I was curious to see how the right would spin this negatively.
Hysterical!
How is it spinning if it was going up until this month?

Our entire economy collapsed.
It is only because our government reacted quickly that we didn't have a second Great Depression. I expected the rate to go way over 10%. Now we are going to pull out of this. Amazing really.

Yet, no mention of the total number of hours declining, which means people taking cuts in hours or those finding work can only find low paying part-time hours. No mention of those that have stopped looking for work, in the worst economy ever. Now with rising deficits all hope is gone for any recovery.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The long-battered U.S. job market showed some signs of improvement in July as employers cut far fewer jobs from payrolls and the unemployment rate fell for the first time in more than a year, according to a government report Friday.
The Labor Department reported a net loss of 247,000 jobs in July, the fewest job losses since August 2008. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had forecast a loss of 325,000.
The job loss in June was also revised lower -- to 443,000 job losses from 467,000.
The unemployment rate fell to 9.4% from 9.5% in June, the first decline in that closely watched reading since April of 2008. Economists had expected unemployment to rise to 9.6%.

What was that favorite talking point by the liberals when Bush had 4.0 and going down unemployment?
Oh, thats right.
That doesn't count the ones that gave up filing for unemployment......

I myself, love to see how the left spins it positively. The verbage is impressive.
I don't follow. 9.4 is fairly high, but most economist expect nearly 11% before it gets better.What was that favorite talking point by the liberals when Bush had 4.0 and going down unemployment?

What makes this smell is the number being exceptionally high.

I personally hope it is going down.

Yet when Bush created jobs you were one of those that failed to mention the TYPE of jobs he was creating - dead-end ones....

It's good news as far as we aren't hemorraging new jobs lost like in past months--but the numbers only tell how many drew FIRST time claims for the month--& do not show how many people have looked for jobs--that have just given up--& are now off of the unemployment insurance program--because their unemployment insurance benefits have expired.
I think we are starting to see a recovery in Colorado. Restaurants are busier--a lot of people on the highways & roads--at least in my area. But--it's hard for me to tell--because I live in a tourist area in the mountains. I think a lot of it--is because gasoline prices are much lower than last summer.
I think we will see depressed areas around our country for a long time--while others may start to show signs of real recovery.
