WSJ finally gets one right: W worst ever at jobs


Bush On Jobs: The Worst Track Record On Record

President George W. Bush entered
office in 2001 just as a recession was starting, and is preparing to

during his 96 months in office.

His job-creation record won’t look much better. The Bush

years, a fraction of the 23 million jobs created under President Bill Clinton’s administration and only slightly better than President George H.W. Bush did in his four years in office.
