<< the fact is we have lost more jobs in the last few years than any other presidential period. More jobs than in the 70s recession, more than that awful 82 period with the goring of manufacturing and the horrible productivity of the US worker. What caused it- offshoring of service professionals and I don't mean just IT. >>

That's baloney. 'Offshoring' is not to blame for th job losses in the last few years. The bursting of the bubble is.

Co's like Lucent with Carly Fiorina laying off high-wage people like crazy, now she's at HPQ doing the same thing.. Enron.. Worldcom .. Nortel .. Global Crossing .. Value America .. T .. NRG .. Pets.com .. AMR .. CMGI .. VA Linux .. Vicinty .. these co's did not 'offshore' - they hit the delete key on all those jobs.
