Surprise! Obama Is Creating More New Jobs Than George W. Bush

[thereisnospoon]

Your graph is crap as are you.

Of course YOU would believe it is crap because it blasts the lib's false narrative.

The graph is a fraud.

Explain how it is a fraud.
You don't get to come here and make a drive by post and not expect to get called on it.
Now, your explanation please...
Explain and support the explanation or be silent.

Jobs grow with population.

What the OP's meme fails to show is that Obama's economy fails pathetically to keep job growth at the pace of population growth. This is because he hates business, and the feeling is quite mutual.

Bullshit -- the reason for anemic job growth is the first depression since 30s. The depression that was handed to Obama by GWB.

Another reason is obstructionism by GOP, which blocked the Jobs Act and any other measure to stimulate the economy.

Sure..
Hey shit for brains, there were a grand total of TWO quarters of negative economic growth.
Now, the Obama economy over the last 12 quarters have seen growth although anemic.
The Bush excuse is no longer valid and will not be accepted any longer.
Newsflash. Government spending CANNOT and has NEVER increased private sector growth.
Obama got his nearly one trillion dollars in Job Growth Stimulus money. It DID NOT work.
"Just one more chance" is no way to govern. Of course you libtards will keep repeating the same failures over and again with the expectation of a different result. You people don't give a shit because it isn't your money that's being thrown down a rat hole.

Surprise! Obama Is Creating More New Jobs Than George W. Bush - Yahoo! News

Even President Barack Obama acknowledges that the economy is creating jobs too slowly under his stewardship. Yet Obama can now boast that more jobs have been created during his first term than during that of his predecessor George W. Bush.

Kind of hard to create jobs when virtually everyone is already working. Unemployment was at 5% under Bush and the Repubs.

After Dems took over the government, unemployment soared and has never recovered.

Carry on, dipshit.

Inherited from Clinton and look what Bush and the Republicans did... they fucked the economy majorly by the end of their run.

More lib crape talking points.
Do us all a favor. Stop posting your opinion and go get some facts.

Hey, it happened under the DNC Congress, when they threw out the Republican Budget, and substituted it with their own. That, the Housing Manipulations, The Gas Price Manipulations, sealed the deal. You want Big Government spending, You got it. What exactly do you think shares in the booty of big government spending? Why does GE back Obama? Microsoft? Apple? The Finance Industry? Have you looked at the interest level on your Credit Cards? Who determines that? How are your Savings interest doing? Who controls that? Why the discrepancy? Who is Government protecting again? To what end? Does it even include us? I don't think so.

For all the rubbish you have written, you've managed to ask an interesting question about the credit cards. And I can help you with that

Answering your first question -- I never looked at the interest my credit cards charge because I never pay any interest on my credit cards. I know it is high, and I know why.

See, the credit card companies know that only financially illiterate people regularly carry a balance. Hence, they also carry a high risk of defaulting on their obligations. So the high interest on credit cards is little more than a risk premium for sub-prime borrowers.

And this has what to do with what?
Jobs? How so?

Surprise! Obama Is Creating More New Jobs Than George W. Bush - Yahoo! News

Even President Barack Obama acknowledges that the economy is creating jobs too slowly under his stewardship. Yet Obama can now boast that more jobs have been created during his first term than during that of his predecessor George W. Bush.

When Bush began his first term in January 2001, total nonfarm employment was 132.47 million. When his second term began four years later, it was 132.45 million, or effectively zero job growth.

Obama's first term isn't technically over yet, but so far, employment has risen from 133.56 million in January 2009 to 134.02 million in the latest report, for December 2012. That's a net gain of about 460,000 or 0.3 percent. As paltry as that is, it beats Bush's first-term performance...

Yup, im sure those guy's delivering Pizza's and working Burger King part time just love there jobs to death. Hell, this last holly day season proves it with all the money that got spent.

Stronger income doesn't boost holiday spending - Jan. 30, 2012

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Consumers got a bigger boost to their paychecks at the end of last year, but they kept their wallets closed during the holiday shopping season, according to the government's latest readings.

