Since When are Job Losses Good News?

The liberal media seems to be doing their utmost to put a positive spin on the continued tanking of the economy and job losses.

Last month the media gushed over how "only" 247,000 jobs were lost. Then it comes out yesterday the number was really 276,000. Do you think they bothered to mention that? Of course not. They were too busy trying to put a positive spin on this month's loss of 216,000 more jobs.

Here's one line in particular from Reuters: U.S. job losses fell to their lowest level in a year last month, but the unemployment rate jumped to a 26-year high, painting a mixed picture ....

A mixed picture? What?

Let me get this straight. We just lost 216,000 more jobs in this country, bringing the government reported unemployment rate to 9.7% (higher than expected) and the worst employment situation since 1983, and this is a "mixed picture"?

Boy I'd hate to see a totally depressing picture painted by the liberal media. Oh wait, when "evil incarnate" George Bush was president it was panic and all darkness and up in arms when we "only" created 5 digit jobs one month. Does anyone remember that?

The last time I checked, job creation was good news. Just amazing.
