Thanks be to Obama for creating so many jobs in the last five years. At least that's what you'd think if you listen to the garbage being spread by the Liberal Media, Obama's Cheerleaders. Here's the real truth. Most jobs created by The Master are part-time. Thanks to Obama and Obamacare, American society has become a part-time-job-society and will only get worse.
THANK YOU OBAMA

UNEMPLOYMENT STATS, PEACHY KEEN OR ROTTEN APPLES
Today Washington and the Media celebrated when the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the U.S. unemployment rate had fallen to 8.3%, the lowest figure since Feb. 2009. Based on this “good” news pundits all over the world are declaring the U.S. economy is making a comeback. But what’s the truth? I’ve read some of the reports, and here’s my analysis of the fraudulent BLS figures.
Do you know what “Americans not in the labor force” means? They are people who have quit looking for
work. Between Dec. 2011 and Jan. 2012
the numbers of Americans who have dropped out of the job market increased by 1.2 million. That’s
the largest increase EVER in that category for a single month. This is BLS information. You can check it out for yourself. This is the scam the feds are using to make
it appear that the unemployment rate has gone down.
Here’s how it works.
In Dec. 2011 there were 132.9 million Americans working. In Jan. 2012 there were 130.4 million
American working. That’s 2.5 million fewer
people working in the span of one month.
These people gave up looking for a job.
They are no longer in the federal stats reporting system. They have left the workforce. So
they no longer show up in any federal reporting agency. They are gone, vamoosed, disappeared, vanished,
nowhere to be found in the stats. And
Washington and the media call this an improvement.
But the BLS says 233,000 jobs have been created in Jan., and
the unemployment rate is down to 8.3%, and it’s time to break out the wine and
fire off the rockets and celebrate! What
a hoax. If 2.5 million people have
dropped out, but only 233,000 have found jobs, how does that equate to a
DECREASE in the unemployment rate to 8.3% from 8.9%? What happened to the 2,267,000? They are out of the system. It’s beyond stupidity that so many supposedly
intelligent people continue to buy into these fraudulent numbers.
If labor force participation,
meaning the number of Americans “in the system” were what it was in 2009, the
unemployment rate would be 10.2%. This is what makes no sense:
The
government pretending that millions of unemployed Americans have decided that
they simply don’t want jobs anymore and then reporting corrupt unemployment
figures.
all-time high.
No president has ever been re-elected when the unemployment
rate is over 8 percent, so guess what it’s going to be by the time we get to
Election Day? Bet it will be manipulated
to under 8%.

OBAMA'S "NOT A CAMPAIGN" BUSAPALOOZA VISITS WHERE?
The country knows Mr. O. is on an "It's not-a-campaign-trip" Busapalooza Tour. Thought you'd like to see where he went on the taxpayer dime.
Here are the cherry-picked locations Obama graced with his regal presence:
Goodhue County, MN, unemployment rate 6.8%
Dubuque County, IA, unemployment rate 5.6%
Winneshiek County, IA, unemployment rate 4.8%
Henry County, IL, unemployment rate 6.9%
And what's the unemployment picture in neighboring counties? Here's the scoop.
Clearwater County, MN, unemployment rate 11.1%
Hamilton County, IA, unemployment rate 11.5%
Alexander County, IL, unemployment rate 12.9%
Nationwide unemployment rate? 9.2%
Gee, do you think Obama's Busapalooza visited counties where he was hoping to get a welcoming reception? Counties that haven't felt the crushing sting of lost jobs and no hope?
He has no plan except orchestrating his re-election, and that's precisely what he's doing on this taxpayer funded trip. While America burns, he fiddles. Get ready, Folks, for 2012.

LIMOUSINE LIBERALS AND THE "EAT YOUR PEAS" PRESIDENT
Double Dip Recession? Not according to the Limousine Liberals in the Beltway (that's Washington, D.C. for those of you in Toten Creek). Nationwide home prices have declined another 5% in the last year. Bankruptcies, foreclosures and short sales are rampant. Food, clothing and energy prices are soaring. Unemployment and under-employment are at levels unseen in decades, around 15-17%. Americans are in a world of hurt.
But what's happening in The Beltway? Home prices have increased 4.3% in the past year while bankruptcies and foreclosures are scarce. Wonder why? Well, the federal workforce in Washington has increased by a quarter of a million employees since 2008. (Queen Bee Obamama knows how to hire). All those worker bees purchasing homes, that keeps the beehive movin' and shakin'. Thank you, Mr. I'm-Paying-My-Political-Debts Obama. And according to USA Today, 1/5 of federal workers now earn $100,000 or more. That kind of helps you pay the bills, wouldn't you say? Hey, I just thought of a question for ya'll. How many of you make $100,000 a year? Not so many??
You must not have friends in high places.
The unemployment rate in the five counties closest to the Beltway? It averages less than half of the almost 10% the rest of the nation is dealing with, ranging from 3.9% to 6.8%. Isn't that just peachy keen? 10% of you are out of work, and Washington rides the Gravy Train -- literally!
In the last 2 years there has been a 73% increase in the size of the federal limousine fleet. I call that riding a Big Gravy Train. The State Department, that'd be Hillary and her friends (such as Anthony Weiner's wife), added 194 limos since 2008, increasing its fleet to 259. And this at a time when we have no money and are going broke.
But Homeland Security, including the Secret Service, has only 118 limos, 4 fewer than it owned in 2008. During Bush's last year in office the GSA reported the feds employed a minimal fleet of 238 limos. That's 238 limos TOTAL, for the entire government. By 2010 that number had jumped to 412 luxury limos. Oh, Mr. O., you sure are doing your part to stimulate the economy, thank you very much.
You wonder why The King is always golfing or vamoosing out of town on yet another vacation?
Because he's on a whooper-dooper of a spending orgy with your money. He thinks he's got a forever-green-money-tree, and he wants to raise the federal debt limit to keep you planting more seeds so the money-tree continues to grow green.
Here's a suggestion, Your Highness. Let your czars and potentates car pool. That's what you've asked us to do. Or better yet, sell the limos, take a cab, or a bus, or a train. Washington has a train system, in case you didn't know. BUT DON'T RAISE THE DEBT CEILING!
The Reality? You voted against "raising the debt limit" when you were in the Senate, yet this week you said we "ought to take off our band aids and eat our peas" and raise the debt limit. Seriously? It's hard to take your buffoonery seriously.
One other thing, Mr. Obaffoon, you said you have hundreds of thousands of dollars that you don't need. May I suggest that you give it to charity? Or maybe give it to the government? They really need it. Or hey, I'd like to start a business so I can put some people to work. How about giving it to me? If you don't like any of these ideas, then just go away and shut up.

"SHOVEL READY PROJECTS" A LAUGHING MATTER
Watch this - Obama thinks the absence of "shovel ready projects" is a laughing matter. Think he'd feel that way if he were unemployed like about 15% of Americans? I have a message for him. Mr. O., millions of Americans are losing everything. Lives are being destroyed due to the absense of jobs and your "shovel ready projects." It is NOT a laughing matter. Quit making jokes and figure out how to create jobs, for instance, quit slapping new rules, regulations and laws on American companies. Or why don't you remove all restrictions on energy production within our shores? You'd take care of three problems: high gas prices, creation of jobs and energy independence - at last. But keep up what you've been doing and more companies will say bye bye to doing business here. Get A Clue, Mr. O.
