This is sort of like the other thread about polititians lying. They all speak in half truths, and convieniently leave out things that do not support their argument.damn, Im busted.
Most of this pablum is for the party faithful. And both parties are equal in their misrepresenting of the facts.
In other words, they are depending on the Voter being stupid enough to swallow their crap. Originally Posted by Jackie S

When Obama took office, unemployment for men (8.6 percent) was already sharply higher than for women (7 percent). The rate peaked for men at 11.2 percent in October 2009 and for women at 9 percent a month later.
Since then, the gap has nearly closed. Last month, the rate was 8.3 percent for men and 8.1 percent for women. Originally Posted by BigLouie
