Obama Promised Unemployment Rate at 5.2% After Stimulus… Today It’s at 8.3% Instead (house of representatives, patriot)

LOL if I didn't bump them you would anyway since you're always responding to your own posts!

At least this way you're not talking to yourself!

I like helping people who are desperate for interaction.

Why stop at 15%? If you are going to make up numbers that can't possibly be substantiated you might as well go big.


Something like "Some people say the true unemployment rate is as high as 85%" will make Obama look like a real loser.

I bump them myself because the Liberal OBAMATRONS are too pathetic to mount any rebuttal to them.

They attempt to hide their heads in the sand about their wonderful leader's MISERABLE record.

Naw. Making up numbers is what the left does.

Oh, so you can provide us with some evidence that verifies your claims of a 15% unemployment rate?

Facts are easy to come by:


'Real' Unemployment Rate Shows Far More Jobless

While the national unemployment rate paints a grim picture, a look at individual states and their so-called real jobless rates becomes even more troubling.

The government's most widely publicized unemployment rate measures only those who are out of a job and currently looking for work. It does not count discouraged potential employees who have quit looking, nor those who are underemployed — wanting to work full-time but forced to work part-time. For that count, the government releases a separate number called the "U-6," which provides a more complete tally of how many people really are out of work.

The numbers in some cases are startling.

So liberals, the REAL unemployment rate is 14.9 but that was on August 2 and doesn't include the latest data from July yet which would be released today.

Want to bet it didn't go DOWN?

They're too busy making up lies about Romney to actually discuss their own failed president and the wreckage he's left our country in. And their campaign slogan is "Forward" as though any sane American want four more years of *this*???

Hey, I know, let's talk about homosexuals and Chick-fil-A instead!!

Remember when liberals thought 4.7 George Bush has was bad?
