>Minimum wage. One of the first things Democrats did after taking back Congress in 2007 was raise the federal minimum wage 41% from 2007 to 2009. Result? The unemployment rate went from 4.4% in May 2007 to 10.1% in 2009. It is 9.2% even today -- four years later.

ROTFLMAO!!!!! What a STUPID relation.... Here they blame minimum wage on the rising unemployment rate... Of course, they neglect to tell you that the VAST majority of jobs lost had pay above the min wage... They of course, neglect to tell you that the job lose probably had something to do with the rising cost of oil, the global financial crunch, jobs being exported to China, the housing bubble going poof along with the construction jobs... STUPID, STUPID, STUPID.

I just read that part and will carry on reading the rest and will do a hack job on that POS.
