Fearful Symmetry : A Tale of Two Presidents

Posted on February 10, 2010 by Thorne Dreyer

Job losses under two presidents — December, 2007-January, 2010. Chart from Bureau of Labor Statistics / Speaker’s Office / TPM Documents.

The red increase in job loss is the climax of Republican White House control. The blue decrease in job loss is Obama and the Democrats. Sort of like when Superman flies around the world counter-clockwise to undo Lex Luthor’s fiendish destruction.

    Figures don’t lie, but liars can figure. Of course there are less job losses, there are less jobs left to lose. How about NEW jobs, there are 6 1/2 unemployed for every job opening.
    RJ where did you go, what did you see?
