YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry told voters from Ohio's rust belt on Tuesday that President Bush's record on job creation should be described as "mission not accomplished."

The charge came four days before the May 1 anniversary of Bush's declaration of an end to major combat operations in Iraq. The president made the announcement aboard an aircraft carrier bearing a banner that read "Mission Accomplished." Critics derided the banner and the declaration after U.S. casualties mounted.

Kerry, in the middle of a three-day bus tour of industrial states, said manufacturing jobs have not been created during a single month of Bush's presidency. Instead, he said, the economic focus of the administration has been on extending tax cuts for the wealthy.

"George Bush has been busy clearing brush, and I think we need a president who creates jobs," Kerry said, a shot at the amount of time the president spends at his Texas ranch.
