The "new normal" under the anti-capitalist clown.

These same journalists, or their ilk, under Bush, were writing about the TERRIBLE economy and high gas prices when jobless claims were lower and fuel was cheaper.

Got bias?

A boat is no longer sinking once it reaches the bottom.

The media lies

Only “jobs” are government jobs in which people do nothing .

50 million people on food stamps

record numbers on disability

as government grows our freedoms disappear one by one, and our opportunity to make money lessens. America used to be the land of opportunity and a jobs machine, now it is becoming a socialist hell hole

this socialist dictator Obama said the Palestinians have a right to their own state, how about us in Louisiana we have a right to have our own state you big eared moron , where we live in freedom and how we want to and not under the oppression of Washington Dc.

Here's another headline they would have used had the Occupant in Chief had an R after his name:

WORKFORCE PARTICIPATION RATE LOWEST SINCE WWII

[stratman1969]

This whole story smells like a steaming pile of cow patties

[Rodm]

Or Rocky and Bullwinkle see “Unemployment is the highest in 70 years.”

[chainsaw]

The number of Americans who applied last week for new unemployment benefits rose. You can stop there and fill in the blank for yourself.

[Texas Eagle]

Great, the Titanic has stopped sinking.

[concerned about politics]

So why do we have about the same number of people out of work as the day oboma took office?
Nothing has changed except the price of everything has about doubled.
Food stamps (begging elitist politicians for food)- 26 million in 2008 increased to 46 million under oboma. Yeah. Things are just peachy.

[denydenydeny]

Because the employment pool is almost an apartheid world divided between the have-jobs and the can’t-get-jobs.

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

You remember the presser when the unemployment rate hit 5%!

You’d have thought that Bush killed the last unicorn or Chenny had shot someone else.

[tsowellfan]

These same journalists, or their ilk, under Bush, were writing about the TERRIBLE economy and high gas prices when jobless claims were lower and fuel was cheaper.

"worst economy since Herbert Hoover" is how they described Bush's 4.7% unemployment rate. Compare the economy before and after Pelosi/Reid won control of Congress back in 2006 and we'll see who it was that really began the destruction of our wonderful economy.

The GOP would have gained control of both houses by now if they focused on this point alone. These facts have never left the lips of John Boehner.

[Seventh_Tiger]

was this part of the early affects of the sequesta? 260K new jobs and declining initial claims?

[Chode]

yeah, right...
