Yep when the liberal democrats were were the only ones telling us how good a service economy was, the conservative republicans were fighting tooth and nail to keep that from happening.

Look at all the new jobs they can say they created while ignoring the ones lost to the private sector.

With enough money in the pot to give to non-profits one can make it look like the private sector is just thriving in creating jobs.

I know for a fact that there's some furnaces, AC units, windows, etc... that were replaced in a number of RENTAL homes in this area all at the governments expense, because the non-profit members in charge of those funds determined it could be paid for through their organization, instead of the true owners having to pay to do it.

This would be an excellent point if it were true. Unfortunately, you have it completely backwards.

Private sector jobs Feb 1, 2001: 111,631,000
Private sector jobs Feb 1, 2009: 110,985,000
Net change in private sector: -646,000

Government jobs Feb 1, 2001: 20,835,000
Government jobs Feb 1, 2009: 22.576.000
Net change in government jobs: 1,741,000



Private sector jobs Feb 1, 2009: 110,985,000
Private sector jobs Sept 1, 2012: 111,400,000
Net change in private sector: 415,000

Government jobs Feb 1, 2009: 22,576,000
Government jobs Sept 1, 2012: 21,900,000
Net change in government jobs: -676,000


So over the 8 years of Bush, 646,000 private sector jobs were lost while 1,741,000 government jobs were gained.

Meanwhile during the Obama years, 415,000 private sector jobs were gained while 676,000 government jobs were lost.

These numbers are from the BLS: http://www.bls.gov/cps/#data

Have you anything to say?

Of course all of them. Service jobs are bad and since democrats are bad they would be for what's bad. And since Republicans are good they would be agin that.

Rather than probe for a point with rhetorical questions, why don't you simply tell us?
