    this isn't the exact table I was looking for, but it pretty much tells the story:

    Lookit

    The Clinton Administration did have lower unemployment rates than the current low of 4.4% for the Bush Administration as this data shows from the BLS.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Bush is not running for office. He may be running from the law though when his term ends. Whomever takes office will have a big mess to clean up. Be they dem or repub. This nation has been run over and thrashed like a bull in a china shop by this administration. Like RR's administration only worse for this time we may not recover.
    A chance for a new beginning, like a dawn of reconciliation.

    yep. BLS has unemployment data...and it has employment data.

    what is your point? there are not directly inversely proportional.

    Here is another table...it doesn't show the first Clinton term, but it covers the second and compares it to the Bush years fairly well.

    Mr.P is just doing what he accuses. Just as I will not accept his reasons he will not accept mine. That is just the joy of America.

    You gave no reasons, you made a statement. A one at that.

    So what exactly is the next administration going to have to fix? What exactly has Bush done to make the country worse?

    I think that whoever is in office next is going to have to do something about:

    -The medicare Pill Bill and it being on the road to bankrupt us as a country

    -Stop the Spending and Borrowing from China.

    -Shore up Social Security, baby boomers are less than a couple of years away from recieving retirement.

    -Reform Fisa and Patriot Act with full oversight from the intelligence committee.

    -Figure out something to bring Health Care costs down.

    -Focus on becoming less oil dependent.

    And those are just a few of the domoestic issues that need to be addressed.
