Clinton Created More Jobs than Reagan + Bush1 + Bush2 COMBINED!

[billyerock1991]

Actually, Clinton didn't create a one. No president does. They simply stay out of the way.

The IT expansion during his term had nothing to do with him.

actually the raising of taxes by the clinton admistration cause a huge job increase ... I remember old gingrich going crazy thats the reason the national budget balanced

I miss Reagan....

But, but, but,,, we must subsidize the rich, because repubtards believe they are job creaters & they need super rich people to look up to, lead them & lie to them.

How poor is the person who employs you?

You & your ilk are absolute retards! Y'all actually believe rich people create jobs. LOL!!!

The Big Business, Wallstreet, CEO's, & Rich masters you worship eliminate, export & destroy jobs.

Poor, middle class & small business create the jobs!

A homeless person created the biggest company on the planet!

Steve Jobs said, “I didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.”

Steve Wozniak had proposed his idea for the Apple I computer to Hewlett Packard, but they "turned him down 5 times." Regarding the missed opportunity, HP co-founder Bill Hewlett reportedly said, "You win some, you lose some."

In most cases the Rich, CEO & Corporate Execs are the retards who passed on job creation proposed by the poor & middle class workers. They spend most of their time & energy screwing others to max their profits & very little creating better products or jobs. This is why Steve Wozniak screams that Rich, CEO & Corporate Execs should be taxed over 50%. The workers should be subsidized instead of paying inflation tax, sales tax, payroll taxes on top of income taxes that all makes it cost to much to employ workers here in the USA.

Republicans always cause massive job loss & economic harm! In the entire history of our country, there's never been a Republican president who hasn't had a job killing recession or two while he served. Recessions almost never happen under Democrats.

 

[billyerock1991]

Government does not create jobs.

actuall they do ... when the allocate money for roads, bridges, water, things like that ... along with actual government jobs when they have a correct budget passed ... why the hell do you think the republicans keep blocking the bidget ??? cause their meanies ??? hell know... they know when a good budget is passed debt starts getting paid down ... making their trickle down plan look real bad

 

[Vigilante]

Republicans Explode Healthcare Cost. Clinton & Obama lowered it!

In 1980 my doctor only charged $2 a visit & that included the medicine. After Reagan Bush disasters it was $200 for the same.

So you believe obozocare is cheaper.....you are some kind of stupid, but then again anyone that sticks up for that Socialist/DemocRAT is a low 2 digit IQ'd fool!

Clinton Created More Jobs than Reagan + Bush1 + Bush2 COMBINED!

No question I agree.

BUT WILL YOU disagree with THESE FACTS????

I guess primarily because THESE EVENTS HAPPENED which YOU didn't even mention!
WHEN will idiots remember these events that NO OTHER President on the above list EVER EVER FACED in their presidency!
NEVER in 8 years did these events occur!
1) Recession that started with Clinton..2) Dot.com bust cost $8T..3) worst attack on USA 9/11..remember?? 4) worst hurricane SEASONS not just hurricanes!
IN Spite of these events : Average annual GDP growth over 8 years 2.9%
Obama's??? with NO EVENTS???
SIMPLY THE WORST=> Obama is First President Ever to Not See Single Year of 3% GDP Growth
SIMPLY THE WORST=> Obama is First President Ever to Not See Single Year of 3% GDP Growth

These events dramatically altered life in the USA!
Thousands of people died!
Trillions of dollars lost!
Millions of jobs gone!

AND YOU idiots NEVER EVER seem to remember that!!!
Are you aware that a recession started under Clinton and became official 3/01 ended 11/01?
Because idiots don't seem to comprehend... RECESSIONS are like large ships.. it takes miles to turn one...i.e. so does a "RECESSION"...
it doesn't just start the day NBER states... it is a slow degradation and it started under CLINTON!!!
Source: USATODAY.com - It's official: 2001 recession only lasted eight months

A Major $8 trillion market loss... (Which meant jobs, tax revenue,etc. gone!)
Are you aware that the dot.com bust occurred and cost $8 trillion in losses? Again Clinton laid claim BUT someone had to pay and it occurred during Bush's first year!
$8 trillion in market losses MEAN lost tax revenue. PLUS JOBS!!!!
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $8 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies.
More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 -
and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.
Source: The dot-com bubble: How to lose $5 trillion

