BREAKING -- The unemployment rate in June rose to 9.2 percent, the government reported Friday morning, as the economy added just 18,000.

President Obama will speak about the new data in the Rose Garden at 10:35 a.m., the White House says.

You may be on to something. Obama and the Dems are going to blame the Reps one way or another for his failed recovery. The Dems may actually want an impasse on August 2 so they can use that as an excuse. Schumer has already been saying the Reps don’t want a recovery so they can win next November.

The b*astard should be announcing his resignation (can a usurper resign?) and his whole cabinet dismissed - including his marxist czars!

Forget the unemployed, we should feel sorry for poor Obama, who canceled his vacation in Montana... (/sarc)

He’ll probably start talking about another stimulus package and how if he doesn’t do it the whole world will blow up and the universe will be affected. And if that happens it’ll be all the republican’s fault.

He’s going to tell us the Republican refusal to raise the debt limit and taxes is taking it’s toll on the economy.

I saw on Drudge where he’s cancelled the weekend vacation trip to Montana. Could it be the doofus has finally gotten a clue??

One can always dream....

18,000 plus. I’ve heard/read that 150,000 ~ 250,000 a month are needed just to keep up with the increase of people entering the work force. So lets use the low number. that means we’re another 132,000 in the hole.

Obama is scheduled to speak at 10:30, but he won’t show up until at least 10:45.

Meanwhile, the LAST space shuttle launch is slated to take off at 11:30.

He's admitting he's completely clueless about basic economics and resigning?

More likely announcing his July golf schedule and trying to blame Bush for the "unexpected" unemployment number.

LOL I will bet he is late as always. Ole Daley is writing his speech as we speak and Obama will sound like an idiotic robot.There is nothing of substance he can say but that he gave free money to more people if they fill out a zillion apps for mortgage assistance if they have no jobs. But the only ones getting the free money are the ones that get all of the other free money and are sitting permanently watching their free 73 inch TV with a zillion frozen lobsters and steaks in the freezer; as they get a fast line on the funding; white or non illegals need not apply.

9.2 unemployment my ass! It is closer to 20 and the majority of those unemployed now will not get another job. But, that is what the majority of those that voted for in 2006 when they elected the Democrats and in 2008 when they elected the Democrats.

The only silver lining to the otherwise black cloud is that those who inflicted obama and the Democrats on me will get to share the joy [misery]they created.

He inherited this from Bush. It was even worse than even he the genius thought. These were time bombs planted by Bush. None of this is his fault. The only thing we need to do is tax the rich and all will be well. We can cut spending in ten years but not right now. Plus some new lies.

He’s going to say this is why the republicans need to make a budget deal.

Pretty strange he is now forced to make speeches to address his catastrophes, oh yes he’ll also mention Bin Laden.

"It's the Evil_Repubilcans'/George_Bush's fault! Let me be clear, we need to print up another gajillion dollars so people don't have to work or pay their bills. Yeah that'll do it. Peace out my brothers, tee time is 11:30. I'm outta here..."

...Or something like that. Yawn
