Pelosi says more jobs created in Obama's first year than 8 years of George W. Bush (BS Meter)
PolitiFact ^ | 5/16/2011

Posted on 05/17/2011 8:08:54 PM PDT by Beave Meister

During a May 16, 2011, interview with Bloomberg television, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., praised President Barack Obama’s record on jobs while taking a shot at former President George W. Bush.

"We got in this situation where we had tax cuts for the wealthiest people in our country, which did not create jobs," she said. "In the first year of the Obama administration, more jobs were created in the private-sector than in the eight years of the Bush administration, with all of the tax cuts that President Bush had."

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the economy shed almost 4.2 million private-sector jobs during the first year of the Obama administration -- January 2009 through January 2010.

Meanwhile, during eight years under Bush, the economy gained a net 188,000 private sector jobs.

The BS meter is off the charts. The woman needs to be institutionalized.....or at the very least, stop drinking the bong water. Just change it once in a while.

She just says what they tell her to say. She has no brains. Another empty suit.

I can”t figure out if she is a) stupid b) deranged or c) a cynical liar.

Just my opinion of course.

This one is far too easy to put the lie too...

Just pull out the unemployment numbers throughout Bush II’s terms and compare to Obama’s 2 years...

Some Libs are at least smart enough to tell lies that are hard to prove. Pelosi is the queen of turd soup.... in other words, she is beyond clueless.

But the press in California loves her anyway... and apparently the voters do too. So they like to eat that soup too...

More jobs for Democrat operatives, perhaps.

She is laughable

I think the Botox has finally dissolved the last few remaining brain cells inside that tiny peanut shell she refers to as her cranium.
