LOL, well if you really follow this jobs issue as I do then this Bush backpeddling is hysterical.

Apparently the detailed report from this last jobs report for Jan, really laid it out straight and clear that offshoring is the culprit for job loss. Not technology, not temps, not the lag factor or anything else that conservatives have been pointing to all these months. Steven Roach wrote about it in his commentary and now it is becoming clear and there is no denying that offshoring is causing pain, maybe short term but real pain nonetheless.

So, the Bush administration and their corporate crony donors can't hide behind technology anymore, they have to come up with something because people in west virginia are desperate! LOL, and their solution is "this is good for america people". I find this unraveling of the Bush team amusing.

I come from technlogy automation and we (tech) haven't added significant resource improvement in years. In fact, with all this offshoring, we are actually LESS productive than we used to be in the backoffice. The difference between the 90s and now is all this cheap third world labor being thrown at every problem.
