Focusing on jobs before this year would have been a complete failure. The economists all agreed on the way a recession/depression works, is jobs go fast and are the last thing to recover. They said from the gitgo, employment would not recover before the end of 2010. The only way to beat that, is for the government to hire zillions of people... or institute a draft.

He certainly was even-handed. He criticized Wall Street, The banks, The Supreme Court, The Democrats, The Rebuicans, and The Senate, as I recall.
