3. Huh?
You mean how the Y axis doesn't start at 0? Big deal, it's a shifted axis, doesn't mislead at all, the scale is consistant.

6. I can't agree with your assessment of the importance of not shifting up.
If we want to focus on absolute jobs lost or the change in slope since Bush II came to power we can do it with a graph whose y axis starts at zero just as easily.

7. Ouch
thats damning, even if the pukes economy goes up it wont last for long because of the deficit he caused. Also no taxes mean nothing gets going in government so no highways bridges construction and that will kill an economy.
