Hey clinton bashers, did you know that the unemployment rate fell from 7% to 5% under clinton?

Do you really think Clinton did that?

Hey clinton bashers, did you know that the unemployment rate fell from 7% to 5% under clinton? loan

And now it%26#039;s around 4.5% with record job growth.

Stick that in your cigar and give it to Monica.|||And how is that attributable to Clinton?|||Hey, did you know that clinton was fortunate enough to ride the tech boom? that means more jobs. He had nothing to do with economic or job growth. he was just a lucky guy in the right place at the right time.|||you a clint banger|||Yeah and to reward himself he got a *******\

Now Bush is cleaning up the security mess that clinton left us.|||Economic mess? Reagan inherited a far worse mess. And the 90s economy boom was mostly dot-com driven. We all know how that turned out. And don%26#039;t forget all the accounting scandals that came to light in 2000.|||Stop living in the past.|||Definitely - even school girls had good jobs as interns....|||Didn%26#039;t take Economics in college, did you?

Not to bash one president, or defend another, but exactly how much control do you think any president has over the economy?|||It may be better job growth but those jobs are not near as high paying as they were during the Clinton years. Good paying jobs are very hard to come by these days. And not many of us have much money. Alot of older americans are having to choose between their medicine %26amp; their rent or house payment or just the regular bills...which to pay for? And some of us younger people are struggling too. And this country has never been more divided than we are right now. And Bush has run up the defecit to an outrageous amount that may never be able to be paid back...all after Clinton got the deficit down to record low amounts. Not to mention what Bush is doing to our environment. Don%26#039;t get me started on all of this..makes me too mad.|||And currently it is around 4.6 % - So your point is that higher taxes creates a higher unemployment rate, right?!

Clinton did a fine job of riding the dot com reveunues and slashing the military and intelligence agencies budgets for only 3000+ lives on 911. Nice job slick willy.

Balanced budget = no security %26amp; 3000+ innocent lives killed!|||Here%26#039;s real numbers:

In 1996, under Clinton, unemployment reached 4.2% - the lowest since the Kennedy administration.

If you%26#039;d like to see how economic conditions were under presidents since WWII I strongly recommend this great article from Forbes Magazine (not a %26quot;liberal%26quot; source at all).

Even this business-centered magazine is willing to admit that the economy was the best it%26#039;s been under Clinton.

And the current unemployment rate is 4.6% (good, but it%26#039;s not better than Clinton). And while there is job growth, it at an annualized average of .4% - the slowest job growth during any economic recovery in history.
