yeah whats missing is we are not talking about the 96-00 period Michael, that was still the "Clinton economy" when we were creating 350K jobs/month. WIth an economy of this size we need to generate 18K jobs per year just to break even.
data.bls.gov

Jan 2001: 132471 "the Bush economy"
Oct 2006: 135844

See the problem here Michael?
The Bush economy created 3.3 million jobs in 5 years, or 56K jobs per month, about ONE THIRD of what we need just to handle population growth.

In Comparison look at the early non-bubble Clinton years:
Jan 1992: 108313
Jan 1996: 118192

The Clinton economy created 10 million jobs in 4 years.
