Here's the problem fellow Liberals: no matter what the data shows, it won't be good enough for the Right Wingers here. They're a bunch of Tea Party *****, so even if we had created 160k jobs last month it wouldn't be good enough. The bottom line is that they don't like Obama, and haven't since he was elected.
I like how the facts have been stated multiple times, in this thread, that Obama has now had, what, 27 straight months of jobs growth, but here come the Conservative Goon Squad to tell you that your data is "fudged" or "lies." They only trust data coming from government bureaus if a Republican is in the White House, that's for damn sure.
The fact that the idiot T would try to claim that Federal jobs have been INCREASED since Obama took office when everyone knows that's not true should speak volumes to you. There's no point in trying to convince these people of the truth because the truth doesn't matter to them. They only believe what Roger Ailes and his cronies want them to believe. And when you tell them that, they get so pissed they freak out and start calling you all kinds of names. But it's the truth.
Any way you look at the numbers, there has been a recovery. Grover Norquist even said on "Real Time" that it's been a recovery, he just also turned around and said it was "the worst recovery ever." Which is a really ******* stupid thing to say. "Oh, we're getting better, but not fast enough." Nobody on the Right has the balls to admit that part of the problem is that GW fucked our economy into the shit house. They actually blame the Democrat-controlled Congress.
And don't even get me started on the "jobs" bills that Republicans are claiming Reid is sitting on. Most of them are just straight-up deregulation bills, with no actual money earmarked for jobs. It's just "well, let's take the shackles off of the corporations and HOPE they create jobs with the new money."
That's the ******* problem with the Right Wing. It's not about reality, it's about their fantasy. Just like supply-side or trickle down economics. You have to have faith that the rich people aren't just going to pocket the extra money, which, if you look at the income gap over the last 30 years, is exactly what happened.
