It is a shame that people hate the truth so much that they wish for cooked books in the selective job reports numbers which don't count everyone and downplay the previous inaccuracies.
Oh you are a conspiracy theorist concerning the jobs report number. Waste of time discussing reality with you, carry on.

the truth does not matter.
if the report is good the obama lovers will praise him. his haters will say that the numbers do not reflect those who stopped looking for work.

if romney was in office: his lovers would praise him, his haters will say the numbers do not reflect those who stopped looking for work.

It is difficult to praise a person who is in opposition to our standards.

When you post, you should try to focus on adding something of value to the conversation.

This is wrong. Many, many, many liberals have been critical of the jobs reports and want more done. Please go to the Economic Policy Institute, read Krugman, Read Delong, Read Ygelsias, etc.

It is a bit of a global problem. For example EU has unemployment much higher than ours (12%), and it affects our exports. EU and US are going in opposite directions, which shows what works, and what doesn't. We could speed it up by cutting the coroprate tax rate, and I just dont' get it why GOP won't allow that to happen.

Yep, 75% Repubs and 50% Dems. Although, per Boehner the Dems only got 2% of what they wanted..

Then why does the media and the politicians obsess over the president's policies adding to job creation? Why did the president create his "jobs council" why does he campaign over his "jobs bill" if the congress and president's laws and regulations and policies are not "responsible for employment or lack thereof?"

Simple, the congress' and president's policies create an economic, regulatory and tax climate that either promote private sector growth, or promote their tax and regulatory agendas. Obama promotes his agenda, and to hell with the economy and jobs. what is Obama's agenda now? It's gun control, immigration reform, ObamaCare, green energy, tax increases, abortion, golfing, vacationing, and promoting gay marriage.

Obama's priorities are not improving the economy, not lowering the debt, not controlling runaway federal spending, not signing a federal budget bill, and not reducing the tax and regulatory burden on businesses to promote job creation.

Another "victory" for Obama in leading the nation on the fast track to third world status.
Expect more of it.. Thank you Obamacare
