"Obama says he has created 4.5 million jobs during the first last 27 weeks months of his Admin."

That works only if you count only the months with job increases, and don't count the months with job losses.

Obama likes to say that Bush only created 118,00 jobs in his entire 8 years. That only works if you count the jobs starting the first day of the Bush administration (neglecting the residual of job losses from the Clinton Recession and then 9-11) and go to the last day of the Bush administration which includes all of the losses from the financial collapse. If you count Obama jobs from day one, as he does with Bush, including his first 15 months, he has LOST a couple of million jobs.

They are excellent at trotting out statistics.

This only works because a lot of people believe in statistics and/or statistics are so boring that people tune the whole thing out.

It is pathetically easy to manipulate statistics.

All we have to do is look around. People are out of work. People can’t sell their houses which are often underwater.

You don’t need statistics to tell you that.

This is really key stuff but it does not seem to get out!
