Weekly applications for unemployment benefits jump to 399,000 because of seasonal layoffs
You liberals were celebrating 200,000 new jobs using it as a sign of economic prosperity and how successful Obamas programs were, even though I directly told you those numbers were low and seasonal.. Todays news validated I was correct again.
Will you now come back and use these figures as a representation that the economy has tanked? No, you'll blame the GOP I'm sure..

If liberals are celebrating 200,000 new jobs, what do you call someone who is celebrating 390,000 layoffs?
Well according to some people ther are plenty of jobs and the unemployed are just lazy who refuse to work, yet it's Obama's fault there aren't plenty of jobs.
Technically, the same collective, the "Real Americans" that blames "lazy Mexicans" for taking away jobs from hard working Americans.

"Conservative". Or, as I sometimes call them... Con-men (and women).
The number of people claiming unemployment went up, yes. HOWEVER, the overall unemployment rate is still falling.
Because so many people have dropped out of the labor force. If people see hiring picking up, a lot of these people may start to return to the labor force, causing the unemployment rate to increase.
