The Failure of Fiscal Conservatism to create jobs

The Wall Street Journal, arguably one of the more fiscally Conservative press, shows just how bad Republicans are at job creation.
Admittedly Reagan created 16 Million jobs. Quite a few, however Clinton created 7.1 million more jobs than that. Whilst raising taxes!
Bush and his tax cuts created 3.1 million jobs. A fraction of what was created by Clinton.
Bringing in population changes still reveals Clinton’s methods to be superior to Reagan’s as he only had a 1.9% increase in population in comparison to Reagan. Meaning that while population only increased by 1.9%, Clinton created 3.5% more jobs.
So Clinton was bad for the economy was he? And Obama repeating any of what Clinton did makes us marxist fools does it? Well then I am sure the many unemployed would welcome the change.
