Obama Hasn't Had One Week of Initial Claims for Unemployment Below 375,000

By the only measure that counts: The seasonally-adjusted 4-week moving average.

LOOK IT UP: here.

The ONLY time it got that low was ONE week in February of 2011.

Every other single week has been HIGHER. In fact, I count just 13 weeks in the below 400,000 category for Pres. Obama, all of which have occurred in 2011. By contrast, Pres. George W. Bush had 318 weeks below 400,000.

Obama's entire presidency to date, nearly three years, is defined by doing NOTHING about unemployment at catastrophic levels: WORKERS COVERED BY UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE UNDER OBAMA HAVE DECLINED BY 8 MILLION.

President Obama is an unmitigated disaster to the American worker, who suffers silently because of Obama's policies.
