An excellent math smackdown performed by Obama's cousin:
Waving his finger at Americans, President Obama declared that income taxes must be increased, not on those who arent even paying them, but rather on those who, despite already paying the whole of the bill, somehow still arent paying their fair share. This is not class warfare, defended the redistributor-in-chief, this is math.
OK, Mr. President, Ill bite. How about this math?
Under Obamanomics, the unemployment rate has increased from 7.8 percent to 9.1 percent, and underemployment has increased from 14.0 percent to 16.2 percent. The average length of unemployment has increased from 19.9 weeks to 40.3 weeks. Median income has dropped from $52,029 per year to $49,445.
Since Mr. Obama has taken office, the total number of jobs in America has decreased from 142.2 million to 139.6 million. Most schoolchildren with a calculator would say thats a loss of 2.6 million jobs, but not Barack Obama. The White House has claimed that the stimulus created - or saved - 2.5 million to 3.6 million jobs. Off by 6 million, but close enough for government work, I suppose.
Now the administration claims that the presidents new jobs plan will create 1.9 million jobs. Please, Mr. President, the few Americans fortunate enough still to have jobs beg you: Stop creating away so many of their jobs....
