"As you can see, the most likely outcome for someone unemployed in May was to continue being unemployed in June. The second-most-likely outcome was to drop out of the labor force entirely — that is, stop looking for work. (That’s part of the reason that today’s labor force participation rate is so low, although the biggest flow into the “not in labor force” category still comes from people who are leaving jobs rather than giving up a fruitless job hunt.)
Finally, the third-most-likely outcome was to find a job. Over all, fewer than one in five people who were unemployed in May were employed in June."

Every other week has Obama's deluded supporters claiming how great the "recovery" is..

It's great for him when Michelle vacations in Spain or when Obama has another press conference.

According to Liberals, Obama owns all positive reports and all negative ones are the result of GW Bush or racism.

Kinda hard to fix the countries problems when the man at the helm's opposition does everything in its power to obstruct,vote down,filibuster etc. any legislation he tries to enact to address the situation, it also doesnt help that Americas Manufacturing base cant move their companies to China and southeast Asia fast enough.
This kind of attitude aint great for the country.

Senate Republicans Block Another Jobs Bill, Face Backlash From American Public
Yeah sure, Obama doesn't have to outsource, he's insourcing Illegal aliens with his Amnesty BS, by promising to allow them to work here if this BS passes.

Millions of lawbreaking Illegal aliens to drive down wages for REAL Americans AND LEGAL immigrants.
Not to mention any Anchor baby parasites they pump out to overwhelm social services here.

You really haven't a clue do you ?

You seem obsessed with the illegal immigration issue which at best represents a mere 2% of the population a number that is probably consistent with any country in the world.Its actually not the big deal you and the rightwing media make it out to be,its basically an artificial news story thats nothing more than a tempest in a teapot., if you are so concerned get out there and take a job away from an illegal You could look at it as your patriotic duty to be picking produce in a field all day or cleaning toilets.
As for not having a clue? if your hateful little rightie diatribe represents the clue i'll pass on having your kind of clue

I have yet to hear one person say the recovery is "great" but it certainly is an improvement from the days when Gomer had us losing 750,000 jobs a month. We`re still waiting for a GOP jobs bill that can be taken seriously.

They have no jobs bill their only concern is taking as much money from the poor and giving it to the rich who then bank all the money in off shore sheltered accounts whereby they dodge paying sizable amounts of taxes,

The fact of the matter is you get what you get. Dont blame liberals or anyone else because the conseveratives and the GOP have not been able to come up with an alternative to Obama.

Blame whomever controls you and your parties. Blame them for putting out the McCain/ Palin and Romney/Ryan product.

Dont blame America for not voting for that group of idiots. Look in the mirror. Don't blame America for your mistakes.

man up

Get your own houses in order, before you think of ever controling the White House.
