I think the 80K is actually the net change in employment for the month, i.e., it is the number of people hired minus the number of people who lost their jobs. That number is commonly called “new jobs” or “jobs created” but it is actually the estimated net change in total employment.

“We learned this morning that our businesses created 84,000 new jobs last month. And that, overall, means that businesses have created 4.4 million new jobs over the past 28 months, including 500,000 new manufacturing jobs,” he said to applause from the packed auditorium at Dobbins Elementary School. “That’s a step in the right direction.”

The President then added, "And there are no American tanks in Baghdad!"

Month after month the pro-Obama media keep repeating the mantra that bad economic news that month was ‘unexpected.”

Unexpected by who, the pro-Obama MSM?

After 3 and a half years of bad news on the economic front virtually every month, I’d say that economic good news is unexpected.

Hopefully Ibama’s Presidential loss in November will be unexpected by the MSM and commie friends.

I’ll watch some real pitching tonight, when Strasburg pitches for the Nats!

‘below expectations’?
Is that anything like ‘unexpected’?

No.
Actually, it's unprecedented.

Seriously, I am tired of listening to or reading about BS issued by Hussein's Ministry of truth.

Anyone have a link to the site that tracks ACTUAL unemployment?

[dearolddad]

Help me out here, maybe I am just really dense. If the average new unemployment claims are 380K and the new jobs is 80K, isn’t that a net loss of 300K jobs?

It would be perfectly clear if you had attended obummer's new math classes.

Here is an interesting site...

REAL UNEMPLOYMENT U6

"A frequent meme propounded in the economic blogosphere is that U6 unemployment, running near 17% now, is a truer measure (and there are good reasons to believe it is), so that means we have unemployment already approaching Great Depression levels of 25%.

Our sluggish economy is clearly racist.

How many of these “jobs” were goverment jobs?

[TwelveOfTwenty]

According to the Dems, unemployment would be 5.6% if Obama's stimulus had been passed. Wait, you mean it was passed?

[TwelveOfTwenty]

How many of these “jobs” were goverment jobs?

How many were part time service jobs, requiring skills such as reciting "Would you like fries with that?"
