Under Clinton, the economy added 22.7 million jobs – 237,000 per month.
Over the whole of the Bush administration through 2007, the economy
added only 5.8 million jobs – 72,000 per month.

Furthermore, the jobs created under Bush have been primarily low paying,
Walmart type retail jobs.

You are correct. This is flat out false. In fact, according to Bureau of
Labor Statistics,

(For the period from January 2001 - July 2005)

On average, The Bush's economy has created 393,000 new jobs per year.

On average, Clinton created 2.75 million per year.

That's NOT ¼ less jobs under Bush; That's almost 7 TIMES the number of jobs
created under Clinton than Bush!

That's a little deceptive in the shorter time period. But July 2005
is the peak of job creation under Bush. The trend since then has been
straight down, with losses from Feb this year till now... that seems
likely to continue.

About the only job sector that has done well under W has been
Government jobs.

You obviously missed the whole point. Under Clinton, wages grew
substantially. Employment grew substantially. Under GW, the marginal
increase was primarily low wage retail jobs - thus the stagnant /
declining standard of living .

I wouldn't be surprised if Walmart added many more jobs under Clinton.
The difference was they weren't the primary source of growth in the
Clinton years.

I believe most of venom directed at wally world is from pro-union zealots.

How many of Clintons jobs were "would you like fries with that?" and
government jobs?

Care to give us a break down?

Considering wages increased substantially during the Clinton vs. GW
years, even someone with minimum math skills could conclude there were
more higher paying jobs than lower paying jobs in the Clinton years.

The trouble with the wingnut right is that they have not a clue about
who opposes them. You make up these strawmen that you can attack and
they bear no relation to reality.

This has been a continuous problem for those on your side. For
although politics may be made up of such fantasies, reality keeps
slapping you in the face when these assumptions you make simply don't
hold up. Just saying something is so, does not make it so.

And just in case you haven't noticed, real wages of all Americans has
been falling.

www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/realer.pdf

Real average weekly earnings fell by 0.8 percent from June to July after
seasonal adjustment, according to preliminary data released today by the
Bureau
of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. A 0.3 percent
increase in
average hourly earnings was more than offset by a 0.3 percent decrease in
average weekly hours and a 0.9 percent increase in the Consumer Price
Index for
Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W)

The part I don't understand is that the Republicans are strongly pro
small business, yet pro Walmart, where Walmart has done more to kill off
small business than any other factor.

Indeed. Sort sightedness is in wide supply. By and large current
Republican policies skew more and more toward the Uber Wealthy. This
thread is an example in point of just how many unfounded beliefs they
have that are based solely on faith. The faithful want to be led not
enlightened.

I've heard it said that there are only two kinds of Republicans:
Millionaires and Fools.

On a side note. I find that some of the most rabid Walmart defenders are
also virulently opposed to Hispanic immigration. There is perhaps no
greater Hispanic Immigrant magnet than Walmart.

Even a fast food job beats no job at all. Well that is unless you are
happy on welfare and not paying your hospital bills.

I don't have a breakdown under Clinton, certainly a lot of high tech
jobs were added amongst others. Certainly wages rose. I do know that
under W, the public sector job growth has been greater than the private
sector.

Traditional welfare makes up about 1% of the Fed budget. Few people
make a "living" off welfare. Even AFDC single moms tend to be off in a
couple years. Arguably "corporate" welfare is a far higher percentage of
the budget.

This right wing red meat issue has little impact on the economy.

As you've stated, even a fast food job beats welfare.

Sure, most efficient in terms of manufacturing, but we don't manufacture
much of anything anymore (except for food) relative to 20 or 50 years ago.
Look at GM and Ford, its in the gutter going broke. GM used to be number 1,
now no one is buying it except the Chinese. Just go back to the 50s, we had
a huge manufacturing base; TVs, radios, bikes, test equipment, all kind of
consumer and industrial products. No more, manufacturing shifted to Asia,
Europe and even South America. Just cannot compete against low foreign wages
based on American technology..Just look at the stuff around your house or
office. How many are still made in America? Up till the 1960s almost all,
sad isn't it? Fortunately we are still the land of opportunity.

Sure agree with that. Grew up in the inner city with some tough blue collar
and ghetto kids. School wasn't the best but could still get a good
education. So many of my schoolmates just don't give a shit, prefer raising
hell to reading books. Street wise tough kids with straight F's and doing
time in juvenile jail were look up on like rock stars while kids with
straight A's had the shit kicked out of them. Where are some those juve kids
now? On welfare, death row, or six feet under?

Really? I've done it and it worked fine. What possible "security

would those be?

As we know some people have a greater density of taste buds built into their
tongues. I have less, but my wife and son have more than i do and they can
detect subtle food flavours that I cannot.

Tescos in North London U.K. sometime do meat in their 'reduced price'
section. The other day I got some really good beef and lamb which was
slightly 'darker' coloured from this section at about 1/4 of the normal
price. I fried it up and enjoyed it and put the rest in the freezer.

Other members of the family thought this was truly awful. My view is that
although if you smell it closely, it is different; but that it is basically
just a bit of *oxizidation* and it does not effect the taste. Years ago
they used to hang up 'game' outside for weeks.

Views on this really seem to divide people. But I cannot believe that a big
store like Tesco would continue to sell this very slightly off coloured
meat, if it represented any health risk.
Any comments on this please, whether one can safetly consume such meat?

"Reduced for quick sale" is my favorite cut of meat. I've eaten it for
decades.

If it stinks when you open it, let it breathe a while. If it still stinks
after a few minutes, you be the judge. I've had a lot of 'fresh' cryovaced
meat stink like hell right out of the package but then smell fresh as a
daisy minutes later.

I just finished eating some questionable ground lamb. First time I've ever
had it. I'll update tomorrow if I become ill.

Also, I've had fresh smelling meat emit a stench from Hell once I started
cooking it. It's only happened a couple of times, but it went into the
trash immediately.

I was. I just couldn't remember the name. Do you get your power directly
from GaP or do you have a local utility? I knew that Cobb EMC was higher than
other parts of Atlanta but I didn't think that they were that high.

Do you have gas? I left just as they were "deregulating" (sic) gas. I heard
from friends still in Cobb county that their gas bills doubled. True with
you?
