I HOPE, Hope is on the Way

Disastrous Job figures for our Chimperor's Administration. But that is the ONLY good news.

From CNN/Money:

The Labor Department report showed only 32,000 new net jobs added to payrolls during the month, down from a revised 78,000 jobs that were added in June. The unemployment rate fell to 5.5 percent, an improvement from the 5.6 percent reading in June.

Economists surveyed by Briefing.com forecast a 243,000 gain in jobs, and the unemployment rate staying unchanged at 5.6 percent, while economists surveyed by Reuters had a median jobs growth forecast of 228,000, with a range of estimates between 200,000 and 300,000.


They'll try at the White House, but there is NO WAY they can make it good. This is bad for the country, but even worse for Bush and great talking points for Kerry/Edwards (the ONLY good thing to come out of it).

Wow, that is BAD.
