It's about jobs, dude!

Over the last 15 years, when those black-hearted, evil, Neanderthal Republicans had control of the Congress (10 years), 22.9 million jobs were created, or an average of 2.29 million per year. When the progressive and empathetic Democrats had control or control was split, 8.7 million jobs were lost, or an average of 1.7 million per year.

And our current leadership is really working hard for you. According to Vice-President Biden: "We'll never regain those 8 million jobs lost."

Changes in number of jobs:
  • In last six months (Nov. 2009 to May 2010): +873,000 (which includes 390,000 census workers)
  • In Bush's eight years (Jan. 2001 to Jan. 2009): +1,080,000
  • In Obama's 17 months: -2,979,000
  • When Republicans controlled House and Senate, Jan. 95 to Jan. 2001: +16,107,000
  • When Congress/Senate were split, Jan. 01 to Jan. 03: -2,203,000
  • When Republicans controlled House and Senate, Jan. 03 to Jan. 07: +6,801,000 
  • When Democrats controlled House and Senate, Jan. 07 to present (May): -6,497,000
  • Since December 2007 (peak): -7,381,000
Kind of hard to ignore the raw data, isn't it?

Please don't vote for Democrats.

I removed the above post because of offensive language from the famguytoday.blogspot.com

He obviously didn't get the memo on use of profanity or personal attacks.
