There were only two months on that graph that had actual job growth.  Dec -07 under Bush and Nov-09 under Obama.
 
If the words were reversed and said Job Growth / Job Loss (or was removed entirely) no meaning of the graph would change.
 
Maybe this'll help:

Thanks for the lesson JD. Maybe reality is what throws the graph off. I'm just happy we passed "stimulas" so unemployment wouldn't rise over 8%. Whew, that was close. Thank you Obama
