But that they are getting better is really not a matter that is debatable right now. So if your remaining argument is "Things are not as good as you promised they would be" well, OK you are probably right so far. But give it time.

I'm happy to give it time. I was just wondering if by saying the jobs picture is rosier you are ignoring the admin's projections at the time of the tax cut. It sounds like you are. I'm not calling you or them a liar or anything because of it, so don't assume that I'm on the same "tact" as these other folks you cite.

Another note. You are both right to say its hard to judge the effects of the tax cut. What makes it even harder is that THE TAX CUT REALLY HASN'T GONE INTO EFFECT YET! The bulk of it is back ended.

OK, but wouldn't the projections TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT?
