Bush On Jobs: The Worst Track Record On Record

President George W. Bush entered office in 2001 just as a recession was starting, and is preparing to leave in the middle of a long one. That’s almost 22 months of recession during his 96 months in office.

His job-creation record won’t look much better. The Bush administration created about three million jobs (net) over its eight years, a fraction of the 23 million jobs created under President Bill Clinton’s administration and only slightly better than President George H.W. Bush did in his four years in office.


If you look at the chart you see the 4 worst job creators (since the government started keeping track) are Bush, Eisenhower, Bush Sr., and Ford, all Republicans.

The 4 best are Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, LBJ, and Reagan.

Once again, Republican rhetoric doesn't match reality.
