I don't know if the final exam at the Speaker Boener School of Economics is multiple choice.

Take some Immodium and eat a little less Chick-Fil-A today. You'll be fine.

"contradicts herself"

This is a spokesperson for Romney? Not for long, if she continues to out-contradict her boss! He's the last word in walking back what words he said last, and <i>that</i> is final! Almost always!

I'm sure the Republicans will consider this to be bad news so they can revel in the continuing failure of America (Obama).

At this point in St. Ronnie's First Term of Extreme Awesomeness, the unemployment rate was 7.5%, and somehow he still won 3 months later by 20%. Draw your own conclusions.

For a recession lasting more than four years, see Dr Keynes.

Bill Clinton presided over a 20 million job expansion. Saint Reagan managed only 16 million (loser, idiot, failure). So, based on the facts as we know them, blow jobs create jobs.

Really, how can we afford NOT to? Cuz, like, freedom's not free. Or terrorists will take over the world. And the Bible says so, and...goddammit where's my flag?

We might as well race as fast to the bottom as we can. The sooner everyone feels pain the sooner there might be a chance for a real change for equitable employment. Or not.

Was it still hard after you fell asleep?

Anyone else notice how when the Republicans reacted to "the private sector is doing fine" they said "the <i>economy</i> is NOT doing fine," as if the two things were the same?

How many of these jerbs didn't require you to wear a paper hat?

Do public sector lay-offs have any effect on the unemployment rate because they're not real jobs?

So you're hiring? Where do I send resume? Mine will be the one with crisp $5 bill stapled to it. Wink wink.
