The Democrat's Economic Record:

Or this post could be titled "How to double the unemployment rate in under 4 years".  When the Democrats took over Congress in January 2007, less than four years ago the unemployment rate was only 4.6%.  In less than four years their disastrous policies have more than doubled the rate.  In red is the Unemployment Rate under Republican Rule - in blue is the unemployment rate under Democrat Rule.   Hat Tip BLS.

Good post. I just completed a 20 year analysis showing who was in power, etc. It also has a graph and commentary of GDP for the period. Check it out and give me your comments. http://practicalman.org/?p=206
