unemployment is lower now than ever during your buddy Clinton's two terms.

Unemployment rate October 2004: 5.5
Lowest unemployment rate during period February 1, 1993 to January 31, 2001: 3.8 in April 2000
Lowest unemployment rate during period February 1, 2001 to October 31, 2004: 4.2 in February 2001
Number of months in period 2/1/93-1/31/01 that uneployment was lower than or equal to rate in October 2004: 61
Total number of months in that period: 96
Total percentage of time in Clinton's two terms that unemployment was less than now: 63.5%

So as you can see, not only is unemployment now NOT "lower now than ever during...Clinton's two terms," it is in fact higher now than during more than half of Clinton's two terms.
