oh puleeze

First of all, the unemployment rate now is the SAME or less as it was when Clinton ran for re-election in '96 - so don't go all cocky saying growth is bad.

Second of all, there has ALWAYS been some sort of offshoring going on during some administration or another (chips, cars, clothes, etc.).

Third of all, ONE bad month out of many GOOD months does NOT negate the fact Bush has created over 1.6 MILLION jobs since August 2003. Talk about tossing out the baby with the bath water. So, it's not harping if you step back and take a look at the BIG picture.

Fourth - unlike ANY former Democrat president, the Bush economy has been one of steady growth after a Democrat-created recession (1999). You talk of Democrats but you have to remember the Boom or Bust days of Clinton. Which who is you need to blame for the loss of those 3 million jobs to BEGIN with. Bush has created a STABLE economy that won't lead to a recession. As many people are employed NOW as they were under Clinton - more importantly, unlike how the Dems would LIKE you to believe, the job growth is NOT in fast food or in lower paying wages. According to the Department of Labor, wages are UP over 4% across the board.

Troll someplace else.
