What a mess the GOP has made

U.S. employers added 321,000 jobs in November, the latest sign that the United States is outperforming other economies throughout the developed world. The stock market has almost tripled since President Barack Obama took office. Job gains have averaged 241,000 a month this year, putting 2014 on track to be the strongest year for hiring since 1999. The unemployment rate remained at a six-year low of 5.8 percent last month. U.S. crude oil production is up 60 percent.

Wind and solar power production is up 206 percent. Gas prices dropped below $3 a gallon. Oil imports are down 51 percent. What a mess! I hope the Republicans can get things straightened out.
