Winter storms to distort US jobless figures (HUH?)

I remember around 2004 give or take a bit, they used to jump on GW because we only created 300,000 jobs in one month, less that expected they said.

I believe Obama`s labor dept is fixing the numbers anyway! Prez Bush could not do that because the career gov employees in Washington are all Dems.

Around Minnesota we actual hire more people because we try to move the snow out of the way to get to work.

Everyone gets to work, too, eventually, and if they don’t, the boss can’t get there either. No one loses their job.

I’m skeptical.

Every time they warn that the unemployment numbers are going to be bad, they “unexpectedly” show up better. This has happened at least three times already.

I’ll just keep my powder dry.

At some point they won’t be able to hide how bad it is anymore.

..yeah, and in a month or two flowers will be distorting the job numbers

That might work with democrats but for those of us who do think, just how can this be? Wouldn’t the rate go down because people couldn’t get in to apply?

Obama’s big snow job.

That's what is keeping unemployment as high as it is.

Not a soul trusts Obama or anything he says or does.

Obama almost makes Pelosi look credible by comparison.

No one loses their job.

Good system. Much better than the current marxist-lite job killing machine.

[phormer phrog phlyer]

Using this logic, when the weather is good unemployment should fall.

These idiots make me dizzier than riding in a centrifuge after shooting a dozen Jager Bombs. It's GLOBAL WARMING'S fault, It's BUSH'S fault, It the RECORD SNOWFALL'S fault, it's SAN ANDREAS fault.

IT'S GALLING
