It’s Jobless Number Revision Thursday!

This is supposed to be going down! What happened? Just last week they told us it suggested “tepid recovery trends” to continue.
“Initial claims for state unemployment benefits increased 6,000 to a seasonally adjusted 386,000, the Labor Department said. The prior week’s figure was revised up to 380,000 from the previously reported 377,000.” So in reality, if you run the numbers out, the claim is up 9,000 from last week’s report. For the record, this latest revision means that the weekly jobless claims number, as Jeff here said, has now been revised up 21 weeks in a row — and 66 out of the last 67 weeks. Unexpectedly rose. Unexpectedly!
Reuters also said, and I quote, “Claims remain trapped in the tight band established since April.” So the news media is even resorting to blaming “tight bands” now instead of Obama. So unemployment is up “unexpectedly,” and the regime is privately admitting to themselves that there’s not gonna be any miraculous economic recovery news to report between now and the election. And here’s another Reuters story:
“US consumer prices fell in May by the most in over three years as households paid less for gasoline, possibly giving the US Federal Reserve more room to help an economy that is showing signs of weakening.” Wait, I thought the private sector was just fine. Now we got an economy “showing signs of weakening.” But now the Fed “might have more room to help an economy.” “Another government report on Thursday pointed to persistent weakness in the labor market…” Another bad week for America. http://conservativebyte.com/2012/06/obama-admits-he-cant-fix-... m/ http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2012/06/14/it_s_jobless_num...And he will rip into all of the policies that didn't work then that Romney wants to go back to. I know what this speech is gonna be before I read it, before I hear it. I know. I know the major points he's gonna make. I know he's been trying to fix the housing market for three-years. He's been trying to fix the job market for three years. He's been trying to help the economy for three years. But it was so bad! Bush did so many rotten, bad things -- Bush was such a disaster -- that not even the brilliance of Obama and his team with Steven Spielberg and Susie Buell Tompkins and Eric Schmidt (none of them) can fix it.
That's how bad Bush damaged it. That's how totally incompetent and worthless George W. Bush was. Now, Jeff referred to what he thinks is a conspiracy going on in the government over these job numbers. But I have here a story in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers that will intrigue him. It's from the Daily Caller. "The president’s nominee to run the highly visible Bureau of Labor Statistics is on track to win Senate approval despite her ties to decidedly left-wing political groups, her critics say.

+3when you take out all the employable drop outs (not counted) under employed (not counted), part time employment (not counted). people who gave up and went to SSI (not counted).... the more unemployed people you don't count makes the numbers naturally lower.reply - Elaine Magliacane 2012/06/16 00:04:24