The worst attacks on the USA in History.. 3,000 deaths!!! 9/11 happened REMEMBER!!
Obviously most of you are UNAWARE 9/11 cost 3,000 lives, $2 trillion in lost businesses,market values assets.
Jobs lost in New York owing to the attacks: 146,100 JUST in New York. Airlines shut down 3 days ...wall street 10 days!!!
Are you aware this happened???
Now before you idiots say "well Bush should have known"! DUMMIES... ever hear of the Gorelick Memo signed under CLINTON??
Gorelick Memo that created the wall between FBI & CIA thus no knowledge of the 9/11 bombers shared with the FBI!!! Looks especially imprudent 10 years later.
Because the memo created a barrier for U.S. intelligence agencies to share information with the FBI, one of its unintended consequences may have been to prevent the FBI from receiving the necessary intelligence to stop the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the worst in American history.
Gorelick Memo Allegedly Impeded Probe of Clinton Fundraising Scandal
1995 memo [Clinton presidency-concerned about Chinese election sales] Gorelick wrote, stated explicitly that they would “go beyond what is legally required, [to] prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that FISA is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation.” GORELICK Memo!
Jamie Gorelick’s wall barred anti-terror investigators from accessing the computer of Zacarias Moussaoui, the 20th hijacker, already in custody on an immigration violation shortly before 9/11.
At the time, an enraged FBI investigator wrote a prophetic memo to headquarters about the wall.
Whatever has happened to this — someday someone will die — and wall or not — the public will not understand why we were not more effective in throwing every resource we had at certain problems…..
especially since the biggest threat to us UBL [Usama bin Laden], is getting the most protection.
So, a year before the 9/11 attacks, a special unit in the U.S. military was aware of the presence of an al-Queda cell in Brooklyn, New York, and sought to share its information with the FBI but was stopped cold.Why?Because (as described in the April 16, 2004 Washington Times piece) “on March 4, 1995, [Jamie Gorelick, the then number 2 official in the Clinton Justice Department, sent a 4-page directive] to FBI Director Louis Freeh and Mary Jo White, the New York-based U.S. attorney investigating the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
In the memo, Ms. Gorelick ordered Mr. Freeh and Ms. White to follow information-sharing procedures
that ‘go beyond what is legally required,’ in order to avoid ‘any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance’
that the Justice Department was using Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants, instead of ordinary criminal investigative procedures, in an effort to undermine the civil liberties of terrorism suspects.”
Could 9/11 Have Been Prevented? The Gorelick Memo and What We Knew

Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

Anthrax Attacks...
The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two DemocraticU.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.

$1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history. 2,215 lives lost
The worst, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.
Rank Disaster Year Deaths Damage* $250 Billion in damages in the 8 disasters of the top 15 disasters in history!
1. Hurricane Katrina (LA/MS/AL/FL) 2005 1833 $133,800,000,000

AND TARP has PAID back plus a $68 Billion Profit you dummy!
Oh and by the way, the solution i.e. TARP? Which idiots like you and Obama criticized YET OBAMA has benefited from in this fashion.
If it weren't for TARP's payback of $688.9 billion on the $620.3 Billion outflow Obama's deficit would be even worse!

YET in spite of these gigantic cataclysmic events Bush had:
YET in SPITE of:
a) 400,000 jobs lost due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita ,
b) 2,800,000 jobs lost in alone due to 9/11,
c) 300,000 jobs lost due to dot.com busts... In spite of nearly $8 trillion in lost businesses, market values, destroyed property..
IN SPITE of that:
2002 $157.8 billion deficit.. also 9/11 occurred and tax revenues lowered for years later due to dot.com/9-11 losses against revenue.
2003 $377.6 billion deficit.. BRAND new cabinet Homeland Security, plus loans made to businesses.. again tax revenues down..affect of 9/11

Oh and by the way, the solution i.e. TARP? Which idiots like you and Obama criticized YET OBAMA has benefited from in this fashion.
If it weren't for TARP's payback of $688.9 billion on the $620.3 Billion outflow Obama's deficit would be even worse!

BEA National Economic Accounts
Average annual growth over 8 years 2.9% IN Spite of all the events AND if the housing bubble caused by the below people hadn't occurred it would have

2004 6.4%
2005 5.4%
2006 4.6%

2008 -7.7%

I don't know, which is better? A single year of 3% growth or 78 STRAIGHT MONTHS OF ECONOMIC GROWTH?

I take the 78 straight months.

Now about your other stuff, this is where the dog shits. Why? Because Republicans have had an unlimited amount of tax payer money to go after the Clintons for 30 years. With all that money and all that time, all they could find are conspiracies?

Well I have a conspiracy. That you can breathe with your head up your ass.

 

[healthmyths]

Clinton also got a blowjob. Course, we don't know what Bush got.

SO WHAT THE HELL DO THE ABOVE HAVE TO DO WITH REALITY THAT RECESSION,9/11,HURRICANES, DOT.COM BUST HAPPENED?
COME ON! Quit acting like a 7th grader!

 

[rdean]

Wow, with such a rosy view the Republicans give us, then how did Bush go from a surplus to trillions in debt even before Obama became president?

 

[healthmyths]

Clinton Created More Jobs than Reagan + Bush1 + Bush2 COMBINED!

No question I agree.

BUT WILL YOU disagree with THESE FACTS????

