Funny how 'normal' unemployment was much lower under Clinton than Bush.

Funny how you have a fantasy that it was, when the reality is the overall average unemployment over both presidents terms was about the same.



...

From p. 3 of Bowman's recent study "The State of the American Worker 2008: Attitudes About Work in America," based on Gallup poll results:

QUESTION: How satisfied or dissatisfied are you with your job/the work you do?

Clinton Years Average (1993 - 2000): 39.75% of American Workers Reported Being Completely Satisfied, 86.25% Completely or Somewhat Satisfied

Bush Years Average (2001 - 2008): 44.63% of American Workers Reported Being Completely Satisfied, 88.5% Completely or Somewhat Satisfied

Not funny at all - that's what happens when our government won't address real energy independence and oil prices rise - unemployment is natural under those circumstances. I see Barry doesn't have a viable plan - but that's redundant for dems.
