(Reuters) - New U.S. claims for unemployment benefits rose more than expected last week, according to a government report on Thursday that suggested hiring in August was steady but not robust.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits increased 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 408,000, the Labor Department said.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast claims rising to 400,000. The prior week’s figure was revised up to 399,000 from the previously reported 395,000.

So, that dip under 400k WAS a blip. No surpise that the number was REVISED UP.

"Economists polled ..."
I wondered how Reuters got their numbers -- they use a consensus of economists rather than actual data, apparently. Hey, if it was good enough for global
cooling warming climate change ...

It’s obviously the Tea party’s fault. This happened because of the debt ceiling negotiations. That excuse should work at least until the end of the year. Well, I guess Bush is happy he’s off the hook for being blamed for everything.

Actually, it was not July monthly jobless claims, it was last week’s jobless claims. I forget we are running at almost one and three quarters million jobs lost per month.

Obama just doesn’t seem to get it. When you sweep the dirt under the rug it just turns up later in a larger lump under another part of the rug.
