Liberals are either so enamored with skin color or just flat out not that bright or both.

Yada, yada, yada. Only a complete fool or an blind partisan would not recognize the stunning improvement in the economy and the labor market. Which are you? Or are you both?

Regarding your numbers.........you have 319,000 leaving the labor force and a drop of labor participation of .2%
Couldn't this be attributed to the fact that 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 per day and retiring?
After all that's 300,000 a month and would pretty much account for the number drops you have showcased?
When you say "Thanks Obama", Are you saying that Obama is responsible for the boomers turning 65 and leaving the labor force?

Facts? LOL. It's apples and oranges with respect to the surveys and blatant BS on your part. Labor looks solid and labor is only one part of the data. Every indicator is shouting "recovery". I'll rephrase it: only a complete, biased ignoramus would continue to deny the economic recovery that has taken place under Obama. End of discussion.

People leaving the labor force does not eliminate the need for jobs..

If a baby boomer leaves a job, this has to be filled by someone else unless the demand for employment is falling, which isnt good for the economy or the point of the thread

Since you guys have no credibility anymore heres some help.

Hold on: Jobs report wasn't so great after all

I guess when you don't work and suck the teet of the middle class it's easy to cheer for a Moron.

one of the indicators you posted was a strong work market..

You do know that a strong stock market is an indication of just the opposite, correct?

Ever hear of Chainsaw Al? Everytime a company hired him to FIRE employees, their stocks climbed substantially.. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS lost their jobs..

And you now thanking Obama for the price of oil is a joke considering I bet last year you were saying he had nothing to do with the cost of oil..
