Obama Admin Has Warned “Not To Read Too Much” Into Monthly Jobs Report 30 Times Dating Back To November 2009… Proposed new Obama campaign slogan: “Don’t read too much into my first term.” Via the Romney campaign: June 2012: “Therefore, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report and it is informative to consider each report in the context of other data that are becoming available.” (LINK) May 2012: “Therefore, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report and it is helpful to consider each report in the context of other data that are becoming available.” (LINK) April 2012: “Therefore, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report and it is helpful to consider each report in the context of other data that are becoming available.” (LINK) March 2012: “Therefore, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report, and it is helpful to consider each report in the context of other data that are becoming available.” (LINK) February 2012: “Therefore, as the Administration always stresses, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report; nevertheless, the trend in job market indicators over recent months is an encouraging sign.” (LINK) January 2012: “Therefore, as the Administration always stresses, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report; nevertheless, the trend in job market indicators over recent months is an encouraging sign.” (LINK) December 2011: “Therefore, as the Administration always stresses, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report.” (LINK) November 2011: “Therefore, as the Administration always stresses, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report.” (LINK) October 2011: “The monthly employment and unemployment numbers are volatile and employment estimates are subject to substantial revision. There is no better example than August’s jobs figure, which was initially reported at zero and in the latest revision increased to 104,000. This illustrates why the Administration always stresses it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report.” (LINK) September 2011: “Therefore, as the Administration always stresses, it is important not to read too much into any one monthly report.” (LINK)
Where are the jobs? Why they're making hundreds of batteries for the fabulously successful Chevy Volt. They're making solar panels. They're tending crops in the wind farms.
How am I supposed to take any of you guys seriously? My wife had left on Fox radio from the TS Debby time frame and I drove her car tonight and some guy on there actually said that under Obama there is "record unemployment". No wonder you guys are so... so screwed up. Yes..... a few months after Obama took over from you know who there was the highest unemployment numbers since WW2 but again...just months and obviously the end result of W's disastrous reign as Czar....I mean President. Today it is about 20 something percent better than that 2009 September day and certainly not a record at 8.2% JFC get serious.
Right, the private sector is doing fine. President Obama told us so..... There will come a time when even the lib/dems who are not socialist ideologues will come to the realization that the policies of this administration not only aren't working, they are a big part of the problem....the socialists will never come around until its too late....and we're getting close

It's funny how the right encases the last three years so conveniently without so much as an acknowledgement of how we got there.. The biggest downturn in the economy since the Depression and just how long did it take to turn around the crash of 1929? 12-14 years at a minimum? Bush left the economy in absolute tatters........trust me.....I remember.....and I was reminded again in 2010 when I sold my house.......and you think we should go from near depression to robust in 3 years? Now that is truly funny. :lol:
40+ months at the helm for The Amatuer and it is STILL Bush's fault. :lol: The remaining Kool-Aid drinkers cling to that flimsy excuse like a life jacket.
We had the same kind of progressive, liberal excuse maker in the White House during all those years and he never solved the economic problems.....Hitler did.
That the economy was in the ditch when he was elected is not in question....that his policies have not only not been helpful in addressing the core issues but that they have made the situation worse is also not in question....the data is compelling and he can't hide from the building body of evidence. The more he blames Bush, the more he is admitting to the American public that he has no answers and is unqualified to do the job.....and I agree with him.
College Grads Dropping Out Of Workforce In Droves, 309K During Month Of June… (CNSNews.com) — There was a net decline of 406,000 in the number of Americans age 25 or older with a bachelor’s degree or higher who were working in the United States in June, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A net of 309,000 in this demographic simply dropped out of the labor force, which means they neither had a job in June nor actively tried to find one, according to BLS. The number of Americans age 25 or older with a bachelor’s degree or higher who were “unemployed” — meaning they did not have a job but did actively try to find one — increased by 96,000 in June. According to the new seasonally adjusted numbers that BLS released on Friday, there were 46,355,000 Americans age 25 or older with a bachelor’s degree or higher who held jobs in May. In June, that number fell to 45,949,000 — a decline of 406,000.
The DOW has doubled since it's lowest point after Bush......that's pretty compelling to everyone's retirement accounts. Not surprising the job market is choppy.....hell it may never recover after all of the outsourcing and general negativity directed at our manufacturing sector....which Romney would no doubt embrace. There ain't but so many pencil pushing money manipulating jobs to be hsd on Wall Street.

