Another leftist comment on the GOOD economic news on the jobs today (fewer jobs being lost and the unemployment rate actually DOWN to an even 5%), and my reply:
"The government bases the rate of unemployment by survaying 60,000 households? Now there's a foolproof way of counting the unemployed! LOL."
Remember "Dumb and Dumber"? Well, leftists are doing their best to emulate that movie as they try to twist basically GOOD economic news to fit their GLOOM AND DOMM view of the world. Do they WANT good economic news? Of course they don't. I still suggest that they consider following the example of the D.C. Madam (who also could not face reality--another reality, by the way, theat leftists refuse to face, which is the unrestrained power they are giving the Federal Government over our lives). See my AOL blog, "The Maverick Conservative".
Do you know how many people are sampled in those POLLS that AOL (and the rest of the media) present as concrete reality on the opinions of the WHOLE American population? The sample is generally about 1,000 people. Presenting that kind of poll as a FACT is a LIE. Yes, the media LIES in the way it presents every such poll as a FACTUAL description of how the "American people" think. I have suggested that the best thing that could happen to this country is if we SABOTAGED all opinion polls by lying to pollsters and/or not cooperating (which may be happening--a GOOD THING). But to suggest that a survey of 60,000 hosueholds is suspect, when it also correlates with GDP data showing sluggish GROWTH in the economy, is DUMB. lol.
