Uh uh...is not.

I'm gonna phone Nancy "Start calling me Madame Speaker" Pelosi's office to confirm this. After all, it wasn't that long ago she was asking the question: "Where are the jobs?". And we all know that next to Hillary, Nancy is the smartest woman in America.

Actually when the unemployment rate gets too low you get a lot of people working that you don't WANT working because they're too stupid to deal with. And everybody gets booted upstairs to the level of their own incompentence.

That reminds me -- I need to check Monster. My employer doesn't think there's a tight labor market for computer guys.

Besides how are we going to get rid of the ilegales when there's nobody to do the work?

It's not only that: look at the first paragraph ... it STATES there we're in a recession... confirming what people might think from the headline.

Minor correction --- wording this the way I really meant it:

It's not only that: look at the first paragraph ... it states there we MIGHT BE in a recession RIGHT NOW... confirming what people might think from the headline

But economists were expecting a job increase of 129,000. The disappointing increase has some economists asking whether Bush is mismanaging the economy - AP

Democrat "economists," AP should have the guts to report their names and associations. Ever notice that the AP and DBM rarely mention the names/associations of their cherry picked economists? Former economic officials in Jimmah Cahtah's (or BJ Clintoon's)sterling adminstration, no doubt. Remember the "misery index?"
