That’s okay.

I round up the numbers 473,000 and 485,000 to mean one half million people.

That’s just me though.

Lets face it, the liberals, because they basically control the media, will spin this and still blame the bad economy on GWB 8 years from now and longer.

When a part of the sector is up, 0 the genius solved it, when a sector is in the tank, it is Bush’s fault.

They control the media, they control the story.

The MSM would write this head differently if Bush was still in office. There’s many ways to lie...

That’s ok, the government will be the prime employer of most of the US in the future. Nobody, no matter how bad they do their jobs, ever gets fired from a “G” job!

That should fix the unemployment numbers but good!

silly socialists!

Is any private business going to expand and ADD jobs with a slew of taxes and regulations on the horizon? I can’t imagine. Perhaps there will come a time when job losses will slow down, but I can’t see any job increases.

yeah, there was a dip sh#t on Fox News whose talking points included the little " Obama inherited this economy from Bush and I'm sorry but that's just a FACT."

Well there you have it. No matter how this turns out, Bush's fault.

Agreed.

This round of layoffs is just the tip of the iceberg.

It’s going to be of very rough ride.
