Yeah, Happy Days Unemployment ONLY 9.9%

Today Dopey Obama came out claiming recovery because unemployment is up!! WHAT? Recovery? Where?

From the APObama…
Largest hiring burst in years, but jobless rate up

The hiring last month of 66,000 temporary government workers to conduct the census added to overall job creation. But private employers — the backbone of the economy — contributed the most: A surprisingly strong 231,000 jobs, the most since March 2006, the Labor Department said Friday.

The new jobs, generated by sectors across the economy, are the first sign that the recovery is adding significant numbers of new jobs — even if not enough to absorb the influx of jobseekers. That’s why the unemployment rate rose.

So let me get this right – ONE EMPLOYER – just one the US GOVERNMENT, that adds not one thin dime the GDP hired 66,000 people but yet that paled in comparison to the massive hiring for the rest of the country, the rest of the employers in the entire nation which is what a million? Two million employers? More? Yep all the rest of the employers combined throughout the entire nation, every major employer, every small business, every mom and pop, every farmer, every single one down 6to the guy or gal that hires one or two people hired – are you ready – 230,000 people. WOOHOO! Happy damn days are here again and to think we’ve only lost 8,000,000 jobs under Obama! Boy, that trillion dollar stimulus is kicking ass isn’t it?

Can you smell the sarcasm?

These people, this brain trust seem to think that unemployment being up is a sign of more people looking for work – well yeah that because you extended the unemployment benefits last month so they reapplied to receive their back benefits, genius.

I told you I’m sick of the propaganda and lies and that’s all I hear anymore. I’ve told you before you need to create a 100,000 jobs per month just to keep up with the people entering the work force, they can’t claim unemployment as they’ve never had a job so those are the great uncounted masses of the unemployed – the youth. The real unemployment is 17.1% yeah that hope and change is pretty great isn’t it?

290,000 New Jobs Created In April, But Unemployment Rate Jumps To 9.9%

Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rate for whites (9.0 percent) edged up in April, while the rates for adult men (10.1 percent), adult women (8.2 percent), teenagers (25.4 percent), blacks (16.5 percent), and Hispanics (12.5 percent) showed little or no change. The jobless rate for Asians was 6.8 percent, not seasonally adjusted.

Yeah it’s all great news.
