67K New Priv Sec Jobs, -121K Gov Jobs!

Doesn't the President get any credit when something good happens or is starting to happen?

Oh, I know-- only if the President is a REPUBLICAN!

Ok, now I understand!

George Bush at one point had 52 consecutive months in a row with job increases.

Obama can't seem to perform.

Private sector growth slowed from in July, dropping from an adjusted gain of 107,000 to 67,000, while the government terminated 131,000 jobs:

June and July numbers had to be adjusted downward. That means they were much worse than reported earlier.

It takes 250,000 jobs increase each month to remain equal with growth in the workforce.

Please don't read into this statement here, but was this thread started because it is a Republican-vs-Democrat thing? I am not prejudice against any religion/race/political party. I think we all have our issues. My issues of dislike with the current President has NOTHING to do with race or religion. I just think his governing is weak. He has time left to prove me wrong...maybe he will.

IF she said that, then it was a blatant lie.

Where's the proof of her saying it?


As for SOldiers coming back, the President has spoken on several occasions about ensuring that Servicemembers have jobs once done with their MSO's.

He has streamlined the process for qualified Vets to apply for government positions-- eliminating the KSA's requirement and the bureaucracy surrounding that bad policy.

You can't compare the economy under GWB to the economy now!

We're on the way out of a recession, a near depression even!

Many will argue that it was the excesses of that time period prior to today's bad times that contributed to the economy we have today (but you would just dismiss them as liberal, ill-informed and biased.)

Nevertheless, in THIS CASE, the burden here is to define what SHE meant by, "ALMOST immediately."

Maybe she was throwing a Christian referrence.

A day with the Lord is as a thousand years, right?


Bottom line, she did not say or imply, immediately.
