The economy is getting better all the time. Just think how well we might have been doing by now if the Republican's would have done what's right for the country, rather than what's right for their party?



THE number of jobs available in the United States has risen to its highest level in four years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said this week, providing more evidence that the job market is slowly recovering.

There were 3.8 million job openings at the end of June, up 105,000 from the previous month and the most since July 2008. That is also 1.6 million more openings than when the market hit bottom in July 2009…

And that is with "Real Americans" making every effort to keep it down, so their guy can have an edge in the elections.

Yeah, after all those billions of jobs Obama and his super majority congress and senate created during the first two years of his presidency.

And now poor, poor, poor Obama only holds the senate and the presidency.... sniff, sniff

Admit it, the man-child called Obama is waaaaaayyyyy over his head.

Well folks already put in all that work filling out form after form for food stamps and the like to get on the dole. What's the point of working now? They put in the hard work according to them already. Now it's just a matter of draggin your butt to the mailbox once a month. Of course the new call of duty will be coming out soon. Wonder if the government will subsidize it for all the po folks??

How long has unemployment been extended now? I lost count. When you pay folks to not work this is what happens. Funny how the swooners are touting jobs available. Clueless is all one can say.

Its no coincidence that as the stimulus dies down, the economy gets better. I've been saying thats what would happen for the last several years.

So, I think the real question is....if there are 3.8 million job openings right now, why are they not filled?

Could it be they get more for sitting on there A$$?
