Anything over 7% means Obama is a one term President. That's a FACT!

Unemployment went up for 2 years under Obama and that's a FACT! Unemployment would have gone down faster and settled at a lower rate if Obama wasn't such a socialist boob and that's another FACT!

There is an appearance that employment is picking up and that is good. I wouldn't go be attributing it to Obama or his policies. He is the reason it fell so low. Housing is still in very bad shape and the government spending is still way out of control. The stock market has little to do with the shape of the economy. The Fed is likely to raise interest rates soon and that will be a burden on the market. There is too much liquidity in the market. We may get that correction in the market of which many have been speaking. The Libya strikes backing the "rebels" of who we know little to nothing doesn't seem very effective at this point. I was hoping for a swift resolution, but we waited too long. Libya was folding and Gaddafi was asking to leave weeks ago and now he his rule seems more firm. I think we should have told the "Arab League" to do the heavy lifting from the beginning. This may be a huge mess. It is a sizable mess now, but it could be overwhelming if no resolved positively. Then we have to discover just who the organized "rebels" really are. Too much way up in the air for cheerleading Ken.

Even if the U.S. created 200,000 jobs every month for 40 months straight, it would take over three years just to be back where we were before the recession started. The real unemployment rate is more likely 15%. When you include part-time workers who want full-time work and those people who given up looking for work.

8.8 % is a two year low? That seems more like a Barry Soetoro spin of terrible employment conditions then a reasonable fact. The highest unemployment rate in decades would seem more like the facts. Do you enjoy spreading Soetoro propaganda as facts? The fact would be unemployment rate declines slightly despite FED buying treasury debt because no one else will buy it. Monetizing the debt just decreases the value of the country's currency. Never winds up well for the country or it's citizens. Never ever! citizen chartseer

Unemployment hasn't been above 8.5% since 1983 yet you claim your biased spin as fact. When is a fact not a fact? When kenny tries to spin biased propaganda as fact. The jobless rate is still the highest it has been since 1983. Now that is fact! Even if it was slightly higher the past two years. citizen chartseer
