The esteemed folks at MSNBC were trying to spin the May unemployment numbers before they even came out, saying that the economy was getting better. Well, when 8:30 AM EST came around, the news out of the Labor Department was not good. The unemployment rate ticked up to 8.2 percent and only 69,000 were lucky […]
The end of spring is often associated with graduations and the end of academic careers for many young Americans, but graduates are coming to the harsh realization that there is a serious lack of available jobs in our current market. Recently the AP reported that more than half of all recent graduates below the age […]
As the White House and its friends in the liberal media crowed about the unemployment rate moving ever so slightly down to 8.1 percent from 8.2 percent in April, the real story was how the American labor force shrunk to 63.6 percent. This means that 88,419,000 Americans are sitting on the sidelines, not even looking […]
A party that is satisfied with 8.5 percent unemployment is a party that is going nowhere. 64 percent of Americans believe that the country is on the wrong track. This abysmal number shows that the liberal policies of President Obama and Democrats in Congress have sullied the American psyche. Read more at Politico here. Don’t […]
First time jobless claims were again over 400,000 (at 409,000) last week. Second quarter productivity slid to 0.7 percent for the second quarter in a row. Tomorrow fresh unemployment numbers come out for the month of August and if I had a crystal ball I would predict they will probably remain over 9 percent. Next […]
While the long hot summer continues, more news about how lackluster America’s economy is came out today. The economy grew at a snail’s pace in the second quarter and the Gross Domestic Product was revised down from 1.3 percent to 1 percent. This revision is just more evidence that America’s economy is in the doldrums. […]
Wow! We have come a long way from “hope” and “change.” President Obama will try to eviscerate and demonize whoever the eventual Republican nominee is, because he does not have a record to stand on. Obama’s failed policies have resulted in nine percent plus unemployment, $14 trillion in debt, and out of control spending. Not […]
July’s unemployment numbers were curiously lauded by some in the press on Friday morning, but the reality of the job market is still grim. The unemployment rate fell by only .1 percentage point, from 9.2 to 9.1 percent and an unimpressive 117,000 jobs were created. Under President Obama’s watch, the unemployment rate has been 9 […]
Americans were sold a false prophet in 2008, and with the Obama recession they will turn their backs on President Obama in 2012.

Yesterday, President Obama threw a temper tantrum like a two year old and stormed out of a meeting that he personally called for on the debt crisis. President Obama has become unhinged and is resorting to scare tactics and childish behavior in an attempt to win the media spin cycle. He is playing politics with […]
With the monthly unemployment rate rising to 9.2 percent last week and only 18,000 jobs created in the month of June – the economic outlook is very bleak for America. Already, July is looking like another stagnant job month with over 400,000 Americans already getting the pink slip in the first week. Our economy has […]
