You do know that we lost 2.2 million jobs in Bush's last three months, right?You do know that under Bush the unemployment rate was more than 6.1% only for 4 months and it is only now,
after 65 months, that Obama got it down to 6.1%, right?
You also know that we lost 2.2 million jobs in Obama's first three months, which dishonest GOPs try to pin on Obama's long-range record, right?
And you know the unemployment rate topped at 10.4% from Bush's recession during Obama, right?
Therefore, you surely know that comparing the number of months Bush was over 6.1% is a bogus stat, right?
Comparing Bush's numbers to Obama's is like saying:
After Nixon's first day in office, Nixon was responsible for the Americans killed in Vietnam on that first day .
