With that said, if it does not the real question becomes will Romney be able to convince the country that he is the right person to improve the economy despite his appetite for layoffs
His appetite for layoffs that make companies profitable for shareholders who are able to invest or spend the money they make, creating more jobs.
His appetite for layoffs that make companies profitable and allow them to hire more employees.
Well, the rhetoric in one's postings stick with the poster. It is not surprising that you were offended by it. Guilt is a part of the process. If this is merely a perception on others' part, it might take (at least) a post or two of positivity or at least the desire to appreciate something in the right direction even when politically inconvenient. Until then, you're stuck with it.
You mean like you celebrating how wonderful Obamas programs were and denying that it was Christmas taking place?
You want to tell me who was celebrating because you did ask me what I call someone who was..
Either you accused me of doing it, or you were just trolling because in order for me to answer that question, you'd have to provide an example of someone celebrating. I wont make the mistake again by assuming you had something of substance to say.
Look I feel the exact same way that you did. I saw those numbers while at home and thought "Well duh, they are hiring for the season".
But just because someone else is deceiving people doesn't give anyone else the right to do it.
No, just as it's not unusual to see an increase in hiring in November and December.
Correct. It is only a matter of time when one deals with such crap that uses absolutes instead of facts. For that reason, I had posted this, not too long ago:

Well, considering that this is the best November to December increase in private sector job growth in over a decade, the incompetent would be those not realizing that fact. But they sure like to point at others.
Reality check... Private job growth, Nov to Dec going back to 2001 (best and worst, in bold):
2001: -207K
2002: -163K
2003: +113K
2004: +131K
2005: +138K
2006: +175K
2007: +38K 2008: -636K
2009: -102K
2010: +167K 2011: +212K
But then, you've very good reasons to hate any positive signs. You love politics more than you love the economic stability and welfare of this country.
So, you're correct. It is not unusual to see an increase in December. After all, we saw an increase in private payroll in seven out of eleven years in the data above. But as you should be able to tell, such generalizations can lead to misleading opinions as it would be ignoring four of those eleven years when there was a decline. And that was one of the points, along with the size of growth or decline as well. It is why I dislike an absolutist's approach.
I posted the FIGURES.. Do you really need me to tell you Christmas is over? My 8 year old could have told you that
I dont care if you want to live in denial, thats your choice.. but dont expect me to join.
So what you are saying is that because Democrats told a partial truth in December, you're going to tell a partial truth now.
If playing such childish games is what floats your boat I guess....
