No, it's a slow recovery but it is a recovery.Oh its a grand recovery.
Ask anyone without a job just how grand it is.
Sad for you.

Sad many conservatives wish to see Americans continue to suffer for some perceived partisan gain.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Thursday released an early look at its annual benchmark revision of its payroll data. When the preliminary revisions become final early next year, the official data should show that 386,000 more Americans were working in March than previously believed. The private sector did even better, adding 453,000 jobs versus previous estimates.
Barclays Capital has noted that the revisions tend to follow the broader cyclical patterns of the economy that is, when the job market is improving, the revisions tend to be positive, and when the economy is getting worse, the revisions tend to be negative. Back in 2009 and 2010, the BLS revisions erased nearly 1.3 million jobs, making an already brutal recession look even worse. The upward revision this year supports other data that suggest the job market is improving, albeit slowly.
There was one symbolic significance to the revision: If the preliminary figures hold, they would suggest that more Americans are now working than when President Obama took office. That doesnt mean much for the broader economy there are still more than 4 million fewer Americans working today than before the recession began but it could carry political weight heading into the November presidential election.

Now subtract the population growth and number of jobs lost. Hey look Obama isn't helping a higher percentage of americans get employment than when he took office. Its actually a lower percentage of americans working today.
We are doing a little better than we were when obama took over, I'm not denying that, but we are no where near doing as well as we need to be to keep up with population growth and job loss.
you're right... but it's kind of hard to create jobs when you have government cutting a job for every job created in the private sector...
Stock market is up, too.

if it wasn't, the obama-deranged would be whining about it 24/7

Slow?? WOW if it were any slower it would be going backwards.
I wish everyone in this country had a job. I wish the economy were doing great.
If that were the case I'd be on Barry's bandwagon big time.
It aint' so I ain't.
Despite what you think the guy is clueless. He has no idea how to get the economy up and rolling. If he had an idea how to fix things I'm pretty sure he would have fixed em by now. After all he did say if he couldn't do it in one term then he didn't deserve another.
Works for me.
So sad for you.

government jobs arent real jobs....if that's the case lets just hire everyone, but that would be an issue....[/QUOTE]
Shut the fuk up. When the guvmint orders those new airplanes, helicopters, tanks and all the rest of the stuff needed for the military, you are going to say........"guvmint jobs arent real jobs". Really? Stfu.

How fast should the recovery have taken? In your opinion.
