You are correct. My bad. But work the numbers and it still shows a net gain in jobs of about 900,000 since Jan. 2001, not a 2.5 million loss of jobs.

I think what people are saying is that there are 2.5 million more unemployed people that when Bush took office.

3,091,000 more workers - 689,000 more jobs = 2,402,000 more unemployed.

An expanding labor force is something every president has to deal with.
