Yeah, October 5th is the perfect time for "seasonal adjustments"... (Pssst...The "season" doesn't start until November...)
Glad to see you have gotten over your post debate depression.

I'm pretty sure you have NO idea about the whole concept of walking the talk.....but we could talk about which candidate made a larger contribution to the charities of his choice in 2011. Wanna go there?
Of course you don't. Walking the talk is about spending more time doing and less time talking about what you are going to do. It's about actions supporting your words.
Despite howls from some conservatives that data have been tweaked, the news Friday that the unemployment rate fell sharply to 7.8 percent is part of an ongoing growth trend
Perhaps you guys should get your heads out of the dark-place before you accuse someone else of "not knowing what's going on."
I already stated that 7.8% isn't what we'd like it to be. Try reading what I actually write sometime, instead of what you'd like to hear. Is it an improvement? You betcha.
And like I said, only the GOTP would be bummed-out by the improvement. Politics before the good of the people.

Wanna go there?...Yeah... Donating the 10% to your church, (which he is required to do), plus an extra point or two (to shave off more deductions from his Adusted-Gross-Income), is hardly anything to crow about. He's on-record as saying 47% of the American people are scum.

Hardly... I actually still WORK for a living, and sometimes I have to spend some time doing arrangements and scores for concerts, as well as gigging. Sorry I can't be on here full-time to spar with the Neanderthals, but sometimes reality takes priority.
What is sad is that 1/2 of America is willing to do ANYTHING to win. Morality, Honesty and Integrity mean nothing.
I will wait and see how this all adjusts out.
If i believed these numbers....it would be great but something is terribly wrong with the contradicting info.
Do you think LJ will ever be ashamed of what these folks have really done over the last 4 years? I doubt it.
No, what I'm ashamed of is 8 years of Bush Recession, only 3 million jobs created in 8 years; LIES that got us into TWO unnecessary and unpaid for wars; $750 billion unpaid for drug program; $1 TRILLION in unpaid-for tax-cuts for millionaires and billionaires; an administration that was so corrupt that it tortured people; outed covert CIA operatives; and ended up with about 6 of it's party behind bars for corruption, graft, and peddling influence.
1) 3 million good jobs versus 5 million lower paying jobs.
2) The Left said the Afghanistan war was the good war.
3) The Left passed Medicare Part "D"
4) The Left signed off repealing the Clinton tax hikes. And it freed millions of lower income Americans from income taxes
5) Torture and redaction have still continued under Obama, the press just chooses to neglect the story.
6) The Left loves outing actual CIA operatives, I attended a lecture in the 80's where they applauded a former agent for revealing coworkers and techniques.
7) A President that was impeached beats six indicted.
Only 2 Presidents have been impeached.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
1) 3 million good jobs versus 5 million lower paying jobs.
You have NO proof whatsoever that the 3million jobs--in 8 years--were any better than the 5.2 million private-sector jobs that have been created.
2) The Left said the Afghanistan war was the good war.
The Left.......... ("They voted for it too...") That's the best you got?
3) The Left passed Medicare Part "D"
The Left.......... ("They voted for it too...") That's the best you got?
4) The Left signed off repealing the Clinton tax hikes. And it freed millions of lower income Americans from income taxes
The Left.......... ("They voted for it too...") That's the best you got? (Psst..The Right signed off on the Reagan tax hikes, and the Bush-41 tax hikes; and the Bush-43 tax hikes)
5) Torture and redaction have still continued under Obama, the press just chooses to neglect the story.
The Left.......... ("They did it too...") That's the best you got?
6) The Left loves outing actual CIA operatives, I attended a lecture in the 80's where they applauded a former agent for revealing coworkers and techniques.
The Left.......... ("They did it too...") That's the best you got? You got a link? We're supposed to take it on your word that "you attended a lecture"?
7) A President that was impeached beats six indicted. Only 2 Presidents have been impeached.
Sorry, but they weren't "indicted"...They were CONVICTED and sent to prison. Tell me again how SIX CONVICTIONS trumps one stupid politically-motivated impeachment that went nowhere, and resulted in NO CONVICTION?
