I am speechless. Solis is actually asking the news reporters to lie more than they already do about the unemployment numbers? If they really told the truth about unemployment and underemployment, this country would be going after this Admin with tar and pitchforks. What scum we have in charge of our once great country!

“All we’re asking is that everyone get behind the President in this battle to revive our economy,” Solis requested. “A more balanced approach in reporting on unemployment would help. I mean, a person might lose his job, but let’s not forget that he gains more leisure time. That means more time to spend with his family. More time to pursue his hobbies. It’s not a tale of unending woe. There are offsetting gains.”

This is so rich a target that it’s too easy . First, it reveals exactly what the Leftists hope to accomplish: no one should care about work, or being productive as such. The government will provide for everything - even decide when you should die (by being denied treatments). And moreover, if the brainless Hilda Solis genuinely believes in all this upside from unemployment - then why does she care how the numbers should be reported? Why should they be carefully reported to combat economic woes if there is so much benefit to being unemployed in her eyes? Why bother to mask or obfuscate the numbers at all? Why not just proudly scream them out as being high, proclaim you want them to spiral upward so that all the hobby-pursuing leisure time would increase exponentially? Of course, if your “hobby” depends on someone being employed to provide it to you - and they aren’t employed either because THEY are now “free” to pursue THEIR hobbies - well...why nitpick, right??

Should anyone even wonder if the media is controlled by the democrats. The Threats to the media are being made behind the scenes. Do what we say or else.

Obongo should abolish unemployment — let him assign an employment czar. That would be the sensible answer.

Wow...this satire fooled me more than usual. I could totally believe Solis said this.
