Until Friday Feb fifth, we thought that the Stimulus Economy lost “only” 2.7 million jobs. When Democrats were called out on the bad jobs market, they always answered “if not for the Stimulus, it would have been much worse.”
Well, well, well. By revising its jobs numbers Friday, we learned from bls.gov that the stimulus economy lost almost 3.3 million jobs, which is worse than thought until now. Will Dems now again say “it could have been worse”? Sorry, they said it when we thought the economy lost only 2.7 million jobs.
The revised numbers shows the American people that the “could have been worse” line is just an excuse pulled out of thin air – not by facts, as we see: the job market IS worse!
It’s All Good

I understand your point of view. However, the most important economic and politcal issue these days is… Jobs. However, as I said: I hear you. Therfore, I will try cutting back on this topic.
