Employment and Recession: More Job Losses to ComeEconomists React: ‘Scary’ Employment ReportJanuary 9, 2009, 12:04 PM ET.Bush On Jobs: The Worst Track Record On Record
By WSJ Staff
President George W. Bush entered office in 2001 just as a recession was starting, and is preparing to leave in the middle of a long one. That’s almost 22 months of recession during his 96 months in office.
His job-creation record won’t look much better. The Bush administration created about three million jobs (net) over its eight years, a fraction of the 23 million jobs created under President Bill Clinton’s administration and only slightly better than President George H.W. Bush did in his four years in office
taken from a wall street journal article. not sure where SS33 is getting his info from
