** what makes you think it's a lie?
seems to me to be a very
straightforward associated press
article, full of facts, some
expressed in numbers:
57,000 more have jobs in sept
new claims for unemployment down
5,000 last week
american workers' wages and
benefits up 1% last quarter,
which is a slight improvement
over 0.9% the previous quarter
perhaps this was just lame-brained
sarcasm on your part.
funny the twerp doesn't mention
a few other little economic
issues:
large clinton budget surplus has
vanished, to be replaced by a large
shrubbo budget deficit
tax cuts which mostly benefit the
well-to-do and wealthy, not the
large numbers of regular folks
who are still without jobs
balance-of-payments problem