Consumers are SOOO, confident and optimistic about 2013.

&$(#$)#! -- the reason for anemic job growth is the first depression since 30s. The depression that was handed to Obama by GWB.

Another reason is obstructionism by GOP, which blocked the Jobs Act and any other measure to stimulate the economy.

But Bush's economic policies did not cause the 2008-2009 recession. The root cause of the recession was misguided federal intervention in the housing market and federal mishandling of interest rates and the money supply.

From 2000 to 2007, Freddie and Fannie secured or funded over $1 trillion in subprime loans, most of which went to people whose credit would not have qualified them for home ownership in previous years. Those unsound loans were then bundled into the toxic assets that caused the financial crisis, which in turn caused the recession.

Before the federal government began applying pressure on lending institutions to make more subprime loans, such loans were barely 1% of new loans, but by 2007 they were 20% of new loans.

Bush and the Republicans tried 5 times--yes, 5 times--to impose sane regulations on Freddie and Fannie to stop them from their reckless course, but each time Democrats played the race card and the class-warfare card and accused Republicans of trying to keep poor people and minorities from owning homes. You can watch some of those Congressional debates on YouTube, if you have any doubts about this.

As for GOP "obstruction" in blocking the second stimulus bill, the so-called "Jobs Act," good gravy, what about the fact that the first stimulus bill clearly failed? Why would we want to waste more money on failed "stimulus" measures when the first round of "stimulus" spending proved to be a huge waste of money?

The first stimulus bill was rammed through with the excuse that it was desperately needed to keep unemployment from going over 8%. We all know what happened to the unemployment rate after the first stimulus was passed: it went up, not down, and it has stayed near 8% ever since (last month it stood at 7.8%).

The average unemployment rate for Bush's 8 years was below 6%.

Libs will never acknowledge these facts. In fact they reject them out of hand. Liberals reject any concept that does not fit the liberal template.

 

[thereisnospoon]

Cool Mikey. Bush isn't repsonsible for anything bad and Obama is responsible for everything bad.

That what you are saying?

ANother dyed in the wool liberal uses the all or nothing straw man argument.
It won't wash.
Bush could never be accused of conservatism. In fact he ran his first campaign on stealing democrat issues. Bush spent heavily on social policy. And the democrats went along with it. Then as the high spending policies began to show negative effects, democrats went ballistic on "Bush's deficit spending"....No sooner after the democrats regained the House and Senate majorities in 2006 Rep Barney Frank went on every news show and said "we have to get over our fear of deficits. There are a lot of rich people we can recover this money from."
Many of us republican voters objected to Bush's free spending social policies.
However, Bush spending was NOT the root cause of the financial collapse. That was caused directly by interference by government in the housing market.
Now you will respond with the tired old "It's wall street's fault" explanation. Whatever.
Liberalism's major fault is it's unwillingness to accept responsibility for it's actions.
Liberalism has but two goals. One is the acquisition of political power. Two the retention of political power.
Liberal arrogantly view political victory as a birthright.
Well now your side has it. And now your side has to live with it. Your side OWNS it.
It is stupid shit like this that slams libs against a wall.

Yes, it was inherited from the Clinton/Republican Congress. Clinton was forced to sign into law the budgets that Congress passed. He did it with gnashing teeth, but he did it.

Unfortunately no Republican controlled Congress spells disaster for our economy.

Obama is so DANM GENEROUS with OUR MONEY

 

[Clementine]

The only jobs government can create are more government jobs. Now government is bigger, the IRS will be scarier than ever. Yea, those warm hearted people we always love dealing with are now in charge of our very lives. And they have real time access to our bank accounts. Yay!!

Meanwhile, the private sector is shrinking and the cost of government is sky rocketing. What could go wrong down the road?

if it's as fxxked as you say, Bush had help from the Democrats...
damn that might burst your little bubble

 

[buckeye45_73]

The private sector creates jobs - government jobs are a drain on the private sector; economics 101!

