Private sector job growth slumps in May - Yahoo! Finance (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Private-sector-adds-38000-rb-3252538729.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=1&asset=&cc ode - broken link)=

Liberals: Virginia Tech graduated 5,100 seniors this May just as a basis for comparison. So, no, liberals, 38,000 is nothing to be happy about.

To the conservatives on here: no, Obama isn't failing, but Keynesianism is...the same school of economic thought utilized by Republican presidents.

Obama = Keynesianism which means they are BOTH failing.

Well, McDonalds should have hired 62K MORE workers this month to bump up those numbers like they did last month.

From the article...
Quote:
That report is expected to show a rise in overall nonfarm payrolls of 180,000 in May, slowing down from a gain of 244,000 the month before. Private payrolls are expected to come in at 205,000.
How in the world can private payroll > overall non-farm payroll?

I'm waiting for the kickoff of Recovery Tour 2011. The 2010 tour was such a success!

The government has been cutting jobs for a year or so now.

Well, that is true. Government jobs have declined since April 2009. It looks like government payroll shrunk by about 25K.

The "tour" will get rolled by the Palin Bus Tour of America.

It's sad how the left will continue to try and explain all this and tell us it's really good news along with the major improvement in the housing market, energy and food costs, etc.

Can't they admit that obama was a HUGE mistake? They voted for him because he's partially black and that made them feel good about themselves in spite of the fact he's the least experienced president in modern memory with few accomplishments to his name. He was voted in with a smile and a shoeshine and these fools were punk'd. Again.
