Lets make a deal...

The Republican party has had a mantra for 8 years... Impasse. Roadblock. Shutdown.



Now, they are jumping behind a candidate whose mantra is "lets make a deal". I can make deals, I can get stuff done.



I don't understand, they have spent President Obama's entire administration road blocking any deal and now they are supporting Monty Hall who spent 10 min's talking on Morning Joe today about how he will be very good at working with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

Someone help me understand this?

Facts? What facts back the claim in your second sentence?

The administration of President Obama likes to tout its string of positive-jobs-numbers months -- a streak which as of Friday now stands at 56. It is, as many have pointed out, the longest such string on record. And yet, of the six most recent presidents, Obama ranks fourth in total jobs created and jobs created per month.

How does him ranking fourth in jobs created give him claim to the best job creation record ever?

Presidents are judged on the number of jobs created under their watch not the consecutive number of months of positive job growth.

Oh BOY!

Does this mean it's time for another round of wacko's wordsmithing?

I'm not spending ANOTHER day playing your idiotic semantic word-parsing, "gotcha" games.

You wanted facts, I provided them...I was right, you were wrong...get over it.

I know. He is full of shit. He is probably just looking at the unemployment rate (in which case he would still be wrong)... and not factoring in the drop in labor participation.

I provided the numbers that back up my claim, I provided the link to the site that contains the numbers, but still wacko responds with "I don't know where he's getting this..."

Unbelievable...even when facts are provided, partisan cahacko simply refuse to acknowledge them.

LOL, oh jeez. So we get more of your economic ignorance. Such a joy.

Presidents are judged by jobs created on their watch. That is not a new concept.

I'll offer you a little friendly help Zap. Let's say you're President and in three months there are 100, -1 and 100 jobs created on your watch. On my watch there are 2, 4 and 8 jobs created. I wouldn't have a better jobs record than you because my three months were all positive.

That's not gotcha or word parsing. It's simply understanding how job creation is judged.

This isn't on topic? Interesting. I would run from this too Zap.

I remember when you used to actually STAY on topic.

you are the one desperately avoiding the topic. Your concept of 'best job creation' is wrong. Plain and simple. Job creation is about NET JOBS. Not how many months it is positive.

You can have 50 consecutive months of plus 1000 jobs. Is that better than someone who had 50 months, ten negative, but netted 5,000,000 jobs?
