Unemployment at 10.2% is only those who actively seek work. The actual rate of those who are unemployed is likely closer to 20%. 1 in every 5 working-age Americans is out of a job.

so how many years ya’ll planning on still riding the GWB train? I’ll give it to you now, but I’m gonna being pointing and laughing pretty soon when that is still the only thing you can manage to come up with.

i think 15 months is a fair allotment. after that, shit or get off the pot.

likewise, if obama screws the pooch royally, i’ll not say shit to you for the first 15 months of the next guy’s presidency. it’s only fair.

 agreed, 15 mos it is.
