Sheesh. I don't know about you, Bill, but if I were unemployed for 2 or 3 years, I'd be pretty darn impatient with Obama who has failed to address the jobs situation in any meaningful way.

Clinton telling us we don't know a recovery when it's staring us in the face:

Former President Bill Clinton said Friday that President Barack Obama is facing a tough re-election race because "impatient" Americans haven't fully recognized an economy on the mend.

Campaigning for Obama in Green Bay, Wis., Clinton urged voters to stay the course as more signs of a recovery sink in. Clinton said voters should judge Obama on the past three years, in which private sector job growth has made up for lost ground.

"This shouldn't be a race," Clinton said. "The only reason it is, is because Americans are impatient on things not made before yesterday and they don't understand why the economy is not totally hunky-dory again."

The former president said Obama's difficulty in his race with Republican challenger Mitt Romney is that "people don't feel it yet" even as the unemployment rate ticks down and the manufacturing sector perks up. Clinton said Obama deserves credit for stabilizing a situation that saw the country hemorrhage jobs well into his first year.

"Gov. Romney acts like from the minute the president took his hand off the Bible he was responsible for every lost job," Clinton said.

Everywhere he goes, Romney argues that the tepid recovery is grounds for a change. The shape of the economy consistently tops lists of voter concerns.

The recession ended in 2009. I would say that, given Obama's numbers, the American people have been extraordinarily patient with him. And the idea that the unemployment rate is ticking down is laughable. There are 23 million workers unemployed, working part time who want to work full time, or who are so discouraged that they have quit looking for work.

Isn't it about time we all got a little impatient and kicked Obama out of office?
