Although not as potent as one might have hoped, we stopped bleeding jobs and our GDP started going north instead of south. This followed a brief lag between the time Obama's policies were passed and the time they could have been expected to take effect.<br /><br />From where I sit Obama did indeed make the implicit claim that his policies were to a very real degree responsible and, not only that, he was perfectly right to do so. <br /><br />I can understand the liberal/left's anger at Politifact. What I don't understand is the l/l's passionate denial that Obama was justifiably claiming success.Hieronymus Braintreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303938809800287873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-21174546122437700242012-01-26T22:17:14.297-05:002012-01-26T22:17:14.297-05:00Nicely observed.Nicely observed.Hieronymus Braintreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303938809800287873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-40790793234004846762012-01-26T17:58:15.849-05:002012-01-26T17:58:15.849-05:00The other night Kessler's fact checking was we...The other night Kessler's fact checking was weak and poorly prepared on the News Hour.

The linked clip is Godawful. Corporate TV news is worse than I remember from way back in 2003 when I stopped viewing.<br /><br />Anyhows, the whole "business created jobs meme" is a misdirection adopted by both parties. I really don't care what Politifact determined or what the Obots conclude.<br /><br />The whole implication of this claim - in the long run - is to dehumanize PUBLIC SECTOR workers (i.e. teachers, cops, Military, firemen, toll collectors, etc.). So while the private sector (i.e. Bizness) has added 3 million jobs in the past 22 months the PUBLIC SECTOR has eliminated appx. 1.4 million. A net 1.6 million job growth in nearly 2 years.<br /><br />A HORRIBLE rate, especially considering "official" unemployment has been over 8.5% for the past 37 months and REAL underemployment (U-6 numbers) have been over 14% during that same span.<br /><br />So yea, the Con man in the White House told a truth...but that truth is hardly something worth bragging about. Especially in a SOTU speech.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
