The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Thursday released an early look at its annual “benchmark revision” of its payroll data. When the preliminary revisions become final early next year, the official data should show that 386,000 more Americans were working in March than previously believed. The private sector did even better, adding 453,000 jobs versus previous estimates.
... There was one symbolic significance to the revision: If the preliminary figures hold, they would suggest that more Americans are now working than when President Obama took office. That doesn’t mean much for the broader economy — there are still more than 4 million fewer Americans working today than before the recession began — but it could carry political weight heading into the November presidential election.
Sure enough, Alan Krueger, chairman of President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers, took to the White House blog today to tout the revision as another sign that the economy is improving. Less positive for Mr. Obama: the downward revision to second-quarter gross domestic product, which showed the economy grew more slowly earlier this year than previously believed.

Liars figure......
Obama is frantic. You cannot overlook 300,000+ jobs.
It’s a lie.

These students of Goebbels know you have to tell a giant whopper to be believed. It should have been 50 million more jobs than previously thought.
These people really arent even trying anymore.
Sure there was 400k...liars.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics, ie, Obama’s propaganda arm.
So the economy falters heading to the home stretch (May-Sep), making Team Obama realize it will head into November with a net negative job record... and Presto!
They revise it to show Obama now in the black.
BS!!!
WOO-HOO! Happy days are here again! Every year should be an election year. That way there’d be no end to the daily emesis of “good news” as November comes around.
I believe the HUGE MAJORITY were part time at minimum wage.
Prove it... I WANT THEIR ****ING NAMES!
LLS
A good thing these people will not be counting votes this Nov.
No, wait.......
They probably combed the police logs for prostitution busts and then decided “that’s a job”...
Part-time minimum wage jobs for ALL THE YOUNG ILLEGAL ALIENS COMING ACROSS THE BORDER BECAUSE OF OBAMA’S ILLEGAL AMNESTY PROGRAM.
Are they counting unemployed dead people too?
What are these jobs? Why were they missed? Who is responsible for the miscalculations? Has whoever is responsible for the mistake been fired? This is a huge mistake and someone must be held accountable for failing to do their job properly. This indicates gross negligence at BLS. Why did it take so long to find this out?
Are we supposed to believe this BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
