Payrolls sink 159,000, worst job loss in 5 years
Hidden unemployment rises to 11%, highest in 14 years

By Rex Nutting, MarketWatch

Last update: 11:22 a.m. EDT Oct. 3, 2008

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - Main Street was really hurting even before Wall Street's latest illness, the government reported Friday.

The U.S. economy lost 159,000 jobs in September, the worst since March 2003, the Labor Department reported Friday.
The economy has now lost 760,000 jobs this year, further evidence that the economy was in a recession even before the financial market crisis of the past few weeks...

==========

So instead of bolstering Main Street, Congress lets Wall Street continue its fradulent, lying ways.

REALITY CHECK: PALIN WRONG ON DARFUR DIVESTMENT
October 02, 2008

PALIN TONIGHT: “We have a $40 billion investment fund, a savings fund called the Alaska permanent fund when I and others in the legislature found out that we had hundreds of millions of dollars in Sudan we called for divestment so we wouldn't be doing anything that could be seen as condoning activity in Darfur. That legislature hasn't passed (it) yet but it needs to because all of us as individuals and humanitarians and as elected officials should do all we can to end those atrocities in that side of the world.”

FACTS: PALIN’S ADMINISTRATION WAS COMPLICIT IN KILLING DARFUR DIVESTMENT BILL
