1. When do these bozo's stop digging the hole?

I am not surprised, but I am surprised.

I am not surprised that *'s labor department did this but I am surprised at the lenghts they will go to for 1-2 days of political talking points. They are completely ruining our country for a one day headline "270,000 jobs created in April".

This should open the eyes of those middle class freepers that this administration doesn't care if they have a job.

2. Thanks for posting this

I posted it last night, and it bears repeating. The Bush gang is basing their rosy jobs creation figures on a stupid FORMULA, not on actual data! People, wake up! This bunch is lying about EVERYTHING!

Of course, everyone but the Freeper lurkers is awake and looking at the dwindling "help wanted" section of every newspaper in the country. Some, like me, have been unemployed for a long time, and are watching savings and hope for retirement dwindle.

That this was published in a Murdoch rag is odd. Maybe the old fascist is waking up, himself.

3. Kick

Hope this story can get a little play in our current scandal-glutted climate.

This really IS a scandal.

4. JOBS great post. Thanks.

They will do anything to win. Anything.

We must get rid of this White House Gang.

Greenspan first. He has put interest rates low but increased them 13 times for President Clinton. Big jumps were during election years.

White house Gang is leaving a stench which will take years for a Democratic group to erase.

7. Are you willing to concede 480,000 jobs created in January?

Because the birth/death model subtracted 321,000 jobs in that month, and its current benchmark has been in use for over a year.

8. You mean that the numbers haven't

been either fudged or fabricated for years now.
