Based on the discussion at this post here is a week by week chart, taken straight from the Bureau of Lies Damned Lies and Statistics, on how many lost their jobs each week since January 2010 (a year into Obama's Presidency and when it is no longer even feasible to blame Bush alone). I don't care whether you use the non-seasonally adjusted number (N.S.A.) or the "official" government number (S.A.). It's a damned bit more than 4,300,000 jobs created in 27 months.
But the situation is not as dire as some would say. And these poor people our hearts go out to them this is terrible blame Obama blame Europe Blame the Repubs and Dems and stop paying them unemployment they should just go out and get a job.
You bet.
