GDP revised down in 1st quarter (Good time to talk climate change)

As we celebrate the 5th anniversary of "the stimulus", our friend Mr Tepid is back.

Yes, the US economy continues to lack a recovery.  

It has a lot of new regulations, EPA mandates, Obama Care rules that no one understands, a commitment to killing coal and a president who talks climate change rather than telling Putin to release Mr Snowden.

We learned today that the GDP was revised down for the 1st quarter, from 2.5% to a very pathetic 1.8%:

"U.S. economic growth was more tepid than previously estimated in the first quarter, held back by a moderate pace of consumer spending, weak business investment and declining exports.
Gross domestic product expanded at a 1.8 percent annual rate, the Commerce Department said in its final estimate on Wednesday. Output was previously reported to have risen at a 2.4 percent pace after a 0.4 percent stall speed in the fourth quarter."

I guess we had another one of those "tepid" quarters!

We need to drone this fellow "tepid"!
