Are you seriously arguing that most businesses would gladly create a job even if it meant their profit margins would suffer? Not very likely.

Progressive policies caused the crash of 2008.

But it's popular to say "It was Bush's fault!" to ignorant, unprincipled people.

Liberals don't seem to be impressed.

She was.. Even though I supported neither, I think Hillary would have reached across the aisle rather than pass everything she wanted and then blamed everyone else for its failure.

I think that saying is getting worn out quickly and most people who were around during that period, are getting tired of hearing its lies..

You have no idea of the facts, you're just spewing false information. Read and learn, you might decide you'd be better off being a republican.

That is incorrect. Very few jobs were created under GWB. There was a real estate boom, then bubble, then crash.

You cant create jobs when there arent enough people to work.. We had near complete employment under Bush

note the difference between that, and Obamas policies..

btw, its really dumb to calculate the growth in population and then cite that against the jobs, unless of course you want 3 year olds to have jobs.. (do you realize he's counting the growth of CHILDREN?)

Hillary is an incredibly dull public speaker, with a voice as pleasing as nails on a chalkboard.

What she said is incredibly dumb, but then again, like everything else she says, I doubt she believes it.

Perhaps you can cite some numbers to back up the claim of the great economy under GWB? I cannot find anything that reinforces that belief.

"Moreover, the economy’s performance between 2001 and 2007 was weaker, overall, than its performance in the equivalent years of the 1990s, years following significant tax increases. GDP growth was somewhat weaker than in the 1990s, and job creation, investment, and wage and salary growth all were substantially weaker."

So who do you think creates jobs? Government? Not everyone can be a government parasite, someone has to pay the bills.

Businesses CONSTANTLY take a hit to profit margins to create jobs, it's called GROWTH and INVESTMENT so their profit margins will be greater in the future. Do you think Amazon got to 100,000 employees without ever taking a hit to their profit margin? Only a "you didn't build that" government leech would think so.
