I am more inclined to believe Jack Welsh, who says that in order to have the huge jump in employment that these numbers represent, we would see a booming ecomomy. That there would be other noticble ecomomic indicators that we were finally recovering. Until I see persons with gravatas, like Jack Welsh, saying that they can see indicators of a recovery, I'm going to be prone to look askance at improbable numbers like these coming out of Obama's government departments.
What really happened was the government workers who were responsible for retrieving the data were to busy RETRIEVING THE SECURITY FORCES from BENGAZI.
