That pesky little “unexpected” raises its ugly head AGAIN in the Obambi economy.

There are two things you can count on with the unemployment statistics; any rise is “unexpected” (totally undue to anything the Administration does in its economic policies) and the prior week’s “good” numbers are revised Upward.

Have you ever hit exactly on the mark with your weekly estimate? It's either either higher than expected or lower--rarely right on the nose ("as expected"). During W, it was also "unexpected"...but the key difference is that now, the unexpecteds are usually in one direction--that they were optimistic.

I’ve been following this crap for over 2 years and it’s always unexpected and it’s always been revised even lower after a couple of weeks...

Isn't that what Neville Chamberlain said, too?

Reuters needs to "poll" some "economists" who live in "Real Ville."
