The market's expectations were low and the report still came in weaker than expected.

70,000 jobs added was expected. So this is unexpected I guess <sarc

If the American people have any brains and common sense left in their heads, they will totally boycott the worthless, useless remarks to be delivered by inept, empty suit, African Muslim, POTUS Barack Hussein Obama, the destroyer of the American economy and the American nation!!! End of story!!!

We need a recount of the jobs created in Martha’s Vineyard.

lower than the 53,000 gain expected.First it was 75k expected then 65k expected now 53k expected. I guess Obama just saved or created 22k jobs this month by looney lib calculations.

Some things just don’t make sense to me. The initial jobless claims report comes out every week with 400,000+ new claims. We are told (every week), that the number must be significantly below 400,000 if we are to have a stable job market. Then the monthly unemployment number comes out and it remains stable (albeit high). ???

With this plus the vote in German Parliament on 9/7, Obama could very well be giving his speech in the middle of a massive market crash.

You beat me to it..with this bunch, the only thing certain is more “unexpected” bad economic news.
To: frogjerk
lower than the 53,000 gain expected. Memo to State-Run Media:
Yes... ZERO does tend to be less than 53,000.
