Yep... Yappers all right!
I wonder if Nancy understands that while employment rolls may be down, the unemployment rate is flat. Perhaps people are retiring? It is the start of the baby boomer wave.
Retirees will drop your employment rolls but not add to the unemployment stats. I guess good old Nancy wants to see grandpa and grandma working until their 90!
Is that why the unemployment rate is down to 5% from 5.1% and the Dow is up?
The largest employer, the Federal Government is hiring in record numbers. What’s her problem?
By JEANNINE AVERSA, AP Economics Writer 9 minutes agoWASHINGTON - Employers cut far fewer jobs in April than in recent months and the unemployment rate dropped to 5 percent, a better-than-expected showing that nonetheless reveals strains in the nation's labor market.
For the fourth month in a row, the economy lost jobs, the Labor Department reported Friday. But in April the losses totaled 20,000, an improvement from the 81,000 reductions in payrolls logged in March. Job losses for both February and March turned out to be a bit deeper than previously reported.
The latest snapshot of the nationwide employment conditions while clearly still weak was better than many economists were anticipating. They were bracing for job cuts of 75,000 and for the unemployment rate to climb to 5.2 percent.
Hey Pelosi.
Don't let facts get in the way of a good rant.
You bitch.
But don’t forget that Congress has time for 1000/a month leased cars and exotic food in the Congressional Kitchen.
Can I question her patriotism?
......Perhaps people are retiring.....
Most are from failing newspapers and tv stations
The only thing that would make Peligro happier is for all the Military in the middle East to be killed and America to lose the entire middle East to the Islamofascist scum.
What is this woman thinking or smoking? Who the hell elected her and what were they smoking?
I’d love to see the treason and sedition laws enforced in this country.
Hey Pelosi: Study the USSR’s various Five-year plans to get their economy on track. You’ll find many useful ideas in those old documents.
Yo Nancy. You do realize that the logical cause of this has been your Democrat controlled Congress? Prior to you Democrats taking Congress we had record employment levels. Rather then whine and yap, maybe you best get off your butts in Congress and actually try DOING something for a change.
Now that's just funny! ROFL!
Energy: Gas prices are at a record $3.62 a gallon and the price of a barrel of oil spiked to a record $120 this week.”
The economy has tanked since Nancy and the Dems took over. A coinkydink? I don’t think so.
Where’s your plan to reduce gas prices that you promised Nancy? Huh?
Uhhh - aren’t the Democrats in charge of Congress?
What's worse is that McCain is trying to distance himself from Bush and he is also blaming the President. The result is that approval rates for Republicans are tanking all over the place.
Sorry b***h. What about the people that did NOT sign a ARM that was a financial time bomb? What about the folks that are fighting to save enough money to buy their FIRST house the right way? She is going to tax them to bail out the stupid ones.
Here is a thought. Let the stupid ones loose the house and help the smart ones that are saving up a reasonable down payment buy it with a mortgage they can afford.
Pretty radical, huh Nancypants?
State of the Bush Economy?.........State of the Bush-Pelosi-Reid Economy.............
I hear that Exxon is going to start showing porno movies on their gas pumps. That way, we can watch someone getting screwed at the same time we are!
