pack of jackals anything. Come to think of it, I believe that is what we will see.

Once the Dems took over Congress, they've threatened the economy with all kinds of stupidity, and businesses responded by slowing down any growth until after the election in case the Dems win. Why expand if you are just going to be punished. “The Democrat Effect” in full force.
