Tomorrow in MSM:
“The pace of President Obama’s continued economic recovery slowed very slightly last month but experts expect a continued robust upswing in the months ahead.
Oh, and Rush Limbaugh is a poopie-head”

It's almost as if a bunch of folks were hired for low-wage clerical jobs immediately before Christmas and dumped immediately afterwards.

Who saw that comin'!!!??? </sarcasm>

Shouldn’t the TRUE unemployment be reading around 21% or so?

imagine , just imagine if we had a republican on the white house the MSM would be telling the real figures for this and how many have left the work force etc but alas the MSM does what the MSM always does and that is cover for their messiah and then have the left wing operatives out on the TV saying there is no bias much like saying there are no double standards when women on the right are put down by the left.

WI has a rate of 6.9% and absolutely zero of the jobs here are due to oil boom employment...I bet if he asked Scott Walker nicely, he’d tell him how to do it...

I doubt it... they'll save that for October 2012.

A government in bed with demo'rats that has complete free rein over the total number in the job force, and varies that number from month to month, can literally dictate that the unemployment rate be A% in March, B% in April, and then be Z% in October.

Boy that G.W. Bush sure is powerful. He is still raising the unemployment rate after Obama has been in office over 3 years now. And even after Obama has spent 5 trillion in deficit spending to stimulate the economy.
