Speaker after speaker at the Dem National Convention has been crying stridently the glowing figures:
"There have been 4,500,000 jobs created during the Obama administration!"
Sounds wonderful, except for one thing.
It isn't true.
It isn't even close.
The correct numbers?
Total jobs in January 2009. . . 111.0 million.
Total jobs in July of 2012. . . . 111.3 million.
Actual number of jobs created: 0.3 million. That's 300,000 jobs created over the 3-1/2 years Obama has been in office.
Aside from that little discrepancy, the Democrats' frantic claims are accurate. :D :D :D
Well, they are only off by MORE THAN A THOUSAND PERCENT.
It makes me wonder:
If the Democrats were going to tell such flagrant lies about what they had done, why did they bother to actually DO anything at all?
Why not just sit around and play basketball and golf for their entire tenure?
And then announce they had created 4 million jobs, gotten everybody out of poverty, doubled the American standard of living, ended all wars, and made the entire world love us?
In fact, that's pretty much what they DID do... and what they are claiming now at their Convention.
It would be a more accurate claim than "4.5 million jobs created".

You know the Democrats are in major trouble when the only way they can make themselves look good, is by telling lies about themselves.
