Jobless rate rises to 8.3 percent.

The unemployment rate ticked up to 8.3 percent in July, reflecting a stagnant economic picture as hiring improved but not by enough to make a dent in the sea of unemployed Americans.
The Labor Department report, in a glimmer of positive news after three straight months of dismal jobs numbers, showed that hiring reached its best level since February, with 163,000 jobs added.

I look for obama to have a huge pep rally and champion the number of jobs created. But will skip the unemployment rate being raised to 8.3%.

Okay now, this happens every week, or just about every week.

It's been happening for a couple of years now.

How much does one want to bet the "adjusted figure" for next week will be a "correction" of 163,000 to 155,000 or something?

Every week during the latter half of Barack Milhous's administration, or just about every week, they always correct that figure for the preceding week.....downward.

And it's always revised downward.

Forty-one months of 8% or more unemployment.

How long as Barack Milhous been in the White House again?

What's admitted to about the jobless rate rises to 8.3 percent

And it's still a 3 point lie.
