The documented reality is that over 38 million dollars was paid to the White House staff while people all along the Gulf coast are losing their ways of life thanks to the incompetence of the same staff.

The documented reality is that 652,000 workers stopped looking for jobs.Maybe Obama can hire 100.000 people to ask them why-that should help that unemployment number drop further.

You are the one who was arrogantly attacking the president for shedding government jobs while the private sector hired 100% more people than they did last month. But that’s just, you know, documented reality.

jhw,you obviously don’t understand investment and private expansion.Up to this time (I fear that these numbers are going to lead to a market sell off over the summer) the market has expanded as buyers try to achieve gains for this year-as dividend and other taxes are going up next year.That “stimulus’ to the market has faded over the last several weeks; the incentive to invest is being poisoned by fears of declining returns because of increased taxes and fees pushed by this administration.Investors are moving toward the sidelines-the administration sees business as evil,the profit motive as greed.Without investment,there is no private job creation at rates that can employ new members of the work force.The massive expansion of debt under this administration has prompted real fears of inflation once the economy starts to recover-another hit to profits already compromised by government action.It is going to get bad-and Obama doesn’t have a clue.

“If George Bush was president we would be seeing a recovery; he never would have poisoned the private sector like Obama and his idiot economic staff have.” – Nephron

You win the Post-o-da-Day Award™ Nephron!
These measly 5000 jobs mean nothing in the face of the poisoned private sector.
The specter of really Big Huge Mammoth Gargantuan Government directing Multitudes of Super Inefficient Agencies each armed with Serious Numbers of Ineffective and Ultra Cumbersome Rules, Mandates and Regulations is the simple reason why there is no Recovery. We currently are sitting twiddling our thumbs in a depression both financially and emotionally as we wait for 2012 because in our hearts and minds we know this President doesn’t have a fly’s fart of a chance to understand Capitalism and enact policies which would nurture an economic recovery. Rather, NoBo keeps following a flawed progressive authored map driving the GM built Bus off the cliff while his passengers, the American People scream STOP YOU FOOL!
