Some day we'll pull out of this receeding economy we've been having the past few years, darn it.

All I'm saying here is that the signals are mixed at best.
Bush supporters were all excited about 4.6% unemployment until that pesky press mentioned that it was the lowest rate since July '01 -- you know, the Clinton Recession.
And all the unemployment stats are pretty much inventions, anyway in that they under-count the self employed, fail to take in a booming underground economy and have no mechanism for dealing with skilled workers forced to take unskilled jobs...
I hated Economics in college because there were never enough axes to account for all of the influences.
