Your title.

How can the math be off if you admit that the Bush era was a massive setback and that ungrateful, greedy scum like me were getting "nothing but shit" until Obama led us out of the wilderness?

What awesome things happened during the Clinton years that anyone could decribe as three steps forward, while seeing the G. W. Bush years as a mere two steps back? In my opinion the good things that did happen under Clinton pale in comparison to the wreckage wrought by Republican rule.

Or do you see Obama's cautious steps forward as far greater in magnitude than Clinton's?

I'd like to know what kind of equations you are using.
