Mindmeld => You are dealing in broad generalizations that belie the reality. American workers have suffered the most under Bush. Under Clinton, all boats rose. So those facts alone prove the innaccuracy of your post.

Neeka305 => Ridiculous statement! Prove it!

Mindmeld => The figures below are from www.bls.gov. The statistics prove that under Clinton workers did substantially better. Hard to ignore facts, though I give you guys an 'A' for effort.

Total Non-Farm Employment Under Bush
Jan'01 = 130.433 M
Oct'08 = 137.656 M
Increase = 7.223 M or 77 K per month (93 mos in office)

Total Non-Farm Employment Under Clinton
Jan'93 = 108.021 M
Jan'01 = 130.433 M
Increase = 22.412 M or 233 K per month (96 mos in office)
