Again, as I stated before, I was referring to the past 5 years, not just the past couple months.

it better be growing back, considering the fact that he wrecked it when he took office. how many differant ways can bush use 9/11 to cover his ass? economy, terrorism, homeland security? you name it, he uses 9/11 to push every shitty agenda he has.

He did. It's not like he's the only that has, either.

so you don't know or you just don't want to tell me? or are you just buying into what everyone is saying? I just want to make sure cause you said something, and I want you to tell me your reasoning behind it if you have any.
I hope ninty will come soon and contribute to this discussion further

ok, now there is a good response.
That article says that Bush has lost this many jobs and that many jobs, but the fact is, by the end his first term, all of the jobs lost since the beginning of the term had been regained.

Washington Post.
I don't have the specific articles but we read each month's official jobs reviews in economic class throughout the year.
I also can't find the specific articles in the archive because WP makes you pay to search through archives I beleive but if you really want them I can figure something out.
I thought it was pretty big news though that the job numbers had rebounded before the term ended because they were trying to say that he was the first president to finish a term with fewer jobs than when he started right at election time but ended up not being able to put that on him because they rebounded to the preterm number by fall of 2004.
And you're right about economic statistics, I think they are hard to find because a lot of the articles are on news databases that change daily so the articles are either lost in archives or just forgotten about and removed since they aren't new.
