5.1# down to 7.8 %….
The ‘only’ place that jobs increased ?
Household jobs report, all others were areas of decline….
Pollster to democrat household:
Has anyone secured a job in the month of September ?
Head of household:
Yes, my union hired Jr to place handbills on the houses on our street…
Pollster: 1 job created….
I luv how these right wingers got tight lipped when i compared obamas first term in office to bush’s 8 full years on office..bush created 1 million jobs on his full eight years in office while obama created 5
2 million jobs on 3 and half years..embarrasing
Do you believe that having more people out of the work force benefits Obama? That is the only reason why he is rejoicing today because his plan worked. Keep more people out of the work force and all people need to see is 7.8% an no one will dig deep into the numbers. Well smart people will.
Meant 5.2 million jobs created under obama in just his 1st term
Can’t we all just get along?
Good jobs report.

You are right get rid of Obama and Bush. One down, Bush .One more to go.
Obama worst President ever
Bush second worst President ever.
Can’t we all just get along?
I love PBS and nearly all of the programs.
I guess James has decided to ignore my post or does not have a clue what NET means! Oh well we can only hope his bicycle has a flat on election day
Good night
Q: what is the key difference between Obama supporters and Romney supporters?
A: Romney supporters sign their checks on the front and Obama supporters sign theirs on the back!
Ratboy, I took Obama’s net down on his basketball hoop
James___ Are you for real?
Just one quick question. Who’s sock drawer is missing a few?
Sharon i feel sorry for u sweetie. Seriously..you just dont get it

Sharon i feel sorry for u sweetie. Seriously..you just dont get it
answer her question
James you are right when you compare Bush to Obama.
Nope Ratboy my 2011 Mustang GT will be runnin just fine when i drive to the polls on nov 6
Math…if the job force is growing at approximately 150k a month and you add 114k jobs you cannot possibaly reduce the unemployment rate by .3 It would be putting a VW engine in a dragster and saying ya it will stll go 300 mph. It just does not compute be you right or left. Sorry!
James better have a backup plan. There has been times when my truck didn’t start.

Forgive James for he knows not what he does
