Yes, but it is just a summary after the fact. It doesn't tell where the unemployment numbers came from - when those jobs were lost. How many jobs were lost in what years.

In fact, lets compare the numbers of jobs lost during 2001 to 2008, and the numbers of jobs lost from 2008 to present.

I'm sure Wing will post that. I'll wait

And are we supposed to believe CBO figures now? Because when I posted CBO figures about the deficit, people here said they could not be believed.
