And more depressing news: http://www.examiner.com/x-3773.....nationally

If I can find this stuff with a quick Google search, so can at least HALF of the US. However, those in the government have a different search engine which only gives links to fairy-pooftah-imagining websites.

And some vital stats:

http://www.bls.gov/web/laumstrk.htm

Note: 31 are above 8%, 20 are above 9%, 16 are above 10%, 7 are above 11%, 4 are above 12 and one is above 15%.

Well beyond half the nation’s states are above the Obama-proclaimed “max” that UE would rise to. (Biden: “we simply mis-read it)

Obama has never learned the trick about predicting results. Most adults have learned not to say things like that, when (ahem) all the facts aren’t in yet.

Most telling are the states above 9%….almost half the nation.

Meanwhile, the “get-a-clue” crew, Pelosi, Reid, etc….still say that jobs are being created or “saved”. How do you stat a “saved” job? I really don’t have a formula for that.

Where are the stats for the number of green jobs produced? Are there any? I think not.

I have no expertise in any of these areas but boy, don’t piss on my boots and tell me it’s rainin’.

I believe the governors of Obamas’ 57 states are getting together to hammer this out.

And yet once again the question must be asked, What happened to the 4.5 million jobs that the stimulus was supposed to create?

Hey Liberals, reality sucks doesn’t it?

Pie in sky, starry-eyed retards. Everything the Won has said is 180 degrees out of phase with reality and these morons are just catching on. Black is white, up is down, Pelosi is attractive, ugh! Sure glad by passing the Porkulus bill it kept unemployment under 8%. Oops, see above.

Liberalism rots the brain!

End of Rant. I feel much better, now where is that bottle of Wild Turkey?

Pelosi was right! 500 million Americans are losing their jobs every month since we didn’t pass the FIRST stimulus bill! Uh, oops, I might have a detail or two wrong there. (If anyone feels I need to add a parenthetical “dripping sarcasm” to such posts, kindly so note)

LD…You don’t understand…I distinctly remember him saying it will be a “jobless” recovery. So everything is going to be just fine! See? Its all OK now. (sarc)

I really do think he thinks the American people are stupid. I pray this is all beginning to crumble and he falls hard!

How about this piece of instant revisionism:

“though the increase was mostly due to seasonal distortions”

“rose by 25,000 to a seasonally adjusted 584,000, above analysts’ estimates”

Which is it? They go on again to blame ‘seasonal distortions’:

“The increase in initial claims last week was mostly due to seasonal distortions”

So if the numbers have been seasonally adjusted, how is the increase due to seasonal distortions?

What a bunch of moonbats.

How about 384,000 Google hits for the exact phrase…

“The recession, which began in December 2007″

At what stage does it change from propaganda to brainwashing?
