Recession - From June 2009 to June 2012, inflation-adjusted median household income fell 4.8 percent, to $50,964, according to a report by Sentier Research, a firm headed by two former Census Bureau officials.

Economists had expected an increase to 66, according to a Reuters poll.

  1. I watched the Chris Matthews – Reince Priebus interview on UTube and I was reminded of what bullies the liberals always are. Then I read further about the “Kill Mitt Romney” site on Facebook and it’s almost laughable how these people are all the same.
