Well, that didn’t take long:
Hours after saying the private sector is “doing fine,” President Obama on Friday walked back those remarks, saying it’s “absolutely clear” the economy is not fine.
“That’s precisely why I asked Congress to start taking some steps to make a difference,” Obama said.
Obama corrected himself at a press availability in the Oval Office just hours after after he made the original remark to reporters in the White House briefing room

Not withstanding the fact that Obama did not blunder in his comment, you’re exactly right.
Great SNL clip. I miss Gilda. She was the best.
Probably the greatest irony with all this is that Obama can’t really be blamed for being so completely clueless about how the private sector operates much less how to make it successful. Getting involved at a very young age with machine Chicago politicos is not exactly in that regard a good education or a good training platform.
