Direct me to a site that has info about job losses and outsourcing.
Is there such a website or group? I watch our Democrats absolutely incapable of standing up to the GOP talking heads on this issue.

There has been an overall loss....in the minus column..yet just now on Crossfire someone said a million and a half jobs had been created since last year. NO one questioned it......yet isn't it true that we are still in the deficit mode on lost jobs?

If it is true they are gaining all those jobs, is there a site to prove that?

Or, maybe I should just ask if anyone knows at all about job loss.

We are letting them run all over us on this issue, not questioning it.

1. I found one article mentioning 900.000 loss, thought it was more.

"Economists expect to see decent growth, but not even the most optimistic think today's report will move the president from a net loss of more than 900,000 jobs to a net gain, dating back to when he took office in January 2001."

I thought it was more.
