I suppose you are going to factor the developmentally disabled which have a much higher rate of unemployment too! The Department of Labor plays with numbers all the time. If they reported the true unemployment numbers people would be screaming in the streets. The true numbers are much higher when you factor in the folks who have given up looking for jobs and those that are underemployed.

No matter which way you look at it the numbers are easily manipulated. And the DOL does it all the time.

You are wrong the numbers are increasing. Just wait until the full effect of the Chrysler and GM bankruptcies hit the “unemployment lines”.

I am a woman and I am not math challenged at all. I am not an economist either but predicted that unemployment rates would reach 10% by June. I underestimated it a bit. It appears it will more than 10%. I live in the Air Capitol of the World….we stand to lose more jobs in the aircraft sector. Cessna announced more cuts. Boeing cut 10% of their workforce, Hawker Beechcraft isn’t looking good either. Bombardier has only cut 450 from their workforce mainly on the production side. These are just the numbers from the aircraft industry…it doesn’t reflect the ancillary companies that have had to cut their workforce.

Some of this comes directly from language out of the White House and some from the very language in the TARP/Bailout bill.

This one example of a town in the middle of the country and we tend to lag behind the other states when a recession hits.

That means that we aren’t on our way to recovery.

As for those 600,000 summer jobs they are going to create…Where are they going to create them (in the private sector, I doubt it.) and how?
I don’t see a plan. In 2 months school starts back up….Who is going to apply for these fictitious jobs anyways?

Because it’s amateur hour statistical analysis. I suspect major news organizations get their analysis from professionals, not disgraced former intelligence officers.

Thanks to Larry J. for compiling this info in a form easily digestible by us common folk. Now, my question is why is this post here NOT on the FRONT PAGE of the Washington Post or N.Y. Times. Do people really do their own math on the pluses of Obama’s vacuous speeches and the minuses of the actual real facts accessible to anyone intelligent enough to at least read NO QUARTER!…

Is this, Larry, why Obummer hired LarrySummers to do the math? Summers agrees that only chicks are stupid in math! And look where this sentiment has gotten him, eh?!!

Fresh from the success of the Viva Palestina: Lifeline from Britain to Gaza aid convoy – which took over 100 vehicles to Gaza from the UK, Member of Parliament, George Galloway has linked up on his US tour with the Vietnam veteran and peace campaigner, Ron Kovic, to launch a similar, but even larger venture from the States.

Galloway announced the initiative at a 1000-strong meeting in Anaheim, South California, rounding off a packed-out, coast to coast speaking tour highlighting the Palestinian cause.

“There’s a new atmosphere in the US over Palestine,” says Galloway, “the phenomenal response to this tour demonstrates that.”

No, larry is insulting a woman’s intelligence to say BHO is a “chick.” Women are much smarter than this piece of this USURPER.

Let’s get this straight. Unemployment rose to 9.4%, it previously was 8.5% (under reporting) and this slick car salesman who went to NY and Paris on TAXPAYER’S MONEY has the nerve to say what he said.

any sexist inference is not important, the message of ECONOMIC FAILURE IS.
