Fun pie chart there, Pie.
Here is a take on your Obama Cabinetmember at work. I figure Olberman's part of the Obamanation.

Lies, Lies, and more Kabuki Theater from Obamy.
Today the jobless rate was estimated at 9.6%, that totally biased news program, NPR, stated they continue to underestimate and not count those who have stopped looking (they interviewed a number of these people) and those who are in part time jobs because that is all they can get. The estimate actually is around 16%, btw, 36,000 more people lost their jobs last month... |

It considers three factors: 1) those who were not employed during the reference period, 2) those who were available for work at that time and 3) they made specific efforts to find employment sometime during the reference period. http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm The U6 rate, which is reported as well, has never been the "official" rate, but for political reasons, those on the right want to start using that rate now. What a surprise. So now its "lies, lies and kabuki theater" to use the same official rate as previous administrations? There's a partisan opinion if I ever heard one.

No one likes the job losses except perhaps those who take glee in wanting Obama to fail. The number of jobs lost has gotten smaller in each of the last 6-8 months.....that is how you turn the economy around...one month at a time...not with a magic bean that goes from losing 779,000 jobs last January (when Obama took office) to the latest numbers. In fact, with the exception of a few monthly blips, the last two months have had the smallest number of monthly jobs lost in nearly two years. http://data.bls.gov/PDQ/servlet/Surv..._view=net_1mth IMO, that is a good trend and attributable in part to the stimulus program, but we'll never know what the jobs lost would have been w/o the stimulus.

You cant have it both ways, dude. I agree the projected debt is not sustainable...but short term deficits in times of deep recession have proven successful in the past.....unless you have a better way to turn the economy around more quickly. I would certainly hope the 01 and 03 tax cuts for the top bracket are left to expire at the end of this year, as proposed in the original laws.....saving at least $1 trillion over the next 10 years. |