In Oct of 2007 the Dow was over 14,000. As of today we're at 12,800. Now if you were smart enough to buy at the low point in 2009 you would have doubled your money. If you had long term investments in your retirement account you're still under water. Interest rates are low it's almost impossible to generate a decent income stream. The housing market sucks and retirees can't gain any of their once held equity. Where's the CHANGE that this clown promised??? It's certainly not change for the better. So after almost 4 years of excuses and incompetence, we're supposed to give him 4 more years????
And where were your account values in Sept. 2009 in the aftermath of the disaster of George W.? It has had a long way to go since that time.
:? actually really good, Jim is very good in his selections. only real ups and downs have been during Obama wild ride. my issue is most of my stocks pay very good dividends which since I no longer work or have an income (no one wants an old person) the dividends are important to us. out of my base of 13 stocks. only 2 dont pay dividends and all my mutual funds pay dividends and How can you blame Bush for 9-11 Oh yes I forgot according to the left everything is his fault. Terriost attacks hurricanes, ecomony, death you name it it was bush's fault. I am surprised you didnt blame him for WW1 and 2 I dont mind paying tax's just dont want to be penalized for having a husband that does well in the Market. and tired of paying for everyone else. California I have been paying for people to sit on their ass for quite some time. I have no sympathy for any of them. they came her for a free ride and the liberals gave it to them. When I was growing up here we didnt have this issue there was no free ride. People worked for what they had. Give me those times any time.
Right, the private sector is doing fine. President Obama told us so..... after four years on his watch, he owns the jobs and investment numbers being generated....they are dismal and they are a direct result of his policies and leadership. Lemmings, the line for the cliff is the one on the left.....
Unemployment Rate Dropped In Every State That Elected A Republican Gov. In 2010 by Tony Lee8 Jul 2012, 6:24 AM PDT346post a comment In 2010, influenced by the Tea Party and its focus on fiscal issues, 17 states elected Republican governors. And, according to an Examiner.com analysis, every one of those states saw a drop in their unemployment rates since January of 2011. Furthermore, the average drop in the unemployment rate in these states was 1.35%, compared to the national decline of .9%, which means, according to the analysis, that the job market in these Republican states is improving 50% faster than the national rate. Since January of 2011, here is how much the unemployment rate declined in each of the 17 states that elected Republican governors in 2010, according to the Examiner: Kansas - 6.9% to 6.1% = a decline of 0.8% Maine - 8.0% to 7.4% = a decline of 0.6% Michigan - 10.9% to 8.5% = a decline of 2.4% New Mexico - 7.7% to 6.7% = a decline of 1.0% Oklahoma - 6.2% to 4.8% = a decline of 1.4% Pennsylvania - 8.0% to 7.4% = a decline of 0.6% Tennessee - 9.5% to 7.9% = a decline of 1.6% Wisconsin - 7.7% to 6.8% = a decline of 0.9% Wyoming - 6.3% to 5.2% = a decline of 1.1% Alabama - 9.3% to 7.4% = a decline of 1.9% Georgia - 10.1% to 8.9% = a decline of 1.2% South Carolina - 10.6% to 9.1% = a decline of 1.5% South Dakota - 5.0% to 4.3% = a decline of 0.7% Florida - 10.9% to 8.6% = a decline of 2.3% Nevada - 13.8% to 11.6% = a decline of 2.2% Iowa - 6.1% to 5.1% = a decline of 1.0% Ohio - 9.0% to 7.3% = a decline of 1.7% On the other hand, the unemployment rate in states that elected Democrats in 2010 dropped, on average, as much as the national rate decline and, in some states such as New York, the unemployment rate has risen since January of 2011. This is yet another example of how the so-called “blue state” model is not working.
Poll: 56% of American Voters Feel Obama Has Changed Country For The Worse, Only 35% Say For The Better… Ouch. Via The Hill: Two-thirds of likely voters say President Obama has kept his 2008 campaign promise to change America — but it’s changed for the worse, according to a sizable majority. A new poll for The Hill found 56 percent of likely voters believe Obama’s first term has transformed the nation in a negative way, compared to 35 percent who believe the country has changed for the better under his leadership. The results signal broad voter unease with the direction the nation has taken under Obama’s leadership and present a major challenge for the incumbent Democrat as he seeks reelection this fall.