I guess primarily because THESE EVENTS HAPPENED which YOU didn't even mention!
WHEN will idiots remember these events that NO OTHER President on the above list EVER EVER FACED in their presidency!
NEVER in 8 years did these events occur!
1) Recession that started with Clinton..2) Dot.com bust cost $8T..3) worst attack on USA 9/11..remember?? 4) worst hurricane SEASONS not just hurricanes!
IN Spite of these events : Average annual GDP growth over 8 years 2.9%
Obama's??? with NO EVENTS???
SIMPLY THE WORST=> Obama is First President Ever to Not See Single Year of 3% GDP Growth
SIMPLY THE WORST=> Obama is First President Ever to Not See Single Year of 3% GDP Growth

These events dramatically altered life in the USA!
Thousands of people died!
Trillions of dollars lost!
Millions of jobs gone!

AND YOU idiots NEVER EVER seem to remember that!!!
Are you aware that a recession started under Clinton and became official 3/01 ended 11/01?
Because idiots don't seem to comprehend... RECESSIONS are like large ships.. it takes miles to turn one...i.e. so does a "RECESSION"...
it doesn't just start the day NBER states... it is a slow degradation and it started under CLINTON!!!
Source: USATODAY.com - It's official: 2001 recession only lasted eight months

A Major $8 trillion market loss... (Which meant jobs, tax revenue,etc. gone!)
Are you aware that the dot.com bust occurred and cost $8 trillion in losses? Again Clinton laid claim BUT someone had to pay and it occurred during Bush's first year!
$8 trillion in market losses MEAN lost tax revenue. PLUS JOBS!!!!
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $8 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies.
More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 -
and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.
Source: The dot-com bubble: How to lose $5 trillion

The worst attacks on the USA in History.. 3,000 deaths!!! 9/11 happened REMEMBER!!
Obviously most of you are UNAWARE 9/11 cost 3,000 lives, $2 trillion in lost businesses,market values assets.
Jobs lost in New York owing to the attacks: 146,100 JUST in New York. Airlines shut down 3 days ...wall street 10 days!!!
Are you aware this happened???
Now before you idiots say "well Bush should have known"! DUMMIES... ever hear of the Gorelick Memo signed under CLINTON??
Gorelick Memo that created the wall between FBI & CIA thus no knowledge of the 9/11 bombers shared with the FBI!!! Looks especially imprudent 10 years later.
Because the memo created a barrier for U.S. intelligence agencies to share information with the FBI, one of its unintended consequences may have been to prevent the FBI from receiving the necessary intelligence to stop the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the worst in American history.
Gorelick Memo Allegedly Impeded Probe of Clinton Fundraising Scandal
1995 memo [Clinton presidency-concerned about Chinese election sales] Gorelick wrote, stated explicitly that they would “go beyond what is legally required, [to] prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that FISA is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation.” GORELICK Memo!
Jamie Gorelick’s wall barred anti-terror investigators from accessing the computer of Zacarias Moussaoui, the 20th hijacker, already in custody on an immigration violation shortly before 9/11.
At the time, an enraged FBI investigator wrote a prophetic memo to headquarters about the wall.
Whatever has happened to this — someday someone will die — and wall or not — the public will not understand why we were not more effective in throwing every resource we had at certain problems…..
especially since the biggest threat to us UBL [Usama bin Laden], is getting the most protection.
So, a year before the 9/11 attacks, a special unit in the U.S. military was aware of the presence of an al-Queda cell in Brooklyn, New York, and sought to share its information with the FBI but was stopped cold.Why?Because (as described in the April 16, 2004 Washington Times piece) “on March 4, 1995, [Jamie Gorelick, the then number 2 official in the Clinton Justice Department, sent a 4-page directive] to FBI Director Louis Freeh and Mary Jo White, the New York-based U.S. attorney investigating the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
In the memo, Ms. Gorelick ordered Mr. Freeh and Ms. White to follow information-sharing procedures
that ‘go beyond what is legally required,’ in order to avoid ‘any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance’
that the Justice Department was using Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants, instead of ordinary criminal investigative procedures, in an effort to undermine the civil liberties of terrorism suspects.”
Could 9/11 Have Been Prevented? The Gorelick Memo and What We Knew

Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

Anthrax Attacks...
The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two DemocraticU.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.

$1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history. 2,215 lives lost
The worst, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

[Sun Devil 92]

The OP is silly.

Clinton did not create jobs. The economy did.

Now, if you want to give Clinton credit for that....I am O.K.

But all of this has to be done in context.

Clinton got his ass handed to him in 1994. Then he got to work. He worked with the strong congress to improve the situation so that the economy could grow.

Reagan got a worse economy than Obama. Recall, things got turned around so well that the democrats ran Walter Mondale against him....and watched the country show their approval for Reagan by giving him almost the entire electoral vote

 

[Iceweasel]

Clinton Slashed the Deficit as soon as he took office under Democrat House & Senate creating a Surplus to fund far off Baby Boomers SS Retirement!

The Deficit Exploded as soon as Bush took over under Republican House & Senate!!!

Clinton had a GOP congress that won on the Contract with america. You left that part out. And when Pelosi and Reed came in, spending went through the roof. You left that part out too.
