Then isn't the GOP simply dropping the ball? Shouldn't they be pounding the table and questioning the validity of the numbers? Put Barack on the Defensive to justify the numbers.

no because when a Repub is in office the same thing occurs!! So why call it out when you will do the same thing?

moral of the story: Both Parties suck donkey balls. Both parties lie.

It's amazing to watch some of you guys figure out how unemployment numbers have always been calculated, and thinking you are on to something suddenly revealing and secret

Well, no.

But to respond at your level: nanny, nanny boo-boo back at you

Question: What is going to happen to jobless numbers in 3 months?

Answer: They are going to increase, as the Republicans removed unemployment benefits in the worse-hit-jobless states from 99 weeks to only 69 weeks.

Question: Why was that done? Isn't that a terrible thing to do to the unemployed?

Answer: Who cares about the unemployed? The GOP wants jobs numbers to rise, and they'll do anything to win an election.

click 'user cp' on top left
four sections on left-hand side
look at miscellaneous-second option is buddy/ignore list.

click on that



To remove a user from either the Buddy or Ignore Lists, un-tick the box next to their name and click the 'Save List' button. or add new name to list.

it's a great stress reliever. you can post what you wish and now have to worry about nonsense in reply!


well...til someone quotes them-then you just scroll down quickly.

Or, you can just pretend you have them on ignore, and occasionally directly answer them by mistake

of course that's the object. that's why i always remind people that when a pols lips move, he's lying.
and those who bought or continue to buy obama's lines( or any other candidate, politician, officeholder)-they're just naive, or have their head in the sand, or just want to believe. when he does't do what he said he was, it's someone else's fault.
when the patriot act that obama said he was going to change or kill continues with no changes, well there's a reason for that.when he and his minions say that the constitution says they can kill citizens without due process, there's logic mired somewhere too. it's just that only believers are smart enough, keen enough, perceptive enough to understand all the nuances that us dumb f^cks can't grasp. it also explains why i have a couple people on ignore, i have zero interest in reading their messages from far out there land.

Yeah, plowing through the superficial, shallow, name-calling haters gets pretty obnoxious.

Coach Pants,

Thanks for the links to the "real" data.

Riot, you have to wake up and smell the stink coming from Washington DC. And The GOP are just a responible as the Liberal Dems. If you think the GOP are having their heads explode over the data released by the dailykos.com you are mistaken. They are just part and parcel of the same rotten to the core system ruining this country just for themselves and their friends in the inner circle benifit.

People like me that work with data every day can spot manipulated numbers a mile away.

The government owns the regular media ie "popular media" with show like American Idol, Dancing etc that most Americans watch and get fooled in to thinking what ever they hear for these plastic talking heads must be true or it would not be on TV.

Coach Pants and people like him and dellinger63, danzig, Rudeboyelvis, jms62 and myself know where to find the "real data" and believe me my head is exploding to see how trerrible things really are and these clowns telling lies every single minute of every single day just to get re-elected and keep doing what they have been doing for the 40 years.

BHO is making the mess Bush and that devil Cheney made while they were in charge even worse. They are all to blame.


This county's political system is Broken PERIOD. Due to this the contry is BROKE. Until we can get a viable third party candidate that owes nothing to the real power brokers of the world (Trilateral and Bilderberg Groups) we will continue down this path, unfortunately there is no clone of Abraham Lincoln the first true third party candiate, who just happened to win the Presidency and oh yeah, saved the country.

Still love racing and always will.

The unemployment numbers have been calculated this way - independent of who is President - for some years now. Everybody knows who they include, and who they do not.

The screaming that "the numbers are not real" is absurd - because everybody who pays attention to them knows what they include and do not. They know the caveats. And the numbers over the years have always reflected the same thing as far as inclusion/exclusion, and the exclusions and caveats are already known to everyone who is reading the numbers, and is estimatable separately.

So dismissing the numbers as completely invalid is pretty absurdly ridiculous.
