Neat how they measure changes from the beginning of his term to today, and ignore the possibility that a recession and 911 may have had something to do with anemic net gains. Demagogues. Nearly every major economic indicator has deteriorated since you took office in January 2001

>>Under your administration, the income gap between the most affluent Americans and everyone else has widened. The percentage of people living in poverty has also decreased. Edwards says the number has increased, which is true, but the population has grown, as well, so it's dishonest to look at the number rather than the percentage. If 4 out of a hundred were impoverished in year one, and 5 out of two hundred were impoverished in year two, you're lying if you say the economy is getting worse. So you just say the number in poverty has increased. It's still a lie of omission.
