US Jobless claims fall to 4 decade low

[sealybobo]

That was then this is now. After that the bush family fucked up the Clinton surplus and Obama fixed the bush great recession.

It is indeed a real formula. It is definitely not a lie. Because I never lie. Ever.

So couch protester said:
Yeah, he sure did fix it alright, I mean contain the situation alright.

So, ok, we understand. You like an economy where we are loosing over 500,000 Because you are a con tool, and you can always find some bat shit crazy con web sites where you can cut and paste. Cause, of course, being a congenital idiot con tool, you have no ability to make an actual argument. Way over your head.
And why that Obama guy would initiate policies that would stop all that misery of the people out of a job is well beyond you. Cause, being a con tool, you hate the middle class.
You see, couch potato, it is sad that a dipshit like you can only cut and paste drivel from attack sites. Sad for you, that is. Because you have proven yourself to be of no importance at all.

Seems to me Obama is and has put us back on track. You guys remember wanted to elect John McCain and stay the course. Don't forget that.

Yellen:

Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen on Monday sketched a generally positive picture of the economy and labor market, saying Friday’s dismal jobs report was “concerning” but policymakers still plan to gradually raise rates this year.

She did not specify whether a rate hike at the Fed’s June 14-15 meeting was still feasible, but financial markets are giving less than 5% odds of such a move and Yellen said nothing to attempt to alter that view. She also didn’t tip her hand on the likelihood of a July rate increase, though fed fund futures say the chances are about 31%.

Generally, however, Yellen emphasized the cumulative labor market’s progress and voiced only measured concern about Friday’s report, which revealed that just 38,000 jobs were added in May, a nearly six-year low. The Labor department also revised down its estimates of April employment additions to 123,000.

“Although this recent labor market report was, on balance, concerning, let me emphasize that one should never attach too much significance to any single monthly report,” Yellen said in a speech at the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia. She noted that other key labor market indicators, such as initial jobless claims, have remained low and public perceptions of the labor market based on consumer surveys “remain positive.”

Poor boy just posts con talking points. It is not in his pay grade to determine truth. And besides, truth is too often opposite of what he WANTS to believe. But we must remember, he is a congenital idiot. So it is not his fault. Just bad luck.

You should know, or you are like most Progressives, extremely accomplished at living in denial that Barney Frank and Chris Dodd were responsible for many of the changes forced on Fannie and Freddie. Barney and Chris forced regulation changes on Fannie and Freddie which required they increase the percentage of sub-prime, ie high risk, loans in their portfolios.

By doing so, that required that all standards be lowered for all loans. That also led to the "no doc" or "liar" loans. The INTENT (Progressives always cloak their loonie ideas in,,,IT MAKES US FEEL GOOD) terminology. Common sense has no place among Progressives.

Between you, Rsherme and G5000, I don't know which is the bigger fool for Progrogressives...well, it's certainly possible too that you are all one and the same poster with a lot of socks.

True too, studies have shown that Progressives are reluctant to view or consider view opposed to their own whereas, Conservatives are much more likely to consider and view those views opposed to their own.


Bush Called For Reform 17 Times In 2008
Somehow our ever vigilant media has failed to notice this press release from September 19, 2008 From White House.

(Maybe if the White House had posted this at the Daily Kos our media may have noticed it.)
The Administration’s Unheeded Warnings About the Systemic Risk Posed by the GSEs


For many years the President and his Administration have not only warned of the systemic consequences of financial turmoil at a housing government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) but also put forward thoughtful plans to reduce the risk that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would encounter such difficulties.

President Bush publicly called for GSE reform 17 times in 2008 alone before Congress acted. Unfortunately, these warnings went unheeded, as the President’s repeated attempts to reform the supervision of these entities were thwarted by the legislative maneuvering of those who emphatically denied there were problems.

2001

April: The Administration’s FY02 budget declares that the size of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is “a potential problem,” because “financial trouble of a large GSE could cause strong repercussions in financial markets, affecting Federally insured entities and economic activity.”

2002

May: The President calls for the disclosure and corporate governance principles contained in his 10-point plan for corporate responsibility to apply to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. (OMB Prompt Letter to OFHEO, 5/29/02)

2003

January: Freddie Mac announces it has to restate financial results for the previous three years.

So what? You're a piece of shit. You posted how Bush warned Congress that GSE reform was needed. No sooner were you shown that Republicans were in charge of Congress, Republicans failed to get Bush a GSE reform bill to sign into law, and Republicans failed to prevent the economic collapse which ensued; so you try to switch the debate to Barney Frank, one single member of the minority party who did not block a single GSE reform bill, which had Republicans gotten to Bush early on, there would have been no Great Recession.

 

[Faun]

President Bush publicly called for GSE reform 17 times in 2008 alone before Congress acted.

And Democrats gave him a bill to sign.

Republicans? They controlled the Congress until 2007 and refused to do anything about it.

Leave it to brain-dead conservatives to blame the party which got a bill to Bush's desk but ignore the party which didn't after 6 years.

And I agree, absolutely, with your assessment:
As RATIONAL PEOPLE, WE KNOW: the truth is the truth. The con's job, which they accept once told what to believe, is provided to them as what to do. Their job. Because, like Markle, they are stupid. They argue the talking points they are given, as good con tools.
No other group is willing and able to accept any groups talking points. Liberals actually value truth. And if you lie, they will figure it out, and be angry at whoever lied to them. Cons, on the other hand, never care about being lied to. They are part of a group think mentality, and need "knowledge", which to them is what they are told in the form of talking points. And if you can finally corner them, prove their point wrong, they get angry. But not because they were lied toby whoever gave them the untrue talking point. They get angry at you because you have proven them wrong, and simply go directly back to the talking points.
So, it is a really simple existence for cons:
1. Receive talking points.
2. Automatically believe talking points.
3. Never, ever question talking points.
4. Try to spread talking points
5. Believe you are now smart, because you have these wonderful new talking points.
6. Never, ever have a rational argument because you were given the talking points and were told to believe them.

Pathetic. But for a perfect example of the above existence of a con tool, observe Markle.

'Frightening' number of unemployed have stopped looking for work

"This is a tale of two economies," Express CEO Bob Funk said in a statement. "It's frightening to see this many people who could work say they have given up."

The results come just a few days after a government report showed that the unemployment rate fell to 4.7 percent in May, but the drop came primarily because of a sharp decline in the labor force participation rate. The number of people of all ages whom the government considers "not in the labor force" swelled by 664,000 to a record 94.7 million Americans, according to Labor Department data.

Job creation, after averaging over 200,000 for much of the recovery, has slowed considerably this year. May saw just 38,000 new jobs, part of a trend in which payrolls have grown an average of 116,000 over the past three months and less than 150,000 for all of 2016.

The unemployment rate is only one criteria for measuring the health of the economy. Other criteria include the rate of growth which has been anemic for nearly all of BO's term. Another is the wealth gap which has exploded under BO, wage growth which has been stagnant also with BO. So go ahead and thank him for more poor people employed in low end jobs if you want.

Oh but guys like Trump are slick. They don't hire illegals. They hire legal companies who hire illegals. That way Trump and ROMNEY can pretend to be innocent.

None

Illegal immigrants did lawn care for Mitt Romney

So we know the last two Repubican nominees were pro illegal immigrants. One hired illegals and the other one got up in front of America and told us we need them because we are too lazy.

Now I know you won't find this a credible source but don't expect to read this stuff on Fox pal.

Do not tell me about the wealth gap that we were warning you about for decades. OMG! And don't try to put that on Obama. Unfuckingbelievable. Really.
