Best to stay away from black holes. Read Scott Peck's "People of the Lie." This s*** can seriously mess with a good person's mind.

That is, until I came back from lunch. Now they're spouting that the number was so low because California wasn't added into the report. UGH!!!

Checking DU now to see if there is verification of the latest crap!

that can't possibly be true.

a calendar (obviously Issa, Welch and Don the comb-over don't) knows this is when people hire for the holidays! I've seen signs all over town: HIRING!

Plus since employers have kept their workforces small this year, I think they might be adding more Xmas jobs than usual.

Plus there is Halloween in October....which has become much more commercialized than when I was a kid. We just grabbed a sheet and went after the candy.

And something about giving Thanks in November.

And people travel around these holidays, as well.

Seriously, are these Repugnants that fooking stupid?????????

Sure they may not be the highest paying jobs, but none the less, they are jobs.

They wouldn't be republican if they were smart.

forgetting that.

He is plainly certifiable.

but his own damn state. I believe he is the one who was behind the recall measure. actually, I think he thought he was going to be governor-NOT.

the man may have had a corrupt youth, then he made money on car theft alarms-I wonder how he got that idea?

Issa is doing this because the repugs would have thought of fudging the numbers. just projecting on something he probably would have done.

hey, issa how about those jobs bills you and your buddies can't seem to pass?

inho. Glad he's not my rep. Wish he wasn't anyone's.

the jobs number investigation.

Fiscal conservatives my ass. Combine that with the AWOL and MIA Congress who did more nothing than something during its sessions and we have wasted a boatload of $$ chasing boogeymen.

Exception with the Libyan attack but I feel this investigation isn't being performed with Americans' best interest at heart.

Time for the clean slate treatment!

chararterizing this to my more conservative family members and friends as 'hysterical gibberish'. It's fits the dictionary definition.

Issa is beneath contempt...

Hopefully the VP has something along those lines for tonite.

so the better jobs numbers don't hurt them. They are well aware there is no conspiracy. But this kind of stuff can be used against them.

from all the shit flying around.

Well said.

It should be "THEY'RE" sitting on every jobs bill, not "we."

I thought they dropped from the conversation too quickly.

must be certified as a sane individual.

isn't going to get noticed. I sometimes wish more Dems would pound the cable circuit like Repubs do when they're outraged.

more republicans? You can't pound the circuit if you're not invited to the event. Liberal media bias my ass!!!!!

But with these jerks there will never be enough.

As I said to someone the other day, if the jobs report could be manipulated there would never be a bad jobs report! Think about it. If this were a possibility, it would have benefitted Obama to have done it long ago.

This is craziness beyond the pale. Infuriating waste of government funds.

They should get off their lazy asses, stop voting on bills trying to stop abortion and get to work on jobs bills.

Obstructionists to the nth degree.

Ethics inquiry should be launched against Issa, with the only option - explusion.

May it be so.

Joint co-chairs, one a R and one a D. If someone wanted to file an ethics complaint they can do it anytime. Don't have to wait until D control.

An Issa spokesperson told the Huffington Post that the Chairman has not yet scheduled the hearing. “While Chairman Issa, in response to a question asked yesterday, did state that he believes there are legitimate questions about the Department of Labor’s method for calculating unemployment, the Oversight Committee has not announced or decided to hold hearings on the September unemployment report…. At no point did he say he has made plans to convene a hearing on this subject.”

Look at who just disclosed the location of a secret CIA base:

The treasonous, hypocritical bastards.

But yes, repugs are all that and more.

AY: Wouldn't they have picked a better NUMBER if it was faked??

BEE: Wouldn't this have happened SOONER if it was faked??

