I notice the U-6 remains (again) unchanged, stuck in the 14%+ range.

Okay, that's the way I would have said it.

ah...thank goodness the ignorance continues to flourish.

The unemployment rate could be zero....the stock market could move up 100%...the tax rate could be zero for multibillionares...and you could sit on your porch with a SAW pointed at every child walking down the street...

It doesn't matter if the news is good, bad, or no change....as long as Obama is still President all good news is bad news...any no change news is bad news....and and actual bad news is just the end of the world.

The unemployment rate is a pefect example. It goes down...you complain that it is rigged...it stays the same you complain that it isn't going down...

and obama could crap on a plate and call it a meatball, and you and the other liberals would claim you had spagetti for dinner.

obama (your idol) is a POS idiot, anything he does is bad and hurts the country. There are certain things that could happen where people would morn, and I would be buying beers at the nearest bar in celebration.

I am a patriotic American.

After it dropped from 9% to 8% in one month (indicating 1.5 million new jobs), smart people know what's going on.
