Like I've been saying all along, the numbers have been jimmied by the economists to make Bush look bad: Clark said the Missouri error was made by an analyst who did not count teachers as employed over the summer. The analyst has been reporting figures that way for several years, so that is likely to cause further revisions of past employment data, he said.

Labor analysts often pay closer attention to 12-month employment fluctuations, because they give a broader picture of job-growth trends - - - - -. Too bad that our "professional" pundits don't try to look at the big picture, instead of breathlessly focusing on today versus yesterday.
