This is how the media does it "Days after Obama visit, NC sees jobless rate inch up"
http://www.wral.com/news/state/story/10283260/

"RALEIGH, N.C. — Days after President Barack Obama stumped in North Carolina for his jobs proposals, officials reported Friday that the state's unemployment rate edged up in September."

So, what we have is the "librul media" tying a presidential visit with a horrendous result that occurs in just days, as if by magic.

And I would suspect a good slice of the Raleigh area reads that and jumps to the intended, obvious conclusions.

What Bullshit!

2. "Saddam Hussein is a bad guy and 9/11 changed everything."
With the corporate media it's the same brainwashing shit, just different dates and names.

Thanks for the thread, NRaleighLiberal.

5. actually the fault is almost entirely our state legislature's
they refused to renew the penny sales tax that had been added on a few years ago and thus laid off thousands of state employees and teachers (here teachers are paid almost entirely by the state). Without that loss of government jobs our rate wouldn't have gone up at all.
