Stunning comment from one of he most successful CEOs in American history. Can’t wait to see the ObamaMedia drones tell us that the great Jack Welch is a tinfoil hat crazy. This should be fun...let’s press Jack to tell us more about just how Obama’s minions could have pulled this off.

Here's the Tweet...

No worries. They will be adjusted WORSE just after the election. These reports always get changed later.

ADP report: increase seems more dramatic because of revisions downward in 2 previous months

"Employment in the U.S. nonfarm private business sector increased by 162,000 from August to September, on a seasonally adjusted basis.

The estimated gains in previous months were revised lower: the July increase was reduced by 17,000 to an increase of 156,000, while the August increase was reduced by 12,000 to an increase of 189,000.

Employment in the private, service-providing sector expanded 144,000 in September, down from 175,000 in August. Employment in the private, goods-producing sector added 18,000 jobs in September. Manufacturing employment rose 4,000, while construction employment rose 10,000, the strongest since March when mild winter weather was boosting construction activity. The financial services sector added 7,000 jobs in September, marking the fourteenth consecutive monthly gain.

The lib media is already mocking Welch as some cellar dwelling tin foil hat wearer - not one of America’s most successful CEOs.

It’s amazing to witness.

Let’s hope there’s a brave whistle blower at BLS.

BTW - That 4th ‘retweeter’ icon (Franklin) is me... LOL!

If they will do this with the Department of Labor and Statistics, they will outright steal the election.

They have no fear or shame. How do we stop them?

The Romney camp needs to dismiss these numbers as Chicago Math. They must not accept the data, period.

[FreeAtlanta]

All the comments replying to his tweet that I could find attacked him as a conspiracy theorist. The left is out of control. The people responding to him are probably paid operatives or fake tweeters. Axelrod is in full swing.

“Chicago Math” - I like it.

The left will beclown themselves trying to say this phrase is racist.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Didn’t catch the name on ABC Radio News who said that this kind of drop would have required a swing in employement not seen in 30 years.

“The Romney camp needs to dismiss these numbers as Chicago Math. They must not accept the data, period.”

Just cite the U-6 number, still at 14.7%

I agree.
Imagine an ad that hits emotionally...FEEL

“Which feels right to you, do you feel like unemployment is 7.8% or 14.7%...I think you know the right answer...what it feels like to you...well, Paul Ryan and I aim to change that feeling to what a real recovery feels like”...

See how many times FEEL is used...I think that would work!

[musicman]

Is THIS why O's administration
BEGGED the defense contractors to WAIT
on the HUGE number of jobs to be cut
with the Jan13 cuts to go into place
so as NOT to bring this number
into "correct" territory???

[socialism_stinX]

It doesn’t take a big conspiracy to rig the jobs numbers. All it takes is a few people in key positions in the administration. If you think Welch doesn’t have a strong factual basis for this accusation, then you don’t know Jack.

How do we stop them?

Rule 308.
Heb 9:22 [ESV] -"Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins."

[DocRock]

It’s not a conspiracy when it’s true...

[montag813]

It doesn’t take a big conspiracy to rig the jobs numbers.

The rate is simply based on a SURVEY...a PHONE POLL of "households". And as we know, polls are ALWAYS totally accurate....riiiight?

Also, the survey takers are ALL Hilda Solis' employees.
