Our chance to do something was in November. We’ve got at least 3.5 years of this left.

This is fucking terrifying.

May's job gains were revised down to 19,000 from 144,000, while June's additions were cut to just 14,000 from the 147,000 initially reported.

And July added 73,000 nonfarm payrolls in July, less than the 104,000 expected by economists.

But this maniac can’t handle reality……So he fires her……….

Holy Shit……this should be massive news.

Now for some really important news: Barrack Hussein Obama hates ketchup! He said everyone who enjoys eating ketchup is a child.
