U.S. weekly jobless claims rise unexpectedly (Unexpectedly)
Chicago Tribune ^ | September 11, 2014 | Chicago Tribune

Posted on 09/11/2014 7:07:37 AM PDT by Cringing Negativism Network

The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly rose last week, but that probably does not signal a material shift in labor market conditions as claims remain near their pre-recession levels.

I can’t wait to turn on the radio on the way to work today and hear how this is good news and proves that the economy is booming. Their spin makes me dizzy.

As predicted by just about everyone, jobless claims rose unexpectedly.

The cult of progressivism compels them to keep believing that marxist/socialism will one day work if only the right guy implements it...statistics and facts be damned! We are only 6 years into this marxist transformation...I’m sure it will start working soon.

Beware! Obama is cooking the books with the bad news now so that the data around election time looks great. He can’t make the bad numbers go away, but he can move up the bad numbers so they aren’t there around election time.

Yahoo Finance posted the following Reuters spin this morning:

“U.S. jobless claims rise, but firming labor market trend intact”.

We are nearing the end of Recovery Summer 5.0 that Obama and Biden promised us five years ago. One of the biggest lies of all time.

LOL! There ya go. That’s what I’m talking about. The people who regurgitate this stuff for the regime really need to get out more often and look around at what’s going on down on Main Street.

Who is the credible source for this personal opinion? Apparently the reporter injected communist spin into the opening line. Why no self-esteem boosting vanity byline this time?

Obama doesn’t expect there to be any muslims in Islamic State either.

Cultural Marxism II... control what is heard, and what is allowed to be said, and the state can control the entire population as ruthlessly as they wish.

The most laughable part is not the BOGUS adjustment for seasonal workers, as the raw numbers show close to 250,000 new claims. The biggest joke is the 6.1% unemployment rate. Given that the participation rate is lower than at anytime in history, we should be at ‘full employment’ any day now!
