Obama to hold press conference after tomorrows unemployment numbers (first time ever)
CNBC and Bloomberg | 05/06/2010 | CNBC and Bloomberg

Posted on 05/06/2010 7:58:16 PM PDT by The Magical Mischief Tour

CNBC and Bloomberg just said the Bambi is holding a presser immediately following the release of tomorrows unemployment numbers.

The significance of which, is that he has never done that.

So, what gives?

Doom and Gloom, attempting to calm the masses in the face of bad numbers?

Or more green shoots, lollipops and unicorns?

Facebook page that says it all! Good for a (sad) laugh...

How about we stop blaming Barack Obama for everything George Bush did

“Take credit for the census hires improving unemployment.”

You Sir, are spot on. 660,000 new jobs
I know. I’m one. Until June 30.
Then maybe we’ll be offered jobs caulking windows.

Count the uses of the word "inherited".

That will tell you the story.

Shall we all watch the stock market rise just before the presser and last for a few hours?
Betcha.

The government has hired a tremendous number of presumed citizens to enunmerate every potential democrat voter for the upcoming elections.

The “green shoots” they saw last february (2009) were actually “green and red shoots” as the mexican flags were beginning to unfurl out of the ground like so many jack-in-the-pulpits in the springtime.

Well, he claims credit now, and he will let Bush take the blame in July.

He’s going to announce a drop in the unemployment rate and and net gain in jobs. Both of the numbers, of course, will be absolutely false, but that doesn’t matter much, no does it?

I cast a vote for the second. The hundreds of thousands of census workers will show huge green shoots. Of course what will not be said, or even mentioned, is the fact these jobs all disappear in a couple of months. Maybe the psychological aspect will make consumers and businessmen go out and spend - I have no clue. Me? I ain't buying anything this lying @#%@#% Soetoro says.

Without doubt.
The guy’s a congenital, characterless coward and wouldn’t personally face the music for bad news.

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of Mexicans (who do not speak any English) wearing US Census hats in Louisiana. Makes you wonder what the hell is going on.

Probably has some encouraging numbers, so he is going to take credit for something he had NOTHING to do with.

Does he know what the numbers will be? My bet is on he does and they will unexpectedly be fantastic.

Must be favorable or he wouldn’t do it.

That is absolutely correct.

One thing we know about this socialist narcissist Ubama is that he would never confront America with bad news unless he wanted to blame somebody else and promise to "clean up their mess". That scumbag knows the numbers will show an improvement but, "...as encouraging as these numbers are, we know that we still have a long way to go, and this administration intends to blah blah blah..."

Ubama will spew the kind of horse manure a ninth grader could write.
Normal, taxpaying, traditional Americans will simply roll their eyes and face palm, as usual.
