Obama has had 9 programs now for boosting job numbers.
Oh, and each program has cost us taxpayers in the BILLIONS,.
That's success, to Obama. Like 7 million sign-ups for Obamacare
and he lies that people are eager to sign up. Heck no, they're
not. They sign up because of the threat "if you don't sign up,
you'll pay a fine".

Liberals don't understand the numbers. They go only by the unemployment rate which doesn't take into consideration the number of people who have left the job market altogether. Their unemployment has run out so they are no longer counted, but they are not getting jobs.

Because you are looking at one data point and making a conclusion instead of looking at a trend over time.
This is called the "texas sharpshooter" fallacy. You cherry-picked a data cluster to suit your argument, or found a pattern to fit a presumption.

unemployment would be 4.3% instead of 14% now .
