Key phrase:

Payroll employment has declined by 2.6 million in the past 4 months.

The total number of lost jobs since the recession started in December of 2007 is 4.4 million....

Of those 4.4 million, 2.6 million have been lost since November 2008--which just happens to coincide with the election of Barack Hussein Obama!

Do you think this dirty little secret will see the light of day and analysis in the LameStream Media?? Do you think anyone in the sycophant press will have the GUTS to point out MORE JOBS HAVE BEEN LOST SINCE OBAMA WAS ELECTED than in the previous 11 months??????????

Let's see.

From the Sun Financial, this chart:

Since the recession began in December 2007, more than 4.4 million workers lost their jobs, with more than half of the job losses occurred in the past four months

Note the ‘takeoff’ point on that unemployment chart. It coincides with our congress-critters passing the 2006 Pension Relief Act. That was the second leg of the 4-legged stool of this designer(Congress) depression...guaranteed to keep the Welfare State Enabler Party in power for the next 50 years. (the other 3 legs were 1. cancelling the ‘uptick’ rule, July 6, 2007; 2. At that time non-enforcement by the SEC of ‘failure to deliver’ short shares; and 3.Bear Market of 2000 inspired Mark-to-Market accounting rules (FASB) for ‘toxic assets’ was the first leg... spurring the bubble, then bear raids on banks).

As long as the press keeps taking those striking pictures of Hillary in her pant suit attire...all will be fine.

As long as there are 3 million people still employed then Obama can still claim to have saved 3 million jobs. Lots of wiggle room he gave himself!

Obama is an economic illiterate.

Companies are freaking out over Obama’s confiscation plans.
