Hey the neo cons are saying it is everyones fault.

They can no longer get away with blamming the Democarts so now they still don''t want to take the blame for this mess so they say we are all at fault.

Forget it you lose the storm was coming through out all of 2007 and yet you refused to bow to you masters you know them the American people who vote. Now you are heading into the last leg. Anyone want to bet that in a few months the neo con party starts to move away from the village idiot or at least try to.

It is going to be a blood bath in the Senate.

Jobs lost out of how many still working? Population of US is about 300 million so job loss of 70K on top of 232K the first quarter don''''t seem that startling. News reports Feds and States are hiring except for a few states. MADE IN CHINA gets to me these days.

The report on jobless claims came a day ahead of a report on unemployment for April. Economists expect that report will show that the unemployment rate edged up to 5.2 percent, from 5.1 percent in March. The economy is expected to lose 70,000 jobs, for the fourth straight month of job losses.

The good news is we have long since lost all our well paying jobs to India and China. The jobs we are shedding now can easily be replaced when the next McDonalds or Starbucks opens.
