Ohio Added More Jobs in April Than Any Month in 22 Years

Ohio, like most Midwestern manufacturing states, has been hit very hard over the last decade or so, but believe it or not, the Buckeye state is leading the way back. For the month of April, Ohio led all states with job increases, adding 37,000 jobs, the most Ohio has added in 22 years. Part of the increase comes from the manufacturing and auto sectors, which added 44,000 jobs nationwide.

Ironic, isn't it, considering Jim Renacci, a car salesman, is like all Republican politicians, running around asking where all the jobs are. Well, Mr. Renacci, considering the Republican party that you are a part of, and more importantly whose policies you embrace, decimated Ohio with job losses, you should know where to find them. In the dustbin of failed Republican economic policies, embraced by President George W. Bush and Republicans in Congress during the last decade. As the Wall Street Journal put it — Bush on Jobs: The Worst Track Record on Record.

Democrats Better For The Economy - Yet More Evidence

Ron Brownstein of the National Journal wrote one of the more poignant things you'll read this year:

"If the economy produces jobs over the next eight months at the same pace as it did over the past four months, the nation will have created more jobs in 2010 alone than it did over the entire eight years of George W. Bush's presidency."

Let that sink in for a minute. Despite the absolute shambles that President Bush left the economy when President Obama took office, in a little over a year the economy has turned around to the point where it might well create more jobs in 2010 than Bush/Cheney did in eight years. And Democrats are doing this despite Republican obstructionism, which demonstrates they are more interested in getting elected than actually helping ordinary Americans.

More on Democrats and the economy.

Daily Show correspondent Lewis Black was surprised last night that Glenn Beck had criticized those who have compared Arizona's immigration law to Nazi Germany. "This is a guy," said Black, "who uses more swastika props and video of the Nuremberg rallies than The History Channel."
