Reuters: Bush: Jobs report shows "vibrant" economy
Bush: Jobs report shows "vibrant" economy
1 hour, 18 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said on Friday the latest employment report showed a "vibrant and strong" economy.

Bush was speaking to reporters after the government reported that U.S. employers added 110,000 new jobs in September, showing a more resilient labor market than previously thought.

"I'm really pleased with the economic news but I don't take good news for granted," Bush said in the Oval Office, reiterating his call for Congress to keep taxes low to promote economic growth.

3. Actually the unemployment rate was unchanged and the only addition to jobs was teachers
Teachers going back to work accounted for what increase in jobs there was.

7. Thanks for pointing that out...it never ceases to amaze me as to the lengths....
..or depths...that these bastards will go to twist the truth...

How about counting the unfortunate bastards that fell off the back-end of benefits?

How about including the price of oil and food in your inflation numbers?

How about you include the cost of your illegal occupation (including your bullshit "supplemental" bills) in the deficit?

What's that? You can't? Why not? Because it will show the ugly truth that you have completely FUCKED this country's economy?

Bunch of g*d-dmaned liars... :grr:

5. Really? Did he say that with a straight face? Of course not, I saw the tape.
This is how he looked:







    President Bush, right, accompanied by Ed Lazear,
    Chairman of the Economic Advisers, makes a statement
    on the economy, Friday, Oct. 5, 2007, in the Oval Office
    in the White House in Washington.


The news about GE cutting jobs plus my ability to think tells me * is full of it.

6. Bet Against The Dollar And Your Golden
If you've offshored your money or business, life is good. This fukwad and his buddies have their money stashed in funds that clip at 10-15%...the only thing they feel are those "damn taxes".

Now if you're a wage slave or on a fixed income...well, hell, that's your problem :sarcasm:

There's truly two Americas out there these days...and the majority are in the screwed catagory...but that doesn't matter cause you don't contribute to the Repugnican party.
