Clinton added jobs? Help me destroy freeper argument!

[oscar111]

This freeper is claiming Clinton did not add any jobs.

anyone know how many jobs Clinton years added?

I thank you for any help on this!

[prodigal_green]

1. Clinton added 22 million jobs

What kind of psycho are you talking to?

[RaleighNCDUer]

5. Does that 22 million include, or stand above the jobs that needed

to be created to counter the 7.5% unemployment left him by Bush1? In other words, 22 million in 8 years, or just in the 6 years after he cleaned up Pappy's mess?

2. Check the Department of Labor Payroll Survey results - based on payroll

tax payments.

I doubt payroll tax is paid if the job does not exist as a filled position.

www.DOL.GOV

[Wickerman]

3. common method of measuring job growth

oddly enough.

Denial is no just a river in Alabama apparently.

[oscar111]

4. THANKS!! ok, everybody agree on 22 million?

Super thanks to Green! Fast and short, just like i like info.

Couldnt find payrolls at the DOL site index.

All agree that 22 M is the answer?

This freeper is a big one for the startling claim. But this will deflate him, for sure!
The DU gang comes thru again!
PS what does prodigal green mean?

[papau]

8. Exact data below: 131785 less 108726 is 23+ million new jobs

End of Dec 92 to end of Dec 2000 - 23+ millionnot seasonally adjusted, or 132441 less 109418 seasonally adjusted, or 23+ million

14. Jobs

Just imagine how many jobs would have been created if those jackasses in the Republican controlled Congress had approved of the legislation that Mr Clinton wanted! His policies could have created another 10 million or more. And if the Nov 2000 election hadn't been stolen, we could have counted on still another 10 million jobs!!!

Imagine - no unemployment, no deficits, no foreign wars.

VOTE FOR KERRY-EDWARDS!!!

[prodigal_green]

13. prodigal green

means I voted Nader in 2000 but came home again.

edit: before crucifying me--I voted Nader in a safe state.

6. Tell him/her this from ME.

"You're too stupid to hold American Citizenship and are hereby deemed stripped of said citizenship. Please move to crawford texas where your fateful leader resides. Idiot."


FOB thanks you for dealing with such a moran in the first place.

7. Use these facts and links

Cause we Democrats like to use facts and repukes like to use fear.

The Clinton-Gore Economic Record: The Longest Expansion In History And Over 22.4 Million New Jobs

Today, the Bureau of Labor Statistics Released a New Employment Report Showing that Over 22.4 Million Jobs Have Been Created Since January 1993. In 1992, when Bill Clinton was elected President, the American economy was barely creating jobs, wages were stagnant, and the unemployment rate was 7.5 percent. President Clinton’s bold, three-part economic strategy has focused on three objectives: fiscal discipline, investing in education, health care, science and technology; and opening foreign markets. This strategy has helped create over 22.4 million jobs and contributed to the longest economic expansion in U.S. history.

9. By the end of his first term

President Clinton's economy had added 10 million new jobs. The economic plan responsible for this growth had passed in 1994 without a single republican vote.

By the end of his second term, 22 million jobs had been added.

The touted argument that the unemployment rate is exactly where it was in 1996 is true, but only tells half the truth. In January, 1993, when President Clinton took office, the unemployment rate was 7.9%, and was DOWN to 5.4% at the end of that term. When Bush took office in January 2000, the unemployment rate was 4.2%, and is now UP to 5.4%. Not exactly the accomplishment he is claiming.

10. papau, free1, maven: you knocked my socks off!!

wow what deep source finding, and so FAST.

How you guys do that? Gals maybe, cant tell.

can all explain webhandles? hobby of mine to learn what they mean.

I will relay the message to freeper about retiring to Crawford LOL.

Looks like 23 million, ten the first term, is the figure.

Papau, you must have facts running out of your fingertips.

[papau]

11. :-) Aw shucks! .... :-)

:-)

[oscar111]

12. PS the ancillary facts, like unemp rate up during bush,

and the three prong C. strategy, and all the other ancillary facts volunteered above, are more than i have time to comment on just now, but be assured they are now in my memory to fire at freepers,

and these new facts are most appreciated. Freepers will now lose pretty fast on these issues.

You guys/gals are educating me!
