Reply #42: Not true at all. 9.7 is actually an awesome number and many wish it were alot higher

Think about it, with unemployment at 9.7%, the right wing radio show hosts, which are the though leaders of the party, can still be going on and on about how great it is that Obama has not brought unemployment down to that 8% that he claimed he would. "See, we made this huge mess and he didn't clean it up as fast as he said he would!!! He is a failure for not fixing our fuckups fast enough and we are Heros for making the mess in the first place. Woo Hoo!!!". I can just hear it now. Imagine if it was 12, 13 or even 25%? You would never see the leaders of the party so giddy! It would be like America losing the Olympics times 10. You guys can all wish for the country to fail so that some politicians in your party can get back into power.

So, ignore the fact that the number of jobs being created is increasing and try to keep holding on to any bad news that you can focus on and add conjure up a few more if it will make you feel better. Let me ask you, what will you do when unemployment starts to go down. Pretty horrible scenario for you, eh?
