Bob, I have no idea what you want me to correct. I've reviewed the data, it appears correct. You wrote: "Correct this - it has not happened in the last 12 months!" (I didn't say it did! - what is there to correct?) I original wrote: "The issues remain: the economy (2.5 million private sector jobs lost while running HUGE deficits ~$700 billion over the last 12 months)" Both numbers are correct. The first number was referring to the private sector jobs lost during Bush's term, the second was referring to the deficit over the last 12 months. Perhaps you were confused when I switched from "while running HUGE deficits" (plural, referring to the HUGE annual deficits that Bush is running). Then I gave an example of ~$700 Billion over the last 12 months. Perhaps that confused you. I posted 670 thousand jobs added over the last 12 months (Isn't this what you were looking for?). None of my statements have been careless. In fact, they have been accurate and on point.
