Click on total non-farm and total private employment (first two selections) and then hit retrieve data
133.549 mil when he took over 130.201 mil now.
Keep in mind 4.392 million jobs were lost during Bush's last 12 months in office, almost 1/2 of which (2.18 million) during the last three months alone.

It would have been worse if AIG and GM were not bailed out by the Republicans...
Obama will have to create 3.3 million jobs in the private sector to have the same number of people employed as the month he took office. If he has 8 years total to do this he'll have to create more than 44,000/month. Every month that these numbers decrease the required number of jobs to break even will increase. This doesn't account for population growth and new workers in to the work force.
About 100,000 jobs a month to make a small dent in the UE rate.

...and what solution would the Republicans have for this problem?...
The latest Gallup Dailly Tracking Poll shows a record drop of 8 points in the approval minus disaproval net number. From a 46-46 tie yesterday, the numbers went to 42-50 against, 8 points. This is a three-day average of daily numbers, so one can only imagine what the latest day's data showed.
Obama and the Dems are in huge trouble. The more he talks, the less we like him.
The anti-prosperity agenda just may get smoked on November 2nd--good news for all, even if 40% of us won't understand it that way.
