6. 'Denial' ain't a river in Egypt.

"... it's not great"???

This is not a good jobs report, let alone 'great' ... you got that right.

But to castigate Huffington Post (or any other media outlet -- AP is the source for HP report) for telling the truth, well, that is just denial of the gravity of the employment situation.

'Treading water' while 12 million plus are out of work and millions more are underemployed is 'bad'.

Now, you can certainly blame Repuglican obstructionism in Congress for these dismal numbers, but there is no getting around that we are still in a recession as far as most working Americans are concerned.
