>> You can spin it anyway you want, but the change is clear and unmistakable. Was it the stimulus+TARP+Fed ? Probably. But you don't get to say that the economy did not improve.

The graphic is totally misleading. It is lying with statistics if ever there was one.

The graphic was carefully chosen to reflect the drop in employment -- the worst of which occurred after Obama took office but also leading up to his taking office as it became apparent he had no clue what to do, economically.

And we see a temporary bounce early in 2010 and then, essentially flatline into perpetuity.

It is NOT an endorsement of the stimulus. But it is entirely misleading in the effort to do so.
