Wasting Time With Alex

Sure the donkeys will pretend otherwise
The MSM will be abuzz with news of how employment is picking up or heading in the right direction. Of course, the devil is in the details, and my guess is they will play those details down big-time, but the irrefutable fact is that in the new age of expands socialism, the ability to earn a living is wholly dependant of government:
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch)—Nonfarm payrolls grew by a seasonally adjusted 431,000 in May, but virtually all the new jobs were temporary jobs at the U.S. Census, leaving private-sector hiring very weak, the Labor Department reported Friday. Excluding 411,000 temporary Census workers, payrolls rose by 20,000 in May. According to the survey of 400,000 business establishments, private-sector payrolls increased by 41,000, the fifth straight monthly gain. “A disappointing private payroll number to be sure,” said John Ryding and Conrad DeQuadros of RDQ Economics.
Oooh! There was a gain in the private sector! Who cares that it was but a measly 10% of what the temporary government jobs that joke of a Census project has created and the near trillion dollar patronage bill has garnered so far. Maybe the donkeys can add another 400K people to the census pay roll every month until the November elections.
Watch them focus on this:
The nation’s unemployment rate fell to a seasonally adjusted 9.7% in May from 9.9% in April, according to a separate survey of 60,000 households.
And, like this CNBC article, try their best to downplay or misreport that this:
An alternative measure of unemployment, which includes discouraged workers and those forced to work part-time because of the weak economy, fell to 16.6% from 17.1%.
Only is happening because government is creating all these fake and totally temporary jobs. They are not fooling the people that know better, and this market drop is happening because the people that actually produce things know this is an unsustainable path we are on that will in the end come back to bite us all in the rear.
I also am noticing that the regulars in the MSM all seem to be currently be engaged in a campaign to pretend to be getting though with the WH and the democrats, for their innumerable and constant screw ups, across the board. I pondered if these collectivists that constantly see victory in the failures of the things they believe in, could really be turning the tide and realizing they are being had, but am starting to think this is all a ruse. Frankly I see a pattern where they now attack Obama and the demcorats for their ineptness at everything only to then reverse course, a month or so previous to the elections, and tell us Obama has saved the country! All just in time to minimize the onslaught and the massive losses I see the donkeys and their leftist beliefs taking but a measly 18 months into the new “progressive” era. Have no doubt that this will happen. If you want to argue, argue whether the MSM is in collusion with the WH and the donkeys on this, or being manipulated by them. In either case, I am willing to bet good money that the current reporting on the ineptness and stupidity of the Obama Admin and the donkeys, is going to take a 180 right before the elections, even as things get worse, because the usual MSM suspects simply can not bare to see their side go down in flames. The answer to everything, including their constant failures, after all, is always a bigger government of the elite.
