Not a very good sign though.
Well, since most of those jobs came from Wisconsin and Texas it tells another story entirely.

You call one number an economic recovery??
Weren't you the one predicting last year we would be below 7% unemployment by now?
Shit...I was wrong wasn't I?
Doesn't mean we can't be glad for a little good news on the jobs front does it?
Oh....I forgot, your the Rabbi
Economy must fail....economy must fail
Oh shiiiiit lol, I called it! Attack people for not accepting horrible news as "good news."
Lets roll back time Ohhh to lets say 1 year ago, when RW was making thread after thread of how Obama is absolutely, for sure this time, it's happening, no doubt the recovery is happening now. Then we can watch him rabidly attack anyone that says these numbers are shitty at best.
Nice to know some people stay the same, like today, only with worse numbers!
As has already been pointed out, the 154,000 is NET and the UI claims are GROSS.A typical "good news, bad news" story. The BAD news is that an average of over 400,000 people every WEEK are filing for FIRST TIME unemployment benefits.
Businesses didn't "add" ANYTHING. Only to a leftist does adding 154,000 and subtracting 400,00 leave us with a "positive" number. Must be that "new math".
That's not a fact, that's completely untrue. Try doing research.Then there is the FACT that the U.S. government employment/unemployment statistics don't take into account people who have exhausted their unemployment benefits and still haven't found a job,
Because they're not unemployed. Unemployed does NOT mean "does not have a job" but "is trying to get a job." Or are you going to count retirees and students as unemployed?people who have given up looking for work,
How are they UNemployed?people who are working part-time at McDonald's and have a Master's degree, people who are underemployed,
If they're trying to get a job, then they're unemployed.and people who have reached the hopeless and helpless stage and have joined the unemployed poor and are collecting food stamps, living in subsidized housing, and are on the Medicaid rolls.
And the numbers are seasonally adjusted to account for that.If memory serves, and it does. Its summer time.
The 9.1% is not a revised number...the Unemployment data doesn't get revised. And government jobs declined.I bet the labor dept spent a long damn night cooking the books and the best they could come up with is a "revised" 9.1% instead of 9.2. Temporary government work like cutting grass on the highway might look like a jobs spike to radical Obamites and I guess it's the best we can do these days.

Labor Force Participation Rate Drops To 63.9%, Lowest Since January 1984

* BLS
* Bureau of Labor Statistics
* Unemployment
While we still await for BLS.gov to finally come back up online half an hour after printing the actual NFP number, here is the one data point that we know for a fact: the labor force participation rate, and the reason why the general unemployment rate declined to 9.1%, just dropped to 63.9%, the lowest in 16 years, or matches the participation rate from January 1984.
I'll wait until next month to see the results. That's usually when we hear that "amazingly, unexpectedly" employment numbers were revised downward from the previous month.

Overall, a crappy report. The UE rate went down because both Employment (from the household survey) and Unemployment went down. Although really, none of the major changes in the household survey were statistically significant.
I'll wait until next month to see the results. That's usually when we hear that "amazingly, unexpectedly" employment numbers were revised downward from the previous month.
Like this month when the previous 2 months were revised UPwards?

Mame this man is the most powerful man in this world
his policies could create millions of jobs

I am very concerned about this stuff and I could care less who the president was

July was revised upward from 85k to 114k. May to June was revised downward from 157k to 145k. We need to be adding a lot more than 114k just to break even.
Oh....I forgot, your the Rabbi
Economy must fail....economy must fail
with respect
these are the numbers that will get BHO re-elected?
Who cares?
An economic recovery is good for the whole country, regardless of your political leanings
I do love that DC has managed to brainwash everyone into calling the economic collapse into a "recovery" despite at not a single point did things get better... Recovery now means "If things get worse slower under Obama it's good news and counts as a recovery."
I wonder how many people wish their health were described as the Obama Recovery... I'm definitely dying, just a bit slower... So I call it a recovery to make myself feel better... LOL.
Oh....I forgot, your the Rabbi
Economy must fail....economy must fail
When you start from the premise that black people can't lead, it's not hard to arrive at the conclusion that with a black person at the helm the economy will fail.
I think its hilarious that rightwinger is still posting his idiotic "more good news" threads for 2 years now and the economy is STILL in the shithole.
From 2009! -http://www.usmessageboard.com/politics/84352-more-economic-good-news-unemployment-rate-drops.html
The unemployment rate is still the same, the debt is up $4.5+ TRILLION, and partisan hacks like rightwinger keep pretending like everything is turing around for the better.
One has to wonder if these fools are ever going to come to the realization that they are full of shit.

When you start from the premise that black people can't lead, it's not hard to arrive at the conclusion that with a black person at the helm the economy will fail.
Then why is this admin instituting policies that reinforce that premise.
A town cant go to non partisan positions because blacks wont know how to vote.
You must lower standards because blacks are not doing well.
You must use race in college admission because blacks dont score well.
WHY?
