hi clo,
yes. but to be fair to the dawg, he produced a number! that's a start. and being the person of warmth and compassion that y'all know me to be, I'm going to help him along with another one.
here it is! more than 50% of all the job losses under obama occurred in the first 3 months of his presidency. that is, before his stimulus policy went into effect. 50 per cent. more than half. under. the. policies. of. the. previous. president.
so for me, the explanation of the dawg's number has a name. that name is gwb.
thereafter, there's a clear recovery pattern.
so, any vaguely sentient being would surely say the successful policies were the ones that created the recovery.
but this kind of statistic produced by wavy is why the gop is in trouble. it's that same old torture thing. look the numbers square in the face and the story is obvious.
but try really hard and you can find a form of presentation that sounds bad. until you actually check the record. the chart makes it all very clear.
and of course, this is why the partisans don't comment when the simple story is presented. how do you argue against the actual numbers?
7.8%! awesome.
that one job is not vacant.
