Is this just more Democrat propaganda, NOBBY? You'd think they'd have
mentioned a big number like this if it had any basis in fact, especially
if the economy gained more than 1 3/4 million jobs per month last
November & December.

The economy gained almost 3 million new jobs in the last 23 months.


But they said (and the BLS agrees) that as of Aug 2004, the Bush
Presidency had a net loss of jobs.


That was 9 months ago. Today, we have a net gain of jobs.




Hmm, who to believe, NOBBY or the econ pros? What a tough call.


Believe the *CURRENT* BLS statistics.




At the time of the election, the October numbers weren't out yet either.
The net gain/loss when the election took place was roughly even.
However, in the last 8 months (Oct. 2004-May 2005) the economy added
approximately 900,000 new jobs. That's why we stand at a net gain of
900,000 new jobs since Bush took office in 2001.


Shucks, that's barely 100,000 jobs per month. The Clinton economy added
well over 200,000 per month. What gives, NOBBY, is the economy booming or
isn't it?


3.466 million jobs gained in 23 months is an average of 150,000+ jobs each
month.







No wonder you guys all think President Bush has done such a GREAT job on
the economy... 1.75 million jobs per month! WOW!



You obviously don't understand the concept of *net* gains/losses.


You obviously don't understand any concept at all. All you do is parrot
the yay-Bush propaganda, and then look for facts later. Let's see, how
many times has NOBBY contradicted himself in this thread?



None.

Is it a new record?


No. I never contradict myself. It's par for the course.