Government jobs are far superior to most private sector jobs.

OMG you're and idiot, you dont even undstand the economy or job creation. Sure creating govt jobs for the govt is easy to do, job creation is about private sector jobs

Here's a thought, why not make all jobs govt sector jobs, think of all that tax money....oh wait.......

 

[buckeye45_73]

kid is a clown, so kid, how did Bush fuck it up? show me a 10 year period of no downturns in US history?

And then list what programs Bush did that fucked it up?

You're right. The Soviet people LOVED the "party" until it destroyed their lives.....Sent them to Gulags for "disagreeing", murdered them for dissenting, took their parents away in the middle of the night for "treason against the party".

But, nothing like that would ever happen here.......right??

Liberals - government is NOT your friend. Wake the hell up you idiots.

 

[thereisnospoon]

XXXXXXX


Now, your figures are nonsense.
If that many FULL TIME private sector jobs were added, the unemployment rate would be down to 5%.
The fact is millions of people have left the job market. That pads the U-3 numbers.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) the U-6 unemployment rate is 13.8%.
U-6 counts all eligible workers.
So you can be a 'grumpy old liberal kraut' all you like. You can spew your abject hatred towards all people and ideas non-liberal. It doesn't change the facts.

New study concludes that the Community Reinvestment Act ‘clearly’ did lead to risky lending
James Pethokoukis | December 12, 2012, 9:50 am
"Our empirical strategy compares lending behavior of banks undergoing CRA exams within a given census tract in a given month to the behavior of banks operating in the same census tract-month that do not face these exams.
We find that adherence to the act led to riskier lending by banks:
in the six quarters surrounding the CRA exams lending is elevated on average by about 5 percent every quarter and loans in these quarters default by about 15 percent more often. These patterns are accentuated in CRA-eligible census tracts and are concentrated among large banks.
The effects are strongest during the time period when the market for private securitization was booming. …
[URL="http://www.aei-ideas.org/2012/12/new-study-finds-concludes-that-the-community-reinvestment-act-clearly-did-lead-to-risky-lending/

NOW idiot to put it into simple words you can understand!!
The above experts studied loans made under CRA duress and loans NOT under CRA.
They found lending INCREASED under CRA pressure and the loans made under CRA pressured defaulted 15% MORE then loans not under CRA pressure!

NOW for an even more fundamental lesson!
BANKS have FDIC insurance I am sure you know!
What do you think the FDIC auditors said when they saw these CRA forced loans? Did the examiners not consider them when penalizing the banks that made them?
Of course they did! So the banks complained and guess who came to the rescue??? FANNIE/FREDDIE! And so we have the Bush administration
LAUGHED AT BY Democrats Frank and Dodd after 17 times trying to get Fannie/Freddie fixed!

"Over the past six years, the President and his Administration have not only warned of the systemic consequences of failure to reform GSEs but also put forward thoughtful plans to reduce the risk that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would encounter such difficulties. President Bush publicly called for GSE reform at least 17 times in 2008 alone before Congress acted. Unfortunately, these warnings went unheeded, as the President's repeated attempts to reform the supervision of these entities were thwarted by the legislative maneuvering of those who emphatically denied there were problems. Many prominent Democrats, including House Finance Chairman Barney Frank, opposed any legislation correcting the risks posed by GSEs.

* House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA) criticized
the President's warning saying:
"these two entities - Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - are not facing any kind of financial crisis .The more people exaggerate these problems,
the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."..
(Stephen Labaton, "New Agency Proposed To Oversee Freddie Mac And Fannie
Mae," New York Times, 9/11/03)

* Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Chairman Christopher Dodd also ignored the President's warnings and called on him to "immediately reconsider his ill-advised" position. (Eric Dash, "Fannie Mae's Offer To Help Ease Credit Squeeze Is Rejected, As Critics Complain Of Opportunism," New York Times, 8/11/07)
