    Comparing numbers to 2009 is like comparing Sark to Ty.

    60% of the people working is not good news. The Obama administration wouldn't have changed the way unemployment is counted if the numbers didn't suck so bad.

    We're in recovery summer 5 now and the recovery is almost a phantom of the imagination of the 30% that still think Obama has a clue.

    Matching the lowest rate since the 70's is horrible news no matter how you spin it. Now we need a Reagan to come along and clean things up.

    2009 comparisons are valid because that was the end of the recession, no?

    And what 60% are you talking about? The 62.8% participation rate? The participation rate has been in the 60s forever even during King Ronald the Great's reign.

    Maybe we can fix this by electing another Bush to start another war.

    Who has claimed that being a temp is a bad thing? Many people choose it, especially in tech. Consulting often pays much better than being a permanent employee of some random fortune 1000 company or startup.

    But if a pizza delivery driver wants a better job, let him improve his skillset. This isn't the government's responsibility.

    For a guy that claims people should take responsibility for their own actions, you sure do change your tune if you can spin it into something to blame Obama for.

    If those that want to work, can't find work that fit's their skillset, then they should improve their skillset.

    There are a lot of jobs out there for qualified people.

    You need a link to the help wanted sites?

    As to blaming Bush or Obama, I just find it ironic that all of you morons were looking the other way when Bush was fucking up the economy with his 5 Trillion dollar wars... and now that the economy isn't recovering as fast as you want... it is all Obama's fault.

    Obama's had what, 6 1/2 years to do something, anything to fix it? He hasn't done shit. In fact he's made things much worse with his imbecilic health care changes, while completely ignoring facts like gas staying at FUCKING $4 A GALLON.
