MSNBC: December Jobs Report Is ‘Awful,’ ‘Very Bad,’ And ‘Ugly’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 01-09-2014 | Staff

Posted on 01/10/2014 10:14:10 AM PST by Red Badger

MSNBC admitted that the December jobs report was dismal Friday.

CNBC’s Michelle Caruso-Cabrera announced the newly released report number. Only 74,000 jobs were created in December, a number that fell significantly short of the 200,000 anticipated created jobs.

Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough commented “That’s a horrific number” and said that the newly added jobs number is the lowest seen in years.

Caruso-Cabrera confirmed Scarborough’s statement, saying that the newly added jobs number is in fact the lowest since January of 2011 and the number was “very, very bad.”

I’m not sure how long they can keep manipulating numbers and changing formulas to rig the stats. From Unemployment to inflation to insured to subsidy recipients and the poverty stats..... It’s hard to believe anything we hear anymore.

“Barack? This is Nancy. Huge favor. I need you to ratchet down the Jobs-o-lator to a superlow number. We’re trying to jam through this unemployment extension. As soon as we get this done, you can just reset it to the made-up higher numbers. Thanks!”

Yet the reported unemployment rate was reduced to 6.7% because they decided to quit counting a half million people without jobs as unemployed. Thus, over a period when there was a net increase of people without jobs the unemployment rate fell. And we are supposed to believe this BS.

"And the WH will continue to say we’re in a recovery,,and the MSNBC bootlickers will agree unanimously!"

It's a "Barack-ery", a new economic state that is both a wonderful rainbows-and-unicorns economic recovery that is all due to the work of Dear Leader, and requires extension of unemployment benefits to allow people to stay on the dole for a couple more years.

This is the private sector trying to survive and adjusting their behavior due to Obama laws by shedding people, cost and size.
I know of a transportation company not hiring new drivers dropping the whole thing to under 50 employees to avoid Obamacare.
Then there are all the taxes and new RE taxes in Obamacare.
Also, who gets all the new taxes and fines?

A difficult day for the liberals at MSNBC, they didn't know whether to call the jobs report good in an attempt to claim Obama has “turned the economy around” or make it look awful in an attempt to push Obama’s extended unemployment benefits plan. It looks like they choose the later....
