Of course those of us that follow this closely have known that unemployment has never been below 8% since TOTUS took office but the books were cooked in the last few months to facilitate his reelection. Well now he is freed from having to run for office and can now show us what his idea of flexibility will give the country. And those that voted for him in droves will be hurt the most and I longer have an ounce of sympathy for them.
You gave us four more years of this pathetic failure so now you own it.......enjoy eating that crap pie........

Ever wonder why the Big Boss built his house on a hill? Or, why the wise man builds above grade?
LakePlumber can tell you quickly. Crap flows DOWNHILL. Always. And the faster it flows, the deeper it gets. And, the very suckers who support Big O are going to be the first ones to swim in the flood. And they will have no clue why they are stinking.

Dang, he won the election...so why is he still "cooking the books"????
Lookin like the eatin will be a big plate crow by the rightwing nutjobs nationwide!!
Any way you cut it there are more than 1,000,000 people getting pay checks today that weren't 3 years ago. Yeah, yeah...I know...the Sept and Oct numbers were adjusted down by 47,000...but wait, over 36,000 of those were previously unreported lazy and sfifless GUVMENT workers (the "takers") having their jobs cut!! Ain't that supposed to be good news?

Archie, do you realize we need more jobs than that just to keep up with population growth? You are such and ignoramus when it comes to economics. Did you also realize that 75% of the jobs created in the last five months were govt jobs? I know the private sector is such a bother to you left wing nuts but this news isn't good, it is downright bad.
Crawl back into your left wing nut hole and come back when you have something real to crow about. Honestly, how do you live with yourself?

Read the BLS report a little closer and you will find the little noticed fact that 350K people dropped out of the labor force just last month. Magic, unemployment drops and happy days are here again. How can anyone look at this chart and come to the conclusion that Obama's policys are working for middle class America. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid.

He is impervious to facts and logic. No matter how disastrous TOTUS is for this country he will support him and drive by with any glimmer of good news, even if he gets it all wrong. You see to Archie and the rest of the left wing nuts, people giving up hope of ever finding a job is a small price to pay if it can be usefully spun by the sycophantic govt media to make their messiah look good. Heck, those folks ought to be grateful for the "blessing" to have lost all hope in finding a job if ignoramus's like Archie can feel better about his choice.
I do wonder if he is furiously searching pmsnBS or HuffnPuff post for some way to respond to the truth of these numbers or if his drive by posts are like self abuse. Do it every once in a while to make yourself feel good even if it ain't the real thing.
Hey, how bout them Stillers? Can't believe after turning the ball over 8 times and losing to the Browns that they come back and beat the Ravens. Was an enjoyable game to watch and my only hope is that Art Modell, wherever he is, was forced to watch.:-)

MM, you are (as always) so full of it your eyeballs are brown! I defy you to produce verifiable evidence that 75% of the jobs produced in the last 5 months are government jobs. As is typical when you and your followers make some outrageous claim I will not be holding my breath!! It is a FACT that the government sector continues to shed job month after month while the private sector has gained jobs every single month far over 3 years now. AND (I know you really really hate this) THERE ARE MORE THAN 1,000,000 MORE PEOPLE PICKING UP A CHECK TODAY THAN THER WERE 3 YEARS AGO. To be sure gaining 146,000 is not as good as, those of us who actually want the economy to boom, would hope to see, but it is one he// of a lot better than losing 750,000 a month as was the most recent tradition when those who think like you called the shots (YOU ARE CORRECT...I AM BLAMING THE MAN I STUPIDLY VOTED FOR IN 2004). Now kindly stick your head back in the sand where it belongs.

