It’s becoming more and more difficult to find meaning in any of these stories. Expected 350,000, then it was actually 360,000, revised to 363,000, which makes 340,000 a drop, when the number is 345,000 next week, that’ll be a drop because this week’s number will be revised to 350,000.

Lost in all this number gymnastics is the fact that these are NEW claims of unemployment.

Let’s bring in several million illegal aliens!”

Please contact your Congressman or woman and tell them to vote against the vile Amnesty Bill!

Whether it is 340K or 360K it doesn’t matter — it is still a large number EVERY WEEK.
