Jobless numbers are awful. 96,000 "new" jobs (equals a net -55,000, since 151,000 are required to keep up with population growth), and, what's worse, unemployment actually DROPPED to 8.1% because nearly 400,000 Americans GAVE UP LOOKING. What's even worse than that was while we've been lied to for the last three days how everything is getting better, we actually were better off in 2011, when we averaged 153k jobs per month. 2012 is a very anemic 139k on average.

Yep, Joe was right.
"We've turned the corner".
Except we're on the wrong street.

Think about these numbers. Population alone dictates that in order to grow jobs, we MUST hire at least 151,000 a month. On average, in 2012, we've only hired 139k. That means after 8 months, the US has actually LOST a net of 96,000 jobs.

We are not better off than we were 4 years ago. Of course this is all Bush's fault
