[GiovanniC]

I need to site some of them for a Freeper beat-down.

Richard Nixon, 35 years ago.

3. Clinton really sticks out

(I couldn't help it)

[GiovanniC]

4. That's Definitely One of Them!

Thanks!

I think that there are more, too. I can't get CBO to come up for some stupid reason.

5. Here is another one

Notice every single Democratic President left the country better off than when they took office while just the opposite is true for Republicans.

6. For the visual learner, very good

I'm sending this around, especially to my freeper uncle.

9. I'm No Economist

But are those projections really credible? They seem to be... ahem... taking some liberties there.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics charts are credible, I know. But when you hover over those charts, you get another chart that says that by the end of Bush's presidency, they project a 9% "official" unemployment rate (it's "officially" 5.6% now), they project that the DOW will be down to 6,000, and they project a further 4 million jobs lost.

10. Yeah, the projections are baloney.

The "actual" graphs are great though. That's what I was referring to.
