I had posted the above with all the BLS charts on my personal blog this morning right after the jobs report came out and have been listening to the local talk-radio here in the Chicago market this morning.

NOT ONE of them picked up on the record-low labor force participation rate, which just infuriated me.

I was posting the above right as Rush came on the air and said the exact same thing about the labor force participation rate and literally jumped for joy that someone else (Rush) had the same facts firmly in hand and was ready to talk about it.

Unfortunately, this TRUTH is likely only to be told in two places: Rush Limbaugh's radio show, and here on FR.

THAT'S DEPRESSING.

I do still think that the Romney-Ryan campaign ought to pick up on the FACT that today's numbers really aren't that great and break it down for the average American to understand:

81 Jobs, Per Day, Per State. That's the Obama Recovery.

When it's put in simple terms such as that, the facts are irrefutable and the average American is going to know in their heart of hearts that Romney's correct. We all see the harsh unemployment conditions all around us. If Romney-Ryan would use the "81 Jobs Per State, Per day" line it'd ring true with everyone.

Your wish has been granted. I just heard on the 1pm fox radio news an actual voice clip of Romney saying that if the same number of jobs were available today as when Obama was elected, the unemployment rate would be around 11%. I hope they play that clip every half hour!
