Office of the Speaker? Really?
Yes, let's compare the last 2 months of Bush's tenure at the beginning of the meltdown with all of Obama's presidency.
The average UE rate under Bush was about 5%. What has been under Obama? And job loss was worse during the 2000 recession, but job creation was much better. That's why under the 2000 recession the UE rate didnt get above 6%, although that didnt stop the lib-tards from screaming about a jobless recovery.
