Why yes they have, too bad too many people don't understand this very simple concept.
When you have people on welfare who never have been in their whole life, and on food stamps. doesn't mean there are ample jobs out there for everyone. Hard working people don't beleive in sitting on their butt's they much rather be working believe me.
Can't work if for real, the jobs are not out there.
When will people realize that borrowing money from China or taking it out of the private economy in order to pad bloated state payrolls or build bridges to nowhere or puff up unsustainable public employee benefits or give to to "green" cronies is a deadweight loss to the economy? Republicans have effectively blocked some of Obama's jobs-destruction agenda. Too bad the EPA, the NLRB and other agencies are beyond the reach of congressional Republicans, or their part in the job destruction could also be stopped.
Let's see now ... During the 8 years preceding his election as the first BLACK U.S. President ... the Republican President ... "W" Bush ... borrowed billions from China. And if I'm recalling the situation accurately ... Alaska Republican Gov. Sarah Palin and Republican Senator Ted Stevens pushed hard and secured funding for the "Bridge to Nowhere." And hasn't it been the GOP in the U.S. Congress which has blocked job creation measures because doing so honors their pledge to damage this nation so bad, undermine our national security so severely ... that people would blame President Obama for their un-American activities? Whatever it is you're peddling, take it elsewhere. That dog doesn't hunt here.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a nonpartisan federal agency, originally projected that 11 million jobs will be created during the four-year period after the election in January. A revised projection has been made to support 9.6 million jobs after the election. A more optimistic report from Moody’s Analytics predicts 12 million jobs, and Macroeconomic Advisors raises that to 12.3 million jobs by 2016.Source
Interesting
Yepperz, 43 months-in-a-row with over 8% unemployment, those were a fluke, cuz 0bama will create a job explosion in the next four years. He would have created that economic jobs power house over the past four years, but he want to hold off on it until his second term.
It is IMPOSSIBLE for Obama to create an economic atmosphere which would allow such an explosion of new jobs to be created without being ripped to shreds by ALL of his constituencies, including environmentalists and civil service unions, the two biggest roadblocks to the creation of hundreds of thousands of 'shovel-ready' jobs.
Romney has no such obstacles in his way, and certainly won't if he wins the election.

Looks like the President is already ahead of schedule.
Are you upset Romney is claiming the President's statistic?

12 Million is a job explosion?
What makes you think the Administration won't meet the projection? Under the current Law the estimate is for 12 Million.
Romney claim supports the President's CURRENT policies....lol
More like turn full-time workers into part time workers in droves.
The UE rate will drop and the employment rate will increase temporarily (until the abomination crashes the economy) as they move from 34.5 hours a week to 29.5 and more people will be hired as part-timers.
Example:
Quote:
According to the Orlando Sentinel, Darden Restaurants, Inc., operator of casual dining chains such as Olive Garden, Red Lobster, and LongHorn Steakhouse, is doing just that. ObamaCare requires companies to provide “affordable” health insurance to employees working at least 30 hours per week or pay fines of up to $3,000 per employee who instead obtains taxpayer-subsidized insurance on a state exchange. Darden, therefore, is experimenting with limiting most of its employees to 28 hours per week, thus freeing it from the mandate and its accompanying fine.
Moody's Analytics, in an August forecast, predicts 12 million jobs will be created by 2016, no matter who is president.
Thats correct. Economies are like rubber bands, they have a harsh swing one way, then a harsh swing the other, if its a mild swing one way, then its a mild swing the other..
Governments have very little to do with an economic business cycles which has been taking place for hundreds if not thousands of years..
