OOPS

Forgot some zeroes and one piece of info:

Table A-1
http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t01.htm

Civilian Labor force
Not Seasonally Adjusted
155,255,000 - 155,075,000 = -180,000
Now apply the magic of seasonal adjustment
-180,000 becomes + 418.000

Participation rate
Not seasonally adjusted
63.7 - 63.6 = -0.1
Now apply the magic of seasonal adjustment
-0.1 becomes +0.1

Employed
Not Seasonally adjusted
143,333,000 - 140,107,000 = -3,226
Now apply the magic of seasonal adjustment
-3,226 becomes +873,000

Participation rate Not seasonally adjusted 63.7 - 63.6 = -0.1

Good to see that Romney is on this. He has already pointed out that the unemployment rate would be much higher if the participation rate was what it was four years ago.
