Romney Vs Romney
OK this isn’t up to Lewison production standards in fact not up to any production standards, but here is Romney vs Romney on how to evaluate records on employment
Romney on Romney’s record of an employment decline followed by a slow increase (Via American Bridge Via Daily Kos)
Five minutes searching for Romney on Obama’s record of an employment decline followed by a slow increase (cut it off after the first few seconds — it is irritating)
Someone who is marginally video competent has to splice this to a decent Romney V Romney debate clip.
The Text
added [you should re-elect the President because he can honestly say]
“I came in and the jobs had been just falling off a cliff. And I came in and they kept falling for 11 months. And then we turned around and we’re coming back. And that’s progress.”And if you’re going to suggest to me that somehow the day I got elected, somehow jobs should immediately turn around, well that would be silly. It takes a while to get things turned around. We were in a recession; we were losing jobs every month, we’ve turned around, and since the turn around we’ve added [*] jobs. That’s progress.
“There will be some people who try to say, ‘Well [**] , net-net you’ve only added a few [**] jobs since you’ve been in.’ Yeah, but … we were in free-fall for [****] years and the last year of that I happened to be here and then we’ve turned it around as a [*****], private sector, government sector turned it around and now we’re adding jobs…. I’m very pleased that over the last two-and-a-half years we’ve seen pretty consistent job growth.”
