英语文摘：Obama says U.S. economy "still hurting"

But Obama said that he had not made any determinations about changing personnel on his team.

Obama said, "This is tough work that they do."

Actually, Christina Romer, former Chairwoman of White House Council of Economic Advisors resigned in earlier September. Romer is one of the key planners of the Obama administration's economic stimulus policy.

Obama repeated that the current economic difficulty is the result of the previous administration and he asked the American people for more patience.

"Something that took ten years to create is going to take a little more time to solve," Obama said.

In President George W. Bush's eight years in office, the United States fell into two recessions. The first started in March 2001 and ended that November. The second one started in December 2007.

In responding to the critics that the country's economic situation is on the wrong track, Obama said that everything is not "where it needs to be," but that the nation is "moving in the right direction."

As for criticism that his policies are anti-business, Obama said they've helped businesses be profitable, and stabilized financial markets.
