Last week’s figures were “upwardly revised” this week? What a surprise — just how many times has that happened in the past four years?

What a surprise — just how many times has that happened in the past four years?Don't remember exactly but it's about the 50th week in a row that it's happened. Each week is underestimated, which makes the next week's "rise" look smaller because it's based on the unwardly revised previous week.

They're spinning the numbers as hard as they can right now to avoid a panic - or hurt Obomas chances of reelection, of course.
