Pop this, Mr. Greenspan! 

Get a load of this quote: "[GREENSPAN:] We could get a pop in employment at any time," Greenspan said last week (via AP). You know, if Greenspan lost his job—or even knew anyone who lost their job—I don't think he'd be calling making up some of the 3 million jobs we've lost under Bush a "pop."

Why don't we outsource Greenspan?

And, oh yeah, the Bushogarchy is generating jobs at about a third of the rate it should be.

Analysts believe the nation's payrolls grew by a net 135,000 jobs in February, which would be an improvement from the 112,000 jobs added in January but would still mark a fairly lackluster pace. The employment report for February will be released Friday. Economists want to see the economy generate around 200,000 or 300,000 net jobs a month on a consistent basis before they declare a recovery in the fragile labor market.

Man, if I go 20 miles an hour in a 60 mile an hour zone, I get arrested! But Bush seems to think it's OK ...
