... to completely clean up the Bush mess in two years!
Your glorious Dems were making the bank laws giving no look loans to everyone, that wasn't a Bush deal.
He addressed that he saw a problem with that, then 9-11 hit us and he went into war mode.
Congress kept screwing up the banks, and you know the rest.
Over 20 million private sector jobs were created under the Bush Administration.
Private Sector Employment, Jan 2001: 111.634 million
Private Sector Employment, Jan 2005: 110.718 million
Private Sector Employment, Jan 2009: 110.981 million
Private Sector jobs added during Bush's first term (2001-2005): -0.916 million
Private Sector jobs added during Bush's second term (2005-2009): +0.263 million
Total Private Sector Jobs added under Bush Administration (Jan 2001-Jan 2009): -0.653
More people were employed in private sector in Jan 2001, than were at the end of Bush's second term. Lie somewhere else.
Limbaugh math. Good to see you're one of those who it was devised for.
So the math is wrong? Thats odd because I relied on my handy pc calculator.. Good though to see you get your "Limbaugh" dig in, trying to distract from the posting..
oooh you went to one of those special schools, where they teach "special" math.. Please share the accurate answer then and contribute, I'll be waiting..

And you have the nerve to talk about "limbaugh" math.. oooh the humor.. I'd put you on ignore, but then I wouldnt get my daily dose of comedy channel..
From February 2009, the month the stimulus bill passed, to the end of 2010, payrolls declined by 3.3 million and unemployment rose by 2%. The only private sector fields that gained jobs at an average or above average pace were counter-cyclical categories such as healthcare, education, fast food, and retail trade. In fact, minimum wage jobs are (and were) going through a quasi mini boom.
1- Do you believe the job losses started as a result of stimulus? I do.
2- Do you think that jobs losses were a result of the recession? I do.
3- Do you believe that job growth/loss is a trailing indicator? I do.
4- Do you believe that any stimulus will show effects immediately? I don't.
The last recession officially ended in June 2009. It has been 22 months since. Likewise, 2001 recession officially ended in Nov 2001. Let us see jobs added to private sector over a span of 22 months following the two recessions:
Nov 2001: 109.575 million
Sep 2003: 108.421 million
Private Sector Jobs gained: -1.154 million
Jun 2009: 107.936 million
Apr 2011: 108.862 million
Private Sector Jobs gained: +0.926 million
Which of the two recoveries do you consider to be better? Please explain.

Math is not wrong. It would be hard to blame the calculator for that one. I was wrong. I should have said... Limbaugh Logic instead.
