Re: Obama Facing Fraud Charges for Manipulating Jobless Numbers Before Election
Can we please go back to the original formula and state what the numbers are? This way we have a historical comparison.

Or maybe it would be great to set up a simple web site and let people use the old formula, or the new formula, or some variation of formulas, but have it show how we are doing now compared to other years based on the SAME formula....

Re: Obama Facing Fraud Charges for Manipulating Jobless Numbers Before Election
Investigations have begun into whether unemployment numbers heading into the 2012 U.S. presidential election were manipulated.

The jobless rate unexpectedly dropped to 7.8% in September 2012 from 8.1% the month earlier, the Labor Department reported on Oct. 5 of that year, one month before the presidential election. The median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg at the time projected an increase to 8.2%.

The report at the time also showed employment in the household survey conducted by the Census Bureau jumped by 873,000 in October, the biggest gain since June 1983, excluding the annual Census population adjustments.

Jack Welch, the former chief executive officer of General Electric Co. charged in October 2012 that the unemployment report had been manipulated to help President Barack Obama’s re-election effort. He was attacked for his suggestion with Labor Secretary Hilda Solis saying the accusation was “ridiculous”.

Maybe a couple of guys were walking down the road and they decided to change the unemployment numbers.

Re: Obama Facing Fraud Charges for Manipulating Jobless Numbers Before Election
Seriously, Nixon used the IRS to target individuals and that was outrageous, but this president is far worse. He has used the IRS to target large groups of American who oppose him. This is what dictators do.

Much of what is administration has done is what dictators do, because Obama is a dictator.

But if you look at what the MSM has allowed him to do so far, what makes anybody think they are going to turn on him?
