House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said the unemployment rate remaining flat at 7.8 percent shows a “good pace” and that the country is “going in the right direction.”
“Good morning. It’s a good morning indeed, I think,” Pelosi said, as she began her weekly press conference on Capitol Hill on Friday. “155,000 jobs added in December.”
“Good pace, going in the right direction,” she said. “1.8 million private sector jobs gained in 2012. December was the 34th consecutive month of private-sector job creation.”
The government unemployment report released on Friday revealed that the number of unemployed Americans remained unchanged from November, at 7.8 percent, and adding 155,000 jobs, just above the 150,000 jobs needed each month to keep up with population growth.

Maybe they forgot California again.
Quit confusing us with facts. Don’t you know it’s the smoke and the mirrors which count?
Sorry Nancy, “up” is not always good.
In 1970, a 5.5% unemployment rate was a crisis, my how times have changed.
This woman’s stupidity boggles the mind.
If first amendment rights were to be distributed to only those capable of handling them, I would demand that POS be one of them denied.
must be an alternative USA. Opps, I just remembered Nancy Pelosi D- CA, she is from the state of fruits, nuts and flakes. That explains it.
What terrible power drives that grinning corpse Pelosi?
Silliness from the the senile one reminds me of the joke about the old witch who jumped off a 50-story building.
As she passed the 43rd floor someone yelled out what were you thinking?
As she passed the 25th floor she replied, "So far so good!"
"Well, I'm here to tell you, some time in the next couple of months, we're going to be creating between 250,000 jobs a month and 500,000 jobs a month."

Pee-Lousy & Co are lying, Botox-addicted, lib-dem-skank-asses. Her face is stretched tighter than Buddy Rich’s snare drum.
Why is it that practically every day I read something that came out of the mouth of this Botoxed old hag, then I go weeks before I hear anything that Boehner has to say?
What an idiot. Bush’s worst day for unemployment was the same date as Obama’s best day...Inauguration Day 2009.
Now you know why Dante related that the hypocrites go to the lowest rings of hell
Won’t be long before those who are long term unemployed will run out of benefits and be taken off the rolls that determine the unemployment rate. Therefore the numbers will drop. Happy days are here again.
