The first 1.5 million in job losses "under Bush" happened in Clinton's last month (Jan-01). Look it up if you you don't believe it. >>

I would also suggest the majority of those laid off were "over-hires' due to the Y2K activity, and no longer needed when all the programming and modifications to industry and business had been completed, never to be needed again. Semi-permanent jobs, as it were. Not to be needed again until Y3K.
