Following is a graph showing the total employment in the United States 2001-2011.
Two things are apparent:
1.
Democrats insist that Obama has "created" more jobs in 4 years than Bush did in 8 years.
The graph shows that total employment increased 10 million during the Bush years following the Clinton recession and the 9/11 attack
until the recession started in 2008. Unfortunately this claim by democrats goes unchallenged!
2. The number of people working has increased ~2 million under Obama as of 2011.
The government really doesn't create jobs.
If they are smart they get out of the way!

Total Employment in the US Falls Again
Total employment in the United States fell in July by 38,000 people, from 139.334 to 139.296 million. This was a much smaller loss than the previous month. However, once again the average number of total employed for the current year is in decline. My forecast is that by next year, after revisions and the complete data, 2011′s average—currently at 139.55 million–will fall below 2010′s average of 139.07 million. | see: United States Total Employment in Millions (seasonally adjusted) 2001-2011.

Just as we learned with recent GDP revisions, which showed the economy had still not eclipsed the 2007 highs in real terms, total employment in the United States continues on a flat to downward path. Slowly but surely, America is coming to accept there was no sustainable economic recovery after 2008. Indeed, the economy is still very much tied down to the conditions of that financial crisis, and will be mired there for several more years.

Very revealing graph.
For the life of me, I cannot remember what on earth happened in late 2008 and early 2009 to cause such a drop.
LOL.
I had never seen that before.
That is the exact thing Romney needs on the campaign trail and at debates.
What is so good about it is the exactness of the dates.
