Pelosi Statement on September Jobs Report
Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement today after the Department of Labor announced that the private sector added 64,000 jobs in September, marking the ninth consecutive month of private sector growth, and totaling 863,000 this year:
“Today's jobs report shows our private sector continues to lead our economic recovery. We lost more than 800,000 private sector jobs the last month of the Bush Administration, but America's business owners and entrepreneurs have added more jobs this year than the Bush Administration and its Republican allies did in eight years. Democrats are moving our country forward, and we will and we must do more to strengthen our economy and put people back to work.
“The American people face a clear choice: Democrats fighting for the middle class or Republicans standing up for special interests. They know Democrats want to ‘Make It in America,’ cut taxes for small business, and create good-paying jobs here at home. Republicans want to protect Wall Street and corporations that ship jobs overseas. Democrats want to cut taxes for the middle class, and Republicans want to give a break to millionaires and billionaires, and blow an even larger hole in our deficit. Democrats will preserve Social Security and Medicare; Republicans promise to privatize and cut benefits.
“Americans can't afford a return to the 'exact same' failed policies that produced the worst recession in generations. We will keep moving forward to create more jobs, growth, and prosperity for our workers and our families.”
They are delusional if they think their b.s. is going to fly out here right now.
The Wicked Witch continues to whistle past the graveyard
Actually, the worst layoffs occurred in January ‘09 as businesses laid off 750,000+ in anticipation of Obama’s inauguration because they wisely knew that this ignoramus had never run anything but his mouth.
I’ve heard high-speed turbines spin less than that...
So in other words, although she has been in charge of the big hammer for four years, it’s still “Bush’s fault”. Nice try Nancy.
The Food Stamp stimulus are now good on the Vegas strip.
Win some bread!!
Today we are sufering through the worst President, worst Speaker and worst Senate Majority Leader ever.
863K jobs gained, over 1M lost. BTW, one question for San Fran Nan—how many of those “gained” jobs were GOVERNMENT jobs?
Wrong, you stark raving lunatic.
Nonfarm payroll employment falls 95,000 (Unemployment rate unchanged at 9.6%)
This woman is crazy. This statement is nothing but lies. If the MSM was doing its job she would be exposed as a liar and a fraud.
Even Pravda would be too embarrassed to print this. This spin is beyond desperate....it’s detached from reality. I imagine Queen Pelosi is feeling her grip on the speaker’s gavel slipping...
Yeah, 'losing' is 'leading.'
What a deranged witch.
Add 800,000 jobs and the unemployment rate goes from 9.3 to 10.1. Sounds like fuzzy math to me.
I think you mean third in line, right after our glorious and completely governmentally-informed Vice President.
What're you gonna believe Nazi Pelousy or your lyin' eyes.........
I guess she has to put the best face possible on this mess but her incessant bleating about the Bush administration is now an embarrassingly transparent effort to shift responsibility for her own utter failure onto the only convenient scapegoat she can, with her limited intellect and imagination, come up with. The leftist congress in league with the lefist occupant of the White House have advanced policies and taken actions that have not done a thing to improve the lot of the millions of unemployed. Instead they have created such fear and anxiety over what will happen next that most private sector companies have either restrained their hiring or refrained from hiring at all because they don’t know if they will wind up laying off even more people as taxes rise and regulation surges to strangle free enterprise and further erode an already very weak economy.
The really dangerous thing about committed leftists is that they are so married to their favored fantasies that they will never admit these don’t work or make things worse. They could be forgiven if they tried something, failed, and then tried something different to try and get things right. But they refuse to do this and insist on just pushing even more of the same failed idiocy even in the face of obvious failure.
ADP says the private sector LOST 39,000 Jobs in September!!!
Why is there a 100,000+ gap between the two???
