Obama was inaugurated towards the end of January 2009.

600,000 jobs were lost in January of 2009. Was that Obama's doing? He must have been very busy slashing jobs in his first week in office.

And an additional 650,000 jobs in February of 2009. Lay off the kook-aid!

My mistake. That was end of 2009. If we went by end of 2008, the numbers would be worse.

Total employed population 2008 145,362,000

Total employed population 2011 139,869,000

Subtract the 1,251K for the period you were talking about:

Jobs lost by Obama---------------4,242,000

It took about 1 year or so to combat the worst recession in American history. It takes time to fix the largest economy in the world.

What happens if you start at February 2010? You get positive job growth in the private sector going on almost THREE YEARS!

So far 4.5 million non-government jobs created (about 157k a month average).

That's right wing stuff alright - totally void of any footing in reality.
