Had you said "according to the Washington Post, the numbers are based on surveys of households" you would have been correct....because that (appears to be) what the article said (incorrectly however).

You said "Here is an excert from the Washington Post link. The numbers are based on surveys of households."

Which is also (identically) incorrect.



Youre talking bullshit again.....Probably because you hate to admit Romney got it wrong.

The Washington Post is correct.

(I never mentioned Romney. Keep trying).

And I don't care personally if Romney gets in or Obama does. It doesn't change my life in any measurable way. What I care about is the clear and more than obvious bankrupting of our country. Neither of them have a viable plan for stopping the bleeding.

Interesting, that 800,000 people suddenly found jobs in the last 30 days when the Federal Reserve just 3 weeks ago announced "Unlimited" QE3 for fear of the economy falling into another rat hole.

Doesn't that seem a little unusual in this current economic environment?

And the sheep hear "it's all good" and that's the way it is.

No personal research, just blind acceptance of what they read in the papers (or the net).

"Amazing" doesn't even cover my astonishment.

These are the same people that spout off "if I ran my personal finances the way the govt. does...." blah blah blah, not realizing that, until Obama, household debt grew faster, by a long shot, than all federal or state debt combined.

I am so glad my butt is covered. The shit storm that's going to land in just a few years is going to stun most (not the ones however, who actually read more than the headlines).

It absolutely blows me away how little most understand finance and economics.





And yet no one has thought to question this before when the numbers were going down?

Absolutely amazing!

If he Rommey really thinks the way he has shown he thinks, if he is elected we will
be at war with every nation or country that does not agree with him!

People I understand having a black President is hard and I understand you want him out (i do not), but if you elect that
NUT your asking for everything you will get, this is no JOKE!!!!!!!!

He does not even understand why the jobless rate has dropped!!!!!

He does not understand that 47% of the people work their *&^ off and will do anything
legal to feed and clothes their families!!!!

If he does not get this he will not get anything!

Got it?

best regards

Mons

I've been questioning it for 14 years hon....looooong before Obama showed up (and I should have been paying attention long before that).

Not much is rosy behind the velvet curtain.

This isn't, regardless of however many choose to believe otherwise, about Obama.

I'm not into that...it's fairly obvious from the copied post in mine as well as your fabricated one as to a posit.

It's fairly clear (I highlighted it for you in case it wasn't obvious...knowing that you arbitrarily deducted my words....I'm more than confident you're clear on what you did...ain't exactly brain surgery) you're capable of discerning....however, knowing that you arbitrarily fabricated posts, I'm all the more certain you understand what you did. It's all good.

And I won't stoop to calling you names as you have..I think you're actually pretty damn smart. Just terribly misguided.

(Smart enough to attempt to dissuade).

Failingly.

It's all good. Most can tell the difference.

It's all there. For anyone to deduce without any assistance from me.

Scroll is your friend.

Following the story, Welch sent an e-mail to Reuters' Steve Adler and Serwer saying that he and his wife Suzy, who have jointly written for Reuters and Fortune in the past, were "terminating our contract" and will no longer be sending our "material to Fortune." Reuters' story about Welch's tweet quoted money manager and blogger Barry Ritholtz, who said Welch's comments were laughable. Reuters wrote that Ritholtz comments were referring to allegations that Welch regularly manipulated GE's earnings during his tenure as CEO in order to best Wall Street profit estimates.

http://finance.fortune.cnn.com/2012/10/09/jack-welch-quits/

Welch suggests data an attempt to recover from debate

* White House slams Welch tweet as "ludicrous"

* Welch stands by his words but says he "not accusing anyone of anything"

How is that not an accusation?

The tweet was by no means Welch's first criticism of Obama on his Twitter feed, where he has regularly spoken out in favor of Romney. During the presidential debate in Denver, Colorado, on Wednesday night, Welch tweeted: "HOW can anyone vote for Obama after this performancehe has demonstrated his incompetence."

"This guy is the guy that's telling me the books are cooked? That's hilarious," said Barry Ritholtz, CEO and director of equity research at Fusion IQ in New York, which manages about $300 million in assets. Ritholtz, one of the first to respond to Welch's tweet, was referring to the allegation that during his tenure at GE, Welch sometimes used the GE Capital finance unit to sell quickly assets such as real estate and ensure that the largest U.S. conglomerate regularly beat Wall Street profit estimates.

Of course...so you trim the post, removing key words to arbitrarily change the subject.

Good call there bud...nice work.

Cumulative change in Foodstamp and Disability v NFP

What the fuck does that even mean?   Why are foodstamps and disabled counted in the same catagory  (so every disabled vet gets foodstamps? every paraplegic who fell off a dam they were constructing, does old lady Romney get foodstamps AND disability?)

v NFP.

Natural Family Planning?

It is meaningless horseshit near as I can pencil it out. 



If that post was a horror movie, it would be titled "They only come out of Blogs".
