THE SHAM-FUL JOBS REPORT NEEDS OBAMA'S ATTENTION - New York Post

"You've probably already heard that the US lost 240,000 jobs in October. That's the shameful part.

And since the latest massacre in the employment market was made public safely after the presidential election, the Labor Department also decided to own up to another dirty little secret - it had overstated job growth by 179,000 jobs in August and September.

That's the sham.

So the total decline in jobs in the latest count was really 419,000."

Lies, damn lies, statistics, government statistics and damn-lying-government-statistics.
