The country didn't lose 500,000 to 800,000 per month throughout 2008 which is what you are trying to indicate

Unemployment by month 2008

2008 7628 7435 7793 7631 8397 8560 8895 9509 9569 10172 10617 11400
You're lying again, Conservative. I knew you wish I would stop pointing out your lies, but it's going to require your participation. All you have to do to shut me up is to stop lying.

Look at what you falsely claimed I "tried to indicate" -- then compare it with what I actually wrote:


"By the way, how many months do you think think country can sustain losing 500,000 to 800,000 payroll jobs per month? Wait, before you answer, here's a clue since that is what happened for 9 months between October, 2008 and June, 2009 ... 6 million payroll jobs were lost and the unemployment rate skyrocketed 44% from 6.6% to 9.5%."


I can only hope you're capable of comprehending that saying, "between October, 2008 and June, 2009," in no way, shape, or form indicates "throughout 2008."

I also hope you realize that you lose the argument the moment you lie as it completely undermines your position.

Yeah, you keep wondering that. Meanwhile, Bachman has made more idiotic gaffs in three weeks than Obama has made in three years. :lol:
Almost kinda makes you want Obama to make more gaffes so they can finally get some fresh ammunition. It really sucks for them that the pickin's are so slim, they still have to pull out the "57 state" gaffe.

C'mon, Obama, throw 'em a bone, will ya?

As Barrack Obama was President during most of that period, shouldn't he take some responsibility for all those lost jobs.

And in October 2008, when it was a choice between Barrack Obama and Hillary Clinton, I can understand why employers were getting a little skittish.
 
Oh, I see Obama polls are meaningless but polls showing potential candidates vs. Obama and of course Bush ratings are accurate and meaningful.
You've got the wrong person, I've said match up now are pretty much meaningless. JAR's don't measure if a person will vote for them. Liberals are likely to give Obama a bad JAR because he hasn't lived up to their expectations. You should read the article I posted, Both people have vast experience in public polling. David Moore was a V.P. and senior editor for the Gallup Organization.

A choice between Clinton and Obama in October 2008? :cuckoo:

I don't see why? That period was Bush's great recession. Why would Obama be responsible for jobs lost due to a recession Bush left for him?
 
Seriously? You think Obama suggesting to automakers that people are going to prefer smaller gas-efficient vehicles amid rising gas prices is a gaffe?? Damn, you're even more desperate for Obama gaffes than I thought.

:lamo

Please, Obama, give these poor desperate folks something they can really celebrate over!
:lol:

Love it, you judge Bush for what he did between October 2008 and June 2009 but cannot judge Obama on what he did 2 1/2 years after taking office? Brilliant. By the way guess those shovel ready jobs that passed in February 2009 weren't so shovel ready after all.

Wonder if this has any affect on his job approval rating. Guess liberals would call this leadership and good judgment

General Electric is planning to move its 115-year-old X-ray division from Waukesha, Wis., to Beijing. In addition to moving the headquarters, the company will invest $2 billion in China and train more than 65 engineers and create six research centers. This is the same GE that made $5.1 billion in the United States last year. but paid no taxes-the same company that employs more people overseas than it does in the united States.

So let me get this straight. President Obama appointed GE Chairman Jeff Immelt to head his commission on job creation (job czar). Immelt is supposed to help create jobs. I guess the President forgot to tell him in which country he was supposed to be creating those jobs.
If this doesn't show you the total lack of leadership of this President, I don't know what does.

Republicans can do better than that. The leading Republican candidate, Mitt Romney, made his fortune offshoring jobs and slashing payrolls. He sure does know a thing or two about jobs: eliminating them!

And Obama made his fortune by selling a book. I don't know why anyone would support Obama and you have yet to explain your support. All I see you doing is bashing Republicans. What is it about Obama that puts you into the 39% that continue to support an incompetent Obama?

I am going to give you one more chance to actually respond to the question, what does this have to do with the current poll numbers

New Approval Ratings Prove Obama Is The GOP’s Worst Nightmare

March 30, 2011
By Jason Easley

Republican Party Approval Rating at End-of-Bush-Era Low -- Daily Intel

The rightwingers don't want to talk about their candidates because they know how weak the republican field is with all it's teabagging nutcases. They know that Obama has far more appeal to the american voter. That's why the rightwingers tactic is to constantly attack Obama because there's no way to make their own candidates look good. They're trying to bring Obama down in the gutter where the repugs are right now because they know their candidates have limited appeal

You can put lipstick on a pig, but still, no one is going to want to kiss it

As I recall Democrats controlled both houses of Congress in 2008 as well.
Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup

Ok, so you're on record for believing that losing 800,000 payroll jobs in a single month where the unemployment rate is 7.8% is better than gaining 117,000 payroll jobs in a month where the unemployment rate is 9.1%. By the way, how many months do you think think country can sustain losing 500,000 to 800,000 payroll jobs per month? Wait, before you answer, here's a clue since that is what happened for 9 months between October, 2008 and June, 2009 ... 6 million payroll jobs were lost and the unemployment rate skyrocketed 44% from 6.6% to 9.5%.

The repubs #'s are worse than Obamas'

Meanwhile, he still leads each and every republican contender AND a generic republican contender in polls. I guess he didn't anticipate how pathetic the opposition would be.

That's why don't see any of the rightwingers talking about the repub candidates. They know how much the american voter detests their teabagging extremists, so now they're relentlessly attacking Obama with their lies in the hopes that they can drag Obama down to the gutter where the nutcase theocrats in the repub party live

Yes, it was all Obama in October. No wonder they were skittish.

Right! The employers were calm as 6 MILLION JOBS disappeared and the economy crashed, but the idea of a new president really scared the bejeezus out of them :cuckoo:

It's a pity that you can't argue what I do say because you can't translate English-to-Conservative, so you end up arguing what you think I say. I never said Obama can't be judged on what he does now.

By the way guess those shovel ready jobs that passed in February 2009 weren't so shovel ready after all.
According to you, he saved and created 3½ million jobs.

Your defense of Obama by using the Bush argument is indefensible. According to BLS there are fewer jobs today than when Obama took office so seems that the Obama economic plan is to eliminate enough jobs to make the unemployment numbers look great. Keep defending Obama. Guess when Obama said he was going to focus on jobs he really meant in China. Great job, your vote gave us this incompetent President.

You think because GE's CEO is on a board Obama commissioned, their company should pass on opportunities to do business overseas?
