I wondered about that, who says that picture wasnt from the last sale?

[quote=Arraya] Claims in the previous week were revised to an increase of 13,000 to 446,000 compared with the initial estimate of an increase of 11,000 to 444,000. A Labor Department official said that there were more estimates this week because of the holiday on Monday. In addition, some of the increase may be due to administrative delays in reporting claims since the Christmas and New Year holidays.[/quote]

Did they release that little fact back durring the Holidays? Cause I remember alot of talk about how things were all getting better and using the ‘falling’ unemployment numbers to support that argument. Not counting claims doesnt count as ‘falling’ unemployment in my book, and the data sets should have been discarded or highly suspect with large bold letters saying “processing delays make this analysis troublesome and will lead to revision.”

Otherwise, it is just a start of the year stastical fluke, or political cover. It could be either, but explaining away ‘bad’ data cause of ‘errors outside of our control’ after the fact just rubs me the wrong way.

Personally I dont really see alot of what the MSM does. I think the real political miscalculation was the misreading of what the vote in 2008 really was. Alot of independent voters used it as a chance to cast a vote against Bush and his broken policies. So they voted for the guy with a different letter behind his name and a slogan of ‘change’. McSame was what killed McCain.

But then there was no change. Same policies, same winners/loosers, same general everything, just more of it. The real McSame was revieled, and again people voted against it. That is it. Most voters (me included)dont understand how you can fix a problem by doing what got you there over and over again, just in larger amounts. Health care is just noise.

And,

I dont believe the policial bailout of everyone who needed one saved us from anything, other than my children actually enjoying their taxes and bankers/CEOs having to report 6 figure bonus’s instead of 7. All the bad debt, all the speculation, and all the legal graft need to be flushed and the pain of it will be felt. Now we just get to feel it over a longer period of time, and the people who benifited most from the boom dont have to feel the bust as bad. Was that really worth a few trillion?

Having said that, sd_r if you can play the game the way the rules are written, all the more power to you. Dont hate the player, hate the game. I blame the voters who keep voting idiots into congress who keeps making this game dumber and dumber.
