Gallup condemns Obama's unemployment numbers as a blatant 'lie'‏
Conservative Examiner ^ | February 4, 2015 | Robert Moon

Posted on 02/04/2015 4:48:29 PM PST by aquapub

Gallup CEO Jim Clifton denounced the White House and the news media on Tuesday for wildly misinforming the public on the current unemployment numbers. According to the report, Obama's overtly dishonest and partisan Labor Department has once again published "extremely misleading" figures that deliberately misrepresent the nation's unemployment rate as significantly better off than they are...

Agree completely.

Both parties are completely sold to the people who have no loyalty to America.

Someone will eventually stand up for America. Soon in fact, is my guess.

I sure hope, it is not democrats, who do so first. I really, really hope not.

This article will never see the light of day in the HEARST CORPORATION’S Albany (NY) Times Union.
They think Patty Hearst is still being held by the Symbionese Liberation Army and Obama’s ISIS.

New data from the Fed show that only the top 10 percent of American earners have seen their incomes rise under Obama. The rest of us have taken a pay cut.

Actually I would bet that it would be closer to the top 5 percent of wage earners.

I am in the top 10 percent ($116,000) and I know that my raises in the last 5 years have been 0-3% (and no it was not because of poor performance). That is well below the inflation rate.

Then if we include the new ObamaCare taxes I am certainly in the wage cut category. My insurance deductible when from $1500 to 3500 per person. I consider that a tax used to provide insurance to lower income persons. That is at least potentially $2000 out of my pocket.

I doubt that anyone in America is making more money under Obama with the exception of Obama’s cronies.

Obama is peeing on our leg and telling us it’s raining.

Headline from “The People’s Cube” (highly recommended site.)

“America celebrates zero percent unemployment rate as last employee leaves workforce.”

Remember that public employees (the ones that survived layoffs/cutbacks) aren’t feeling any of the pain us little people are dealing with; while they bemoan being asked to contribute for their health insurance, they are receiving 5% raises to ease the pain (and have consistently received such pay raises annually).

Here in NJ they are our new upper middle class, the only whites still buying homes and having more than one child...

Every time the Kenyan opens his big mouth, it’s a lie. I can’t wait until the freeloaders send Slick Willie’s ho up to the White Hut. It’s her “turn” and she was the one the freeloaders were waiting for. Scum. All of them.

They fall in to that category I mentioned

Obama’s cronies who have done better in the Obama economy.

No echo chamber for news like this, unfortunately.

I don’t see anything improving without a real news network spreading the truth; when the whole cartel reports the propaganda in lock-step, it is difficult to effect change (or win elections).

“The left couldn’t survive on the truth.”

...and a larger and larger part of the electorate loves to hear the songs of utopia that the left sings not to mention projecting on Ms. Palin and other conservatives the stupidity that exists in the skulls of lemming Democrat voters.

IMHO

Nope the bassturd does not even have to open his mouth and he is telling a great big lie. Just watch him.

All he has to do is stand in front of a hot mic in his empty suit and bingo, lie without his lips moving.
