U.S. private-sector employers added 118,000 jobs in November shy of economists' expectations, a report by a payrolls processor showed on Wednesday.

Economists surveyed by Reuters had forecast the ADP National Employment Report would show a gain of 125,000 jobs.

October's private payrolls were revised slightly down to an increase of 157,000 f rom the previously reported 158,000.

Fewer Jobs Than Expected

Sound vaguely like unexpected

October's private payrolls were revised slightly down to an increase of 157,000 f rom the previously reported 1 58,000.

And then there's the very expected.

Whoever’s doing the “expecting” needs to be fired.

0bama voters have not experienced any negative consequences for their 2008 vote, so why not vote for him again.

He and the left have specifically structured policies such that a bad economy doesn’t affect their base.

“0bama voters have not experienced any negative consequences for their 2008 vote, so why not vote for him again.”
Exactly...all by design. I’m afraid the dumbasses that voted for him are about to hit the brick wall when they see what the Douche Cannon has in store for the next four years.

It’s gotta crash. We have to “reset”.

Unfortunately, a crash is exactly what 0bama has in mind.
He has some “plans” for a post-crash fundamental restructuring of America.

Lord Jesus, come quickly!

Yes but in the current vernacular, that word is inoperative and has been replaced by unexpectedgwbushsfault

Where do I get a job as an expert?

I can act shocked when all my predictions are wrong too.

All the numbers we see on every Thursday are ‘adjusted for seasonal activity’.

When someone slips and lets out the UNADJUSTED numbers, like they did yesterday, it is an entirely different picture. Unadjusted new unemployment claims exceeded 498,000, going up over 139,000.

Feds reported 370,000 ‘new claims’—adjusted.

The entire unemployment numbers game is just that—a game. I don’t believe anymore of Obama’s numbers.
