Romney will destroy this. It’s just more fodder that fits right into the mold RR are making for 0dumbo.

“Liar. And here’s proof.”

So is every business commentator on the planet. Jack Welch is already calling BS on the numbers saying they are a direct result of Obama's poor debate.

The analysis is simple. Even putting the shadow stats aside.

If we had the same workforce today as we did on Jan 1, 2012 the unemployment rate would be 8.4%. All they need to do is to keep shrinking the work-force to bring the unemployment pct down. Total scam.

Under-employment is the real thing to watch.

No Surprise here. Obama’s magic Numbers machine. The amazing thing is that even FOX shows a chart with these Lies boldly displayed.

It’s a joke...Mostly part time jobs to start with...and likely using OLD base numbers. Creative math...

Chicago machine hard at work. The dems are desperate and they are starting the lying machine up in full force. These low lifes aren't capable of winning fairly and they gloat over their despicable accomplishments. In other words, you are right, don't believe it.

They just went back to previous months and changed them all.

Really - they did that.

I would expect a little bit for seasonal hiring, but I wouldn't think by this much. You're right, something smells fishy.

I agree....Romney will prove "another lie".

I just love it that all the DEM media experts....have gone silent....until they get their "talking points" from their master.

They must take us all for idiots. Nobody will believe these numbers. Not even obamabots. They’ll be happy to see them, but they will know they’re a fabric of lies.

Unions added workers py paying them to show up for Obomba’s rallys. Work 4 hours at $11 bucks an hour and then get a free Obamma phone.

Yep. Just extracted the “revised upward” numbers and called them “new jobs”.

Easy, peasy...lemon squeezy.

Government employment growth accounts for about half of it, if I read this correctly. So mack-daddy wants a nice number going into the elections and orders agencies to hire.

Now the liberals will start crowing that Porkulus worked. The stated goal of Porkulus was to get unemployment below 8%,. That talking point will be out there.
