Oh really? That's not what you guys said at the time.
To: newzjunkey
It’s 20% right now. That will never be reported by the MSM.

If Zero and his lackeys didn’t control the statistics, the real actual unemployment rate would be 14.5 anyway. The 2009 stimulus didn’t create any PERMANENT jobs. Give aways to banks, failing clean energy companies, state bailouts, etc. but no NEW PERMANENT jobs.

The Unemployment Rate would have hit 25% without my buying a new car in 2009.
There, I can play this game too.

She’s being modest. It would have hit 110%. Obama saved us all. [/s]

San Fran Nan is delusional. Well, I should say more delusional than she used to be, dementia is progressive.

As always, they are caught in their own lies.
Yea, yea, Pelosi...like we have to vote on it in order to be able to know what is in it.
Fact is, she's just continuing with her liberal/socialist/marxist mantra.

Ms Pelosi,
It is a 100% certainty that 71.235% of all statistical references are made up.

Nan Nan Nan it is truly over 20% now so make up a better lie next time....

I was going to make a similar comment, but add if you are going to pull numbers out of your @ss, why not pull 20.3%? 31.762418%?
What a douche! I apologize that's not right, I mean douches have a purpose - SanFranNan, not so much!

Pelosi is the MINORITY leader. She should get her food stamps and go home.

There actually are some intellectually honest leftists. Ratigan and Schultz had a cage match on MSNBC earlier, and Fat Boy Ed was the usual loser.
To: buccaneer81
That’s where I saw it. It was from the Drudge link.

Pelosi pulls whatever numbers she thinks sounds good out of her botox infused nether regions - she’s a habitual liar.

This is like that ridiculous “jobs saved” statistic.
Just pulled out of the ****ing air for idiots to hear and believe.

Pelosi is a piker. She doesn’t think big enough. She could have said unemployment would have reached 50% without the Stimulus. Then you could truly say the people that supported the bailout saved us from disaster.
Pelosi is like Gaddafi. He ran Libya but only made himself a colonel.
You have to dream big, Nancy. Go big or go home.
On second thought, just go home.
