This guy is so out of touch it's unreal. He has no shot.
Positive? Really? You must be standing in front of Obama's OUTSOURCED campaign bus, listening to more lies on the the campaign trail.

More people on disability than got actual jobs. That would be more going out than coming in, which is a NEGATIVE.

Why does he continue to cite the number of jobs which have been created in the past 28 months?????

He's been President for almost FORTY-TWO months!!!!

Why can't he tell the truth?

Also, he admitted recently that there are indeed no 'shovel-ready' jobs, another whopper of a lie.

There are plenty of them out there, but being subservient to the Al Gores and Governor Moonbeams of the world is the only reason why they don't exist.

Are they govt employees? Because that's about the only sector seeing any sort of promotion.

Not to burst your bubble, but for every anecdotal story you have, I have one that shows the economy is not positive.

My former employer, who had to lay me off, just had her house foreclosed on. A long-time business in my former small town just went bankrupt, putting all the employees out of business, and destroying a family dream. OK, your turn now.

It's nice you're doing well, but most people aren't. Denying it just sounds foolish, dude. This jobs report is just a reflection of how poorly the economy is doing.

Anyone remember back in '08 when Obama promised very low unemployment around this time? (mid-2012) Unemployment is still high right now. Until Obummer comes up with a miracle plan for the next few months, he doomed us.

Bush isn't on the 2012 ballot. And if 50.1 percent of the 52 percent blaming OBooBoo vote against him, both men graphed are ex presidents 1/20/2013.

I see the Outsourcer in Chief is ripping the positive jobs report

I see the Insourcer in Chief just potentially offered jobs to 800,000 illegals....
