More Jobs and the Unemployment Rate Falls to 7%

At both elections the people were crying "Jobs! It's all about jobs!" Well folks, all but three months of the Obama presidency jobs have been on the rise. This administration has been doing what it set out to do. Create jobs and improve the economy. Last month's job figures just came out. 203,000 new jobs were created in November. Unemployment has fallen from 7.3 to 7%. Not bad Obama Administration.

Now detractors are going to claim "these are just McDonald's/Convenience Store jobs and jobs created as holiday temporary help." Not so say the experts. These are good, high paying jobs that are sustainable. There is one question though...after the government shut-down, were the government employees called back counted in these numbers? Too early to tell...but we should know soon.

The point is, we are headed in the right direction. Why people keep denying the facts....I don't know. I do believe that someday, and it may be in the distant future, students may get past the black/white thing and this will be known as "the great Obama recovery."

Because that's what it is. He's done the job. And sadly, once Democrats get things running smoothly again, people get comfortable and elect a Republican who screws it all up. And then the people come clamoring to Democrats to fix it again, and of course they do....and so it goes. And sadly, so it goes.
