The first 4-5 years following the Bush tax cuts sure beat the hell out of the past 19 months of over 9% unemployment.

Do you guys really think raising taxes when unemployment is at or near 10% is a good idea? Or do you want to wreck the economy?

You people want to have it both ways.

When we are losing jobs under Obama, after wasting a trillion dollars that would supposedly solve the problem, It is just 'jobs saved' instead.of jobs created.

But when a lousy economy, brought on by liberal mismanagement, fails to produce sufficient job growth for the last 1.5 hrs under Bush, We don't count the jobs his tax policy saved.

You bastards are two faced anyway you look at it.

Al, > ZERO net job growth for the decade.

Measuring from the top of one of the biggest bubbles to the bottom of one of the worst recessions in recent history.

You'll do anything to avoid having to defend yourself ...

Don't you think unemployment rates are more important than job growth? If jobs didn't grow, but unemployment was low, whats the big problem? But when the unemployment rate goes up, people are sitting home without jobs:



I have to tell you those early years were a lot better than now, regardless of how you're saying they were so bad.
