Jobless Rate Holds at 9.7%; Weather Cited in Job Losses

Those that voted for him were wrong. If only the head down grazing had taken a short break to look up and realize he's all wrong for America.....

But, look at it this way. Had it been Hillary who was elected Pres you know, an actual American, she would have passed a health care bill already...and Republicans wouldn't have liked it. The President today is dazed and confused a much less difficult opponent for the Right.
 
If someone has already asked this question I apologize, but if we lost 36,000 jobs last month, and the workforce in the US is give or take, around 130 Million...Shouldn't that change the unemployment rate?

I've been saying for the last year........ Barry and this Congress will be the best thing to happen to this country for a long time, and they are making me look good.

This country seems to have to elect a totally clueless Democratic administration every generation just to remind us all just how bad for our country the Democratic party is....... this administration will be the new bar for future liberal administrations to shoot under.

Barry……. Jimmy Carter thanks you from the bottom of his peanut pickin’ heart.

j-mac, BLS claims that the labor force is 153.5 and the unemployment number is 14.8 million which divided by the 153.5 is 9.7%. If you add the discouraged of 1.1 million to the unemployment number the rate would be 10.4.
 
obama has absolutely destroyed himself and his party with his utter and replete incompetence

america has never seen the like

again and again he has set himself up for prodigious political pain (health care, cap and trade, the stimulus) with NO GAIN for himself or his own

this is why he's the most inept politician at the national level america has ever seen

obama has done a magnificent job of educating this country

never in my long life have i seen so many americans aware of what's going on

economically and socially this country is in for big trouble, maybe enough to do us in

but POLITICALLY this nation is strong, about the strongest i've seen

and it just might be enough to save us

If you think the right wants to do nothing then you are ignorant of the facts, which have been available to you for probably a year. Here let me help..... Health Care - GOP Solutions for America - GOP.gov ....... check it out. Just because the MSM doesn't pay any attention to the right's suggestions, doesn't mean they don't exist.

If you think the rightwing WANTS to do something then you are ignorant of the facts. Just because they are responding to the movement created by the democrats is meaningless, the FACTS are that repubs would rather ignore the problem as they have every time they have had the reigns. Please don't degrade yourself further by saying something stupid about medicare part D.
