Well! Unemployment numbers just released and guess what....
Shrub caught blowing smoke and lies one more time with his all is good pronouncements. Nonfarm payroll up....6,000 as opposed to projected 68,000. Hourly workweek contracting..meaning people aren't working and making money to buy anything and make this economy grow and add workers. As the talking head on CNBC said...economy is is real trouble and jobs aren't there.

And here we have a president that wants his rich CEO's to get tax breaks, has a VP that is in hiding because he faces criminal charges...and a Prez that undertook actions in his own business dealings that he now says is bad.

But the real cincher for the voters to consider this fall is the denial for the elderly to get a presciption drug bill. Congress gets a free ride with their drugs, but the Republicans voted down for the citizens to get the same benefit. And one thing for sure, one class of people that gets out and vote, is the retired....so Shrub and Cronies, you have one pissed off group of people. Add this non-vote for drugs and then let them see their retirement funds (401K) going up in smoke(A Shrub Speciality) and you will have a cake walk for your party this fall.
