re: Slowest Job Recovery In A Long Time If Not Ever

Outsourcing long precedes Bush's election, and there are many sources showing that it is not having the massive negative effect the Democrats are howling about, and even has a positive overall economic effect in many cases.

It is, however, a good political weapon to use when your audience tends to perceive only the surface of an issue. The last thing a politician (of any party) likes to see in a voter is a lot of thinking.

As for slow job recovery, I don't see any evidence that Bush's tax cuts were the reason for that, or that the special "targeted" tax cuts that Democrats always talk about but never seem to enact when they're in power (remember Clinton's tax cut promises?) would have had better results.
