Obama: You cited the unemployment rate before..
We're calling on the president to call out Romney when he makes false statements about unemployment or any other accomplishments made by progressives. It's not easy cleaning up a big mess.
Why is this important?
President Obama is prepping for his second debate against Mitt Romney.
Romney has been citing the unemployment numbers all this time. Now he's downplaying latest number, 7.8%. It's not surprising that he was happy to talk about the figure when it was above 8%.
Sure, the country could use more jobs, but the fact is that when the president took office, we were losing hundreds of thousands of jobs per month.
The fact is that that during the Obama presidency, we've added jobs. Would we like to speed things up? Sure, but remember what Clinton said at the convention. The republicans feel we didn't clean up their mess quickly enough, so they want back in. Not going to happen.
Let the president know that we need him to defend the progress we've made. Let him know that you want him to, "be clear" about how far we've really come since dems won the white house in 2008. We're almost there, lets not let Romney's false claims determine the winner of this election.
