Everyone who is unemployed knows they are whether Chris Matthews says so or not.

Yea, but the spin is that "your neighbor" now has a job.

If you had sold something on Ebay it is counted as a job.

Yeah, but I everybody knows at least a few people who are a)out of work, b) underemployed AND c) miserable in their current jobs but unable to get out. Off the top of my head I can think of a handful of people for each of those categories and that's without even trying. And I know some areas of the country have been hit much worse than the Northeastern part of the country. An unemployment rate in the sevens would be laughable if it didn't smack of Soviet style propaganda.

My neighbor lost his job when 0 shut down Dodge dealers that donated to McCain on 2008. He quit looking for jobs and works on his dad's farm.
