>>BTW we have been losing jobs at that rate since Bush took office so it is not just a one year quirk.

I suppose 9/11 and it's after-affects had nothing at all to do with that. Additionally the huge stock market bubble that formed under Clinton/Gore burst. I'd love to see how well Gore would be doing now in the same situation! LOL!

"I do detest this admin"

Why? I think you are just prejudiced and hateful, like many in the demo party. You badmouth as "dismal" the record of the administration, and we are at 5.8% unemployment, with prospects looking up as the war nears its end. If you were an "optimistic" person you would have a different view of this relatively good rate (excellent when the attack of 9-11 and the fact we are at war are considered).

I also note that your post is in response to the LIE that AS put forward that this is the WORST ECONOMY SINCE HOOVER. My response to him proved that is an outright LIE, and he has not had the balls to respond (because he knows he lies to attack the administration). I comend you for acknowledging your HATRED of the fine Americans that run our country, but would like to see you acknowledge the FACT that this hatred colors your view. You guys will be in a real tough nut when you see the admiration and thanks from the Iraqi people that many in your party want to keep oppressed. You seem like many of the despicable party liners that will attack and attack until your base is a shadow of what it once was. It is great for the country and the future, because we will go down in flames if the appeasing party of hand-outs starts running the show. You must see what damage 8 years of Clinton left us with. I have not seen such a dismal performance since Carter left us with 20+% interest, double digit inflation, American hostages held by our enemies and HUGE unemployment.

Anybody who thinks 5.8% unemployment with no inflation and 3% annual gdp growth is dismal in the circumstances we find ourselves in is and idiot, a liar or both.
