Democrats always hurt the economy

These charts cover the administrations of Clinton, Bush, and Obama. While Democrats have been in charge of the Senate, jobs have decreased by 2,373,000. That is right; our country has lost more than 2 million jobs in the last 18 years while the Democrats have been in control of the Senate.

Compare that to the fact that while the Republicans have been in charge of the Senate during the last 18 years, jobs have increased by 23,118,000.

Democrat Senators have killed jobs while Republican Senators have created jobs.

For the last 18 years:

1. whenever jobs have decreased, Democrats have been in charge of the Senate. 2. jobs increased every time that Republicans have been in charge of the Senate.

Did you look at the charts in the original article? The odds of this being a coincidence are less than 1% for a stretch of 18 years. So why isn't the media doing this kind of analysis? Why aren't the Republicans doing it? How is it that the Democrats get away with the lie that they are good for the economy?

A point I’m sure the GOP will use during the election.../sarc.

[Son House]

The truth is omitted by the media, as it makes Democrats look bad

[PGalt]

It’s their economy, NOW. Payback time.

But think of all the jobs the Obamanites have “saved.”

[Outlaw Woman]

They should have included Jimmy Carter as well. Why do people keep voting Democrat is beyond comprehension.

[Son House]

Democrats had control of the Senate for 2001 and 2002. They forced Bush to spend on their programs as payment to them for passing any of the Bush initiatives to thwart the impact of 9/11 on the economy.

I do seem to remember Democrats having a lot of trouble resisting retaliation, oh, they still do...

Teenagers took one of the biggest hits of all. Predicted by those against the minimum waage hike, who said that would happen.
