Obama’s Inflated Jobs Claim

[jack sommerset]

"In the ad, the president says “over 5 million new jobs” while the figure “5.2 million” appears on screen. But that’s a doubly misleading figure.

Viewers would need to pay close attention to the on-screen graphic to know that the ad refers only to employment gains starting in March 2010, omitting the 4.3 million jobs that were lost in the first year of Obama’s term.

And there’s no way a viewer would know that the total counts only private-sector jobs, omitting continuing losses in government employment."

Bless his heart. He is trying so hard to keep is job. God bless

It's probably a bullshit ad...

"omitting the 4.3 million jobs that were lost in the first year of Obama’s term"

which were in process before he took office. But I expect you to blame every one of those on him personally.

no...that's ridiculous. Studies show that only 4.185 million of those can be attributed to Obama.
