Census ‘faked’ 2012 election jobs report

Get the anonymous source both in the open and on the record. Until then, your conspiracy theories are just that.
 
Census ‘faked’ 2012 election jobs report | New York Post

Honestly, who didnt already "know" this?

Most of us had our sneaky suspicions this was and is the case, now the truth is coming to light....and yet there are those of you that arent bothered by this...

Who is this "anonymous" source. If the source's allegations were reliable, the revised unemployment rate numbers would have changed materially. Instead, the revised numbers are as follows:

August 8.1%
September 7.8%

That's exactly what the employment situation report released at the time showed:

Employment Situation News Release

Bottom line: The Post's column isn't credible.
 
I only read the NY Post story, but the accusation that the employment data was "faked" doesn't jibe with the rest of the story.
 
There is no shocker here. It was already revealed that one of the reasons the employment numbers looked 'better' was because several states didnt bother submitting their numbers.

The cumulative U3 figure isn't contingent on state by state reporting but rather a selected number of households. You're likely referring to initial unemployment benefit claims.

Add to the mix the fact that they simply stop counting people after they exhaust their benefits and its easy to see we simply dont know just how bad it all is.

Nope. Whether or not the individual is receiving unemployment benefits is not a question asked to survey participants and does not factor into the figures at all. You've been thoroughly misinformed on the issue.
 
Amazing how the Libbos ate suddenly opposed to anonymous sources. You can bet if the anonymous source said that the numbers faked the other direction, they would take it to the bank.
 
It just amazes me how the NYPost, The Blaze, Brietbart, PJMedia, American Thinker, and a slew of rightwing blogs can all come out with the same breaking story on the same day.




You don't think that maybe they are getting their 'news' from the same source, eh?

You can believe whatever you want to believe, but that doesn't make it the truth.

I do? Please, tell me more about what I think.
 
At some point there was so many shenanigans for Obama to get reelected that the election should be declared null and void.

Prove it. Prove that his re-election is illegitimate. Please.
 
So you need yet another blue dress huh.:lol: Obama's reelection was won because he manipulated facts and figures as this thread proves.

This thread doesn't prove anything. If you actually read the NY Post story, you'd know that.

Here is yet another really sick and hurtful lie to get a 2nd term.




"President Obama comforted you and offered you “immediate” assistance. Since your encounter with him months ago, what has been your interaction with the White House?
After his visit, I sent an email to President Obama. Many days later, I got a response back. It was disturbing.

How so?
It had nothing to do with what I was asking him. It was a form letter. It thanked me for supporting the troops. He made a promise to rebuild on national television, and I can’t even get this money. It’s heartbreaking, really. I did reach out to Senator Whelan, and I got a response that they were forwarding my email to the person that Governor Christie put in charge of Sandy relief. But from President Obama, I got a form letter.

What were you hoping for?
When you get a hug from the President of the United States, you feel like there’s something there. A promise was made. I have two grown kids. One is a U.S. Navy diver. The other one lives at the marina with his wife and new baby, and they lost everything. But I raised my kids to know that your word is your word. You promise something, you keep it, and that was a broken promise. I’ve never been a person to expect free handouts, but the President gave me hope. But now, I just don’t know.'

Seriously? Did he think Obama was going to come to his house and bake cookies for him?

What SHE thought was that when he hugged her and said he would make sure she got immediate help that he was telling the truth and not just using her for a commercial.
 
Thats flat wrong. BLS survey 60k households monthly to come up with the unemployment rate. They survey companies to post job growth numbers.

Current Population Survey (CPS)

The operative word is "survey".. and a second word is post job growth numbers.. hence why give the BLS the real numbers if it benefits the political opposition you want to rid off?

And this whole thread does not? The usual right wing nutjobs on tv are drooling all over this claiming voter fraud and coup (the CNBC morons were especially funny), but they fully accept that their buddies in the private sector that support the GOP give "truthful" information and it is only the so called evil Obama and his administration that does wrong.. grow the **** up and get a better system over there.
 
The "anonymous" source is huge problem for the credibility of the story, imo. Until we know who the source is.....meh.



The Census employee caught faking the results is Julius Buckmon, according to confidential Census documents obtained by The Post. Buckmon told me in an interview this past weekend that he was told to make up information by higher-ups at Census.


Who's anonymous?

What voter fraud? WTF are you babbling about? This was about employment numbers.

I guess you havent been following the story since it broke yesterday...
 
It just amazes me how the NYPost, The Blaze, Brietbart, PJMedia, American Thinker, and a slew of rightwing blogs can all come out with the same breaking story on the same day.

The same way Huff Po, NY Times, Democrat Underground etc come out with stories on the same day...they link to one another and refer to the main article through the wire.
 
Would you prefer the story not be reported at all?

Of course they would prefer it not be reported...it is an article that is against "The Chosen One", their exhaulted supreme leader.

Im sorry, yours was a rhetorical question....sorry. :mrgreen:
