As I said, you are free to dislike this president, but your repeated, ridiculous denial of things that have actually happened is ... scary.

During the first three years of Obama’s term, his economic performance can be summarized as follows: RBNRFI: -6.6%; RGDP: 1.2%; total employment: -1.8%.

Yes. Those are figures. So? What is your point in posting it?

Wow.
You do not understand numbers in anyway huh? Perhaps I could make a graph and then turn it sideways so it looks right, like those monkeys in that TV ad.

Despite what you want to think, "creating" hundreds of thousands of jobs when more than those being created are required to break even is a net loss. You can understand that right?
Wagering $25 and receiving $20 after the race is not a win, you know that right? You didn't win $20, you lost $5.

Yes. But those that say Obama didn't create "any" jobs are factually wrong. He created, in fact, hundreds of thousands of jobs. Obama's policies did, in fact, create jobs, and are still creating jobs.

Considering 800,000 jobs were lost in one month before Obama took office, making most of those up is a start in the right direction. Do we need more? Of course. Bush wrecked our economy. It's not going to go away when the political party that wrecked the economy have fought against everything needed to help it recover.

If you think over a million jobs can be made up in three years, when the recession wasn't even turned around until Obama got a hold of it, you're crazy.

I'd kill to get back 20 from a 25 bet...any time i cash a ticket, that's a winner..

I'll try again: You posted numbers. Why did you post the numbers? What was the point you were trying to make, that the numbers are supposed to support?

They represent the actual view of your very rosey GDP and job creation.

Pointless.
