WATCH THE VIDEO! It is a short and GREAT example of how politicians can slant numbers to make themselves look good.

Both parties do it, but this was a pretty egregious example of picking a 27 month window and narrowly defining private sector to make yourself look good versus other administrations.

sort of like the last admin passing a budget then the next week ask for billions for Iraq, that of course was'nt included in the budget ..
