Outrageous: Labor Department May Delay Jobs Report
breitbart.com ^ | 10/29/12 | John Nolte

The U.S. Labor Department on Monday said it hasn’t made a decision yet on whether to delay Friday’s October jobs report, the final reading on the labor market before next week’s federal elections.

A Labor official said the agency will assess the schedule for all its data releases this week when the “weather emergency” is over.

Any excuse will be used to delay a negative jobs report. Wonder if the same would happen with a positive report?

This is doubly outrageous.

The horrendous weather along the east coast this week would HELP the jobs report...government offices closed, people not wanting or not able to venture out to file for unemployment.

If they withhold the jobs report because it is a bad report —DESPITE THIS WEEK BEING IN ESSENCE A MULLIGAN — the jobs report must be absolutely horrendous.

The monthly wrap-up must be able to reveal the truth to every agnostic out there that Keynesian economics does not work and that these Marxists who hide under the term “Keynesian” need to be thrown out on their ear.

This must be the “October Surprise”. It’s the end of the month, the data is in. There is no need to hide it, unless it’s against Obama, therefore, it has to be withheld.

Last thing that I heard is they are going to report the numbers on Friday regardless of the hurricane.

Fe Fi Fo Fope

I smell a whiff of a "rope a dope"--why wouldn't Obama release a report with numbers that he controls?

We're being had.

Labor? It's more like an abortion mill.

Or call it the Kick Back and Relax Dept.

I have talked to sooooooo many people who are breathlessly awaiting the jobs report on Friday to decide who they will vote for on Tuesday.

From this we may conclude that the figures are very bad indeed, unemployment must have gone back up enough where they couldn’t hide it this time, otherwise they would be releasing the figures early.

Delaying a bad report is a lot easier than faking a good report.

With OBSama, and Axlegrease, I'm givin 8 to 5 against that.. If you were those despots, and everything was riding on this outcome, that even the lives of Americans wouldn't stand in the way, oh, and the report was written by folks I had already controlled, would you let a small thing like the truth get in your way??? I don't think so.. OK, I'll go 9 to 5.. LOL

The Secretary of Labor, Hilda Solis, is a California far-leftist and Obama ass-kisser par excellance.

Need I say more?

No doubt they’ll blame a bad report on Hurricane Sandy, and the MSM won’t bother to note that Sandy happened after the data was accumulated.
