24. Name calling and character assasination wears poorly on you.

The internet brings out the worst in some people and encourages people to engage in behavior they would never have the guts to engage in in person. That is one reason I do not hide behind an anonymous name on my posts. Like you.

My name and reputation is on every thing I ever post. Anywhere.

The numbers do not lie. Since 9/2011 President Obama's record on job creation exceeds the 1st term results of every Republican president in history. I'm sorry that disappoints you.

The larger historical facts in the lead post are:
1). Every Republican President tanks job creation.
2). Every Democratic President reverses that trend by a large margin
Your thinking in explaining away those facts is to assign the results to chance and bad luck. I am stating the indisputable facts that the results are due to Republican economic incompetance and Democratic accomplishment.

When examining the record of job creation we must look where President Obama started out to fully understand how far he has taken us as a nation down the road to recovery.

Compare Truman's record to Eisenhower's. Eisenhower's sucks. Compare Eisenhowers to Kennedy's mikekohr Jul 2012 #42

Well why don't you be fair and scale the job creation records according to size of labor force? progree Jul 2012 #43

Are you hiding that Reagan's first term was better than Obama's last 28 months, when scaled? progree Jul 2012 #46
