from the new york times this morning:

July’s job growth was higher than economists had been expecting, but no one is yet popping champagne corks. The unemployment rate ticked up to 8.3 percent from 8.2 percent.

“It’s a lot better than we’d been seeing in the last few months, but it’s still short of the kind of job growth we were seeing at the beginning of this year,” said Paul Ashworth, chief United States economist at Capital Economics.

As for the pace of hiring through the rest of the year, he said, “I think this is about as good as it’s going to get.”

For context, the economy now produces as many goods and services — more, in fact — than it did before the downturn officially began in December 2007. But it does so with almost five million fewer jobs.

And the rate at which the economy has been adding jobs in the last few months is just barely fast enough to absorb the growth in the labor force.

“In the weakest recovery since the Great Depression, nearly the entire reduction in unemployment since October 2009 has been accomplished through a significant drop in the percentage of adults participating in the labor force — either working or looking for work,” said Peter Morici, a professor at the University of Maryland.



you know, obama said when he took office that the economy would be the number one priority. yeah, right. everyone in d.c. twiddling their thumbs, while nothing happens.

No tax cuts for anyone. Not until the bills are paid.

Not that they would do that with the extra cash though. That would go toward, "strengthening the 'middle class'", of course.

WARSAW, POLAND—World leader and president of Poland Bronisław Komorowski was reportedly puzzled Tuesday as to why he had just met with a man who was apparently the governor of Massachusetts six years ago. "That person currently holds no position of power, so I'm not sure why I would have any sort of high-level talk with him," Komorowski was overheard saying to his advisers, adding that as a head of state with a busy schedule he shouldn’t be taking meetings with just anyone. "Essentially, I just had an hourlong conversation with an unemployed American man." According to sources, when reminded that the individual he had met also ran the Winter Olympics in 2002, Komorowski responded, "Who gives a shit?"

Riot please keep amusing me with your attempts to spin the horrendous unemployment numbers and in defending that filthy, corrupt liar Harry Reid. Reid was just using the methods of the most corrupt political machine in the history of US politics, the Chicago Democrats, which is to throw out false allegations with no proof against an opponent and then call for the opponent to provide proof. Only morons defend that tired old act. I have a question for you Riot, why won't Obama release his college transcripts? Is he afraid that the rest of America will know what most of us already know, that Obama ia a brain-celled challenged idiot. All one has to do is listen to his constant "uh uh uh" during debates and his constant gaffes when he doesn't have a Teleprompter in front of him.

Obama continues to defy history. Before him, generally the bigger the recession, the stronger the recovery. 8.25% or 8.3% are pathetic, anemic numbers, especially when you consider how many people have dropped out of the job market and aren't even counted. If you include those people, the unemployment rate is over 11%.

Welcome to the board! Riot uses these exact techniques, she will often post links to thousands of pages of nonsense to support her position and tell you to find it, so it is not surprising that she would fall for this complete nonsense.

Like the President, she will constantly attack Romney instead of being able to truthfully push Obama's accomplishments. Be careful of getting into the Riot vortex, she gets nasty and always has to have the last word.

Geeshus. At least do better trying to hide your ususal "posting style", so it's not so easy to tell who you really are