CEE: Why in the high FUCK does anyone listen to the Osama Bin Laden of The American Economy, Neutron Jack Welch anyway? WHY??? This neo-feudalist troll has done nothing but create wealth for his executives, fired thousands upon thousands upon thousands of workers, award himself with bonus after bonus after perk after salary inflation and now introduces unfounded conspiracy theories against government agencies cooking numbers out of partisan expediency. You've GOT to be shitting me, Jack. REALLY???? Not only that, but the fucker's a racist and a philanderer in addition to being a crooked fixer in both accounting and elections (remember, it was him behind the control desk in 2000 demanding NBC call the election for Bewsh).

DEE: FUCK CNBC for having this egg-shaped loser on every other week. What didn't he say 2 weeks ago that we need an update on now, Joe Kernen??? It's all about pushing their pro-corporate goddamned right wing claptrap and nothing else.

I suspect that the barrel is actually a portal into a monstrous black hole of lies and insanity.

We just need to be smart enough to see past the BS.

The republicans are counting on us being stupid.

we don't need to eeck-out a close victory, we need a big win to unseat Assa the car thief. We need to win back the house. We need a landslide.

haha

Maybe "The Walking Derp" would like another round with President Obama........ he obviously enjoys getting his shit kicked.

justify his madness. He will just investigate every bat shit crazy, wild crack inspired paranoid conspiracy fux can grasp with their shriveled hands and hold close to their breast. He has a job forever because the district he represents, north of San Diego. is tea bagger/party nirvana and breeding ground. I knew people living in his district who were rabid tea baggers before anyone dreamed of funding them.

Issa has shown himself to be a POS over and over and over again.

Talk about wasted Tax Dollars. This is worse than what the GOP did when Clinton was president.

Issa is a joke and an embarassment.

He is an unAmerican, treasonous, fucked up, lying, asshole piece of shit.

There. I tried.

THEY'VE BEEN DOING (AND NOT DOING) EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO KEEP UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS HIGH; THEY FEEL ENTITLED TO SOME RESULTS

Yeah I know they're intentionally throwing the economy until the election and Darrell Issa is q shitstain but I just think... they don't give a shit. They're trying everything they can to make Obama a one term president and I think right now it's backfiring on them big time.

oh all right, here I go: you are correct - they have trashed the jobs effort for millions in an effort to squash the employment of one man, President Obama......and it astounds them that he has beaten them at their own game

YOU DO NOT KNOW SKITTLES.

I try very hard, very very hard, not to hate people.

These traitorous bunch of Republican politicians make that a little more difficult each day.

FOR INSINUATING HIS OWN DISGUST OVER REPUKES DOING DISGUSTING THINGS COULD HAVE HAD SOME KIND OF LIMIT; *EGREGIOUS*

It's all part of the propaganda ploy. Put the idea in the minds of the gullible and voilà! Instant votes!

For them, it's not what's real that counts, it's how you cheat the game.

Get a Democratic Congress Elected, a Senate, and President Obama and VP Biden Re-Elected.

Hey CA-49, we in MN-06 might get rid of Bachmann, maybe soon you can get rid of Issa.

CA-49 Phone Bank Opportunity: To Defeat Rep. Darrell Issa for Re-Election!

And so then, when he gets his turn at hall monitor, he turns in everyone to the teacher.

His day in the sun is just about over.

Nobody likes him.

Nobody.

People who don't live in looneyland might not find this kind of McCarthyist batshitery very palatable.

This is EXACTLY what they did to Clinton. By the middle of his second term, he was so wrapped up in RW BS accusations and investigations he had barely any room to get anything accomplished. This nutjob now has a full-time witch hunt going on - sooner or later they're either gonna find something or invent something - this is now standard out-of-power modus operandi for Republicans.

I'm a taxpayer and it seems that my money can be spent elsewhere. Maybe on medicare. Or "Obamacare". Or almost anything. C'mon issa you wasteful asshole.

needs to be careful. Trying to conform to the base will make his seat up for grabs.

has wasted in his phony partisan "investigations."

like a Three Stooges movie every day. Just when you think they couldn't look more ridiculous.....................

tonight. I wonder which bogus investigation he will be talking about tonight, without Bill mocking him at all. This guy should be openly mocked about his whole term as chairman.
