"Sorry, Stephanie Cutter, the Obama recovery hasn’t created more jobs than the Reagan recovery"
It's pretty obvious that the Obama Campaign is practicing this on a grand scale.
Even when the lies ARE proven, the "in-the-tank" media continues to allow, rather than rebut them...
James Pethokoukis writes about it on the American Enterprise Institute blog:
"Just how do the Obama and Reagan recoveries stack up in terms of jobs?
• From the end of the recession in June 2009 through July 2012 — the first 37 months of the Obama recovery — the U.S. economy has generated 2.7 million net new jobs. From the jobs low point in February 2010, the U.S. economy has generated 4 million net new jobs.
From the end of the 1981-82 recession through the end of of 1985 — the first 37 months of the Reagan recovery — the U.S.created 9.8 million net new jobs. And if you adjust for the larger U.S. population today, the comparable figure is more than 12 million jobs."
