Just say the economic situation as it is: A Recession. It's not that difficult.

2. It's well beyond recession. Try "depression"

We were well into a recession several years ago, long before Obama took office. Bush ran the economy into the ground with his irresponsible tax cuts and increased military spending. What we're facing now is a full-blown Depression.

3. I'm tired of hearing in ads trying to sell me something.
