Tempest68 realizes that he is using old false numbers - I've pointed it out to him/her at least 3 times with a link to the current official bls page. All he/she has left is lies. The democrats have no legitimate reason to remove Walker so they lie.

You yourself have stated BLS is apparently inaccurate and Walker's numbers are the real numbers, so let's use those

Using Walker's own numbers, the state created a net loss of -9,700. You can try to spin it all you want, but the fact is Walker's far right wing agenda has completely sent Wisconsin into the crapper.

Yet again Tempest68, you are lying.

Your link is well over a month old and using non-updated BLS numbers.

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

Official government #s say Wisconsin has had 9 straight months of job growth.

You lie a second time. I didn't say the BLS was inaccurate in general, I said their original survey was where they only polled 3.5% of businesses, of which GE was the biggest employer that just outsourced to China (yeah Obama's buddy who advises him on keeping jobs here). The BLS got more data and the numbers were great.

Democrats have nothing on Walker, which is why people like Tempest68 have to keep lying.

Catch up, really, using old link from March and now April?

And no need to deflect, he said 250,000 jobs by 2015, did you miss that? you were up to 2 months off on your links, but now you are 2 1/2 years off on the end date of what he said?

Why are you holding Walker to this standard, when obama said that UE would NOT go above 8%....but yet it has and UE has stayed there.


You are really embarrassing yourself, and all the dems...

The lying from you just doesn't stop, does it? Though that is typical of the radical right when they are in complete desperation mode,...

"In April 2012, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 32 states and the District of Columbia and decreased in 18 states. The largest over-the-month increase in employment occurred in Indiana (+17,100), followed by Texas (+13,200) and Georgia (+7,800). The largest over-the-month decrease in employment occurred in Maryland (-6,000), followed by Wisconsin (-5,900)"

You are using outdated numbers, because all you have against Walker is BS.

Jobs in Wisconsin in March 2012, 2,856,829

Jobs in Wisconsin in April 2012, 2,863,590

Therefore, according to the BLS' updated numbers Wisconsin has added jobs over that time period.

P.S. You do realize, that the more you deliberately distort, the less all posters trust you?

You really need to keep your story straight, are you talking about yearly or monthly?

You continue to jump back and forth, spinning and spinning....

But, for the 3rd time in a row, you need to bring yourself in May 2012, not April 2012, and definitely not March 2012.

However, your twisting is pretty good, but when the entire world is talking about how Wisconsin and the May 2012 revised number show a job GROWTH of 25,000+ jobs....even by the BLS.....

"Wisconsin lost 12,500 jobs last year, ranking it tops among all states in lost jobs, according to revised numbers released Tuesday by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The numbers reflect non-farm jobs measured in January 2011 and this January. Just five other states registered an overall job loss in the period, with Wisconsin's losses far outflanking everyone else. Missouri was next at 4,100 jobs lost."

Revised figures show Wisconsin lost most jobs in nation in 2011

Those are not outdated numbers, they are the most recent figures from the BLS. Wisconsin is -5,900 for the month of april.

Keep on spinning and twisting, the proof is right there in black and white, Walker's radical right wing agenda is destroying Wisconsin.

Well, well. Isn't it amazing what happens when union members are given a CHOICE of whether they want to contribute?

You will see this number rise as people realize they'd rather keep that $400-1200 a year for themselves...just like what happened in IN.

This needs to happen in other states as well.

I hope it does as the GOP gains even more governorships this fall.