Even GF will tell you that I rarely make an error on a fact. It does happen, but rarely. The number came from the Bureau of Labor Statistics you dimwit. Which in case you didnt know is a government agency itself.
Here is a piece referring to this little inconvenient factoid. http://www.bizpacreview.com/2012/12/07/labor-report-73-percent-new-jobs-created-in-last-5-months-are-government-10540 But if you have the intellectual curiosity you might also spend some time on the BLS website. Maybe you will learn something although I doubt it......invincible ignorance is....well...invincinble...and you are the poster child.
You know Archie, one would think you would grow tired of being wrong all the time but you seem to have an unlimited ability to make an abject fool of yourself. Now tell me Archibald, who is full of the brown stuff and who has their head stuck up where?!?!? Because it isn't me.
Not only are you ignorant but you are lazy to boot. At a minimum before you challenge me on something you should at least have a modicum of intellectual curiosity and look and see if I am wrong before you humiliate yourself. Oh, and if you want I can destroy your stupid million new jobs statement. You are such a fool to believe what you read on the websites you frequent. Here's a hint, examine the number of people in the last four years that have left the job market altogether. Look at the labor participation rate compared to when TOTUS took office. Count the numbers. Only a left wing nut would celebrate adding a million jobs while many more millions give up ever finding a job. Look at the U6 numbers and let me know what you think now...if you have even a shred of intellectual honesty, which I seriously doubt.
Archibald, you are the poster child for what our education system has done to the ability of our citizens to think critically and logically. You are a parody of a parody.

I would take great joy in humiliating people like Archibald but they can and do vote. Makes you want to go back to a literacy test before someone can vote but that horse has left the barn and we are stuck with TOTUS as a result. Its no wonder I hold left wing nuts like Archie in such low regard. At least GF has the intellectual curiosity to check something before he posts a rant.....Archie has no such ability or desire.

Nice try...but biased interpretations (misinterpretation?) of "statistics" from a proudly biased source is not VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE!!.. Each month the BLS, an unbiased source whether you conspiracy nuts believe it or not, gives the stats that matter...the net gain in non-farm jobs from both public and private sector and almost every month for the last 37 months the public sector has decreased and the private sector increased. Now on a less frequent basis the BLS will present estimates of the total number of jobs in each sector at that moment in time. The two sets of statistics are NOT directly related. Now for your arithmetic lesson...explain how if the public sector jobs decreased in at 4 of the last 5 months (reference BLS not CNS) while the private sector jobs increased, how is it mathematically possible for the public sector to make up 73% of the new jobs? Well, actually it is "possible" but very very unlikely and I assure you that over the last 5 months that unlikely event did not occur. Get CNS to explain it to you!

OK nut cases here it is from the Bureau of Labor Statistics* (Have more to do than sit around with and argue with idiots in blinders all day so only include 3 months but you get the gist)
BLS Employment Situation Reports (non-farm employment changes)
Sept 2012 (revised Dec 7 2012) tot +132,000/ Gov't +10,000/ Private +122,000
Oct 2012 (revised Dec 7,2012) tot +138,000/ Gov't -51,000/ Private +189,000
Nov 2012 (estimate Dec 7,2012) tot +146,000/ Gov't -1,000/ Private +147,000
3 month totals +416,000/ -42,000/ +458,000
* I know MM et al trust only FAUX News and would never stoop to go to a "Government" site for facts (the truth), but the sane people in America give the benefit of the doubt to BLS over Hannity any day!

Certainly not by the likes of you!! See my post from BLS (JUST THE FACTS)
MM you are the lazy and "uninformed" leader of this rag-tag army of the "misinformed". Please continue to refuse to let facts interfere with your trip to oblivion. My expectation and hope is that your followers and fellow travelers will eventually begin to see you for the fraud you are and repent.
PS: How about YOU begin to "check" something before you post. Do you claim that CNS is more to be trusted for the facts than BLS? Wait...let me guess. You never disappoint me and never fail to prove my case.

Methinks it is apples and oranges but I can't figure out exactly why. Went to BLS and the author's numbers are correct and his math is correct. And yet BLS does not show the net increase in govt jobs in the report Archie referenced. According to the total employment numbers from June govt jobs did indeed account for 73% of the total change since June. But that does not jibe with the numbers Archie found at BLS that describes the change on a month by month basis.
Archie gets partial credit for stumping me on this apparent contradiction. If the BLS total employment numbers represent something other than what they seem to be then Archie will have proven that in fact even a blind squirrel does find an acorn every now and then. If the author and my interpretation of the numbers end up being wrong then Archie has something else to crow about.....oh wait a second, he has already crowed even though he has not explained the discrepancy between the numbers, just found ones he likes and says they are more true.
No more time to sort this out today as I have to get my house ready for my office Christmas party. And yes, it is a Christmas party and everyone is invited, Jews, Muslims, agnostics, atheists, Mormans, etc., but it is still a Christmas party. Oh sorry, I forgot Kwanza.....
