Unemployment has been going up for 4 years and they keep projecting it will go down, year after year, while anybody who works, manufactures, knows that people are spending less...
WTF!

They want Americans to bail out Europe. we did in WWI and WWII and now they want hardworking americans to pay for retired workers in europe.

We should not do the 50% reduction by writing off debt or give them any money.

That is why they are saying our economy is in trouble due to them and it is not unless we bail them out - they will never pay it back.

Waiting for the ‘emergency’ measure to give away another 20 or so trillion so as to make things look good throughout the Christmas season.

Then come January it’s the same old, same old...

Restoring employment is not rocket science. We just have to make the products we consume instead of importing them. It’s not taxes, regulations, unions or the other smoke screens. Green jobs and lower taxes are election placebos. We’ve had prosperity with higher taxes and stronger unions.

It’s the the worldwide search for the cheapest labor, child, slave or otherwise where pollution and worker safety raise no concern. The end result will be American citizens working at 3rd world labor rates with more and more dependency on the government for stamps, welfare and health care with voting to match.

Even in an elections year, they can no longer hide this or play with the numbers...Too many people have been hammered.

Everyone knows the economy has been decimated, with tens of millions out of work, or had their hours/benefits slashed and reduced.

“Can’t spin this one, Politico...”

Sure they can. They are lowering it now to blame all of the lower growth projections on Europe.

They don’t have to spin it. It clearly signals Obama’s talking points moving forward.

Growth here will slow and unemployment will rise but it is NOT due to his policies but because of problems in Europe.

Then he will tell us all how much WORSE it would be had he not instituted the policies as he had. The same fools who fainted at his every word in 2008 and the media (I know, same thing) will eat it up.

Where are all of the talking heads that should be explaining that the "rosy" budget deficit numbers that were presented over the past two years were dependent upon 3.5% growth in the GDP?

Reported growth of 1%, with contraction in reality, is disastrous for the federal revenue projections. Who is talking about this?

Crickets........

The FED has basically said today that there will be NO JOBS, NO RECOVERY, and NO HOPE, until Obama is out of office!
