      Perez you are such a douche. You sit here and blame this admin. for everything. Why don't you look a little closer. It might just be the do nothing liberal congress. Seriously v me what the hell have they done. The approval rating for this congress is lower than any have been for the other congresses. Your speaker needs to get her ass in gear and do something. Besides porkbelling all the bills that come her way. Damn you are blind.

      considering Europe's unemployment rate is 3 times that amount, 5.7% is low. Please stick to gossip about Hollywood because you have no clue what you're talking about.

      need to check out the bureau of labor statistics website for the facts and historical data of this country's unemployment rate and how it goes up and down. it was 4.6% for the past 2 years - a record low. get over it. i am sure YOU are drawing unemployment too, perez, even though you blog and bash people LIKE it is your job…or even A job. www.bls.gov educate yourself.

      57

      are the majority of the readers here stupid and/or ignorant?! obviously it's at an all time HIGH!! and no, we are not celebrating! perez is being FACETIOUS!! additionally, if you don't like perez or the fact that he is human and is sometimes too busy to proofread then go look at another site. why does everyone expect perfection when they themselves aren't exactly that?! sheeesh!!

    58. annoy says – reply to this

      you should really stay out of politics perez. you have no clue what you are talking about. its better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

      I am thanking you very much George W Bush for sending so many jobs to India! Even though we do not make anywhere as much money as the Americans you have put out of work, we are grateful for every rupee you have sent our way! And for you unemployed Americans, my cousin Apu has a job opening at the Kwik-E-Mart. You will work for minimum wage forever and will not have healthcare but hey, beggers can't be choosers! At least you might be able to pay your lot rent.

      Re: bella – Please check the unemployment rate when Clinton was president. Wait, no, you're a liberal, facts mean nothing to you. I'll tell you then, it was roughly the same.

      ok in some countries the employment rate is 25%. stop crying a river. so it went up a little. surprising how you havent reported about how gas prices have LOWERED. i filled up for 3.99 a gallon yesterday. and how the surge in iraw is actualyl working and we are now winning the war.
      instead you find the negative things. that our employment rate went up a little. oh boo hoo. 5.7 % unemplyment is AMAZING compared to other countries. Americans need to stop whining. we have so much but all everyone wants it more

      Lets create a bunch of telemarketing and Wal-Mart jobs and then claim we fought unemployment!

      So the next decade can complain about all the Wal-Marts and the constant telemarketing that goes on in their house.

      Oh wait, that was already done in the 90s.
