Am I right?

2. LOL..."not very good," boy oh boy...the media just won't tell the truth.

How about these headlines for a change:

Jobs plummet to all time low.

Economy in the shitter.

Don't bother looking for a job.

Unemployment still climbing.

Bush's jobless worst ever.

No plan for new jobs from Republican convention, but new plans to character assassinate all day long.



Any suggestions welcomed.

3. Can I say it? Please? Please?

"Dun't....be....an...economic....girlyman."

Let's all take a few steroids, strip down, cover ourselves with baby oil, and wait for the GOP economic miracle Ahnuld promised us was coming....

4. Blaming Charley

as if all the lost jobs were in Florida.

Well, if they were, then those people in Florida had better look and see which candidate will truly address their concerns and get them back to work.

5. The monthly job report is tomorrow

This today is the weekly report on initial claims for unemployment compensation.

Tomorrow's report will tell you how many jobs were created in the last month. Anything less than about 150,000 new jobs in a month is actually a net loss since it takes that many just to provide jobs for all the new people entering the labor market -- immigrants, students, etc.
