Republicans, DO NOT FLINCH on the debt ceiling. After that, Get rid of Obamacare.

I think these numbers April 19,000, May 25,000, June 18,000 are terrible “recovery” numbers and might very well be a game changer. How with terrible numbers like this can the US gov continue it’s huge borrow and spend policy? The day gov goes broke just got a little closer.

The U-6 jumped to 16.2% from 15.8% (seasonally adjusted). The non-seasonally adjusted number rose to 16.4% (from 15.4%). No way to spin that but bad...

thanks, 57k in private is not all the great either.

I bet he starts a “underground employment” meme.
A rporter ( stooge) will ask about the difference between the report yesterday and today’s numbers.
He’ll say many people are working under the table.

And there is a big and growing movement towards “under the table” work. But that also is his fault!
Though the media will help him blame Bush, somehow.

LINK: President Obama’s senior political adviser David Plouffe said Wednesday that people won’t vote in 2012 based on the unemployment rate.

What's the sound of wet cow s**t hitting the ground? "Plouffe!"

And the EPA sets new down-wind policies on emissions that will doom the coal-electric industry. Obama is making us more dependent on foreign oil and destroying energy sector jobs by the thousands.

He is trying to fight 3 wars with his foot out the door of each one of them.

He is destroying the American family, the American military, and the American economy.

Conservatives will come together early behind one candidate WHO CAN WIN, or we are looking at 5 more years of destructive policies.

Everything Obama must be impeached. Obama ain’t working.

Just. Wow. Barry says he "should have prepared" the American people for how long it was going to take to get things turned around.

The amazing thing is people still believe what Barry says.

zerO will never understand that companies are not going to hire when they don’t know what is coming next from him and the democRats. He will never restore confidence and therefore unemployment will remain high until he is gone.

His 10:30 AM speech:
“Public’s fault. They should spend more. Not saving more for their retirements to compensate for the total collapse of their main asset their home value due to decades of Rat interventionist policies. .... um, what did I just say - back up that teleprompter a bit, ...back it up...”

The callers on the KLBJ morning show are PO'ed at ( . ) this morning. There have been one or two callers that say it is all the Republicans' fault because they stopped his agenda. Of course, they hang up before the hosts can ask them to prove any of their dim talking points.

One caller said he had never voted for a DUmmie before and ( . ) was his ever first (d) vote.

DUH!

Problem is that he is taking all of us with him. A year and a half from now, crawling out may be a long time coming.
