Spin this Donks.
In the home stretch of the 2012 presidential campaign, from August to September, the unemployment rate fell sharply — raising eyebrows from Wall Street to Washington.
The decline — from 8.1 percent in August to 7.8 percent in September — might not have been all it seemed. The numbers, according to a reliable source, were manipulated.
And the Census Bureau, which does the unemployment survey, knew it.
Just two years before the presidential election, the Census Bureau had caught an employee fabricating data that went into the unemployment report, which is one of the most closely watched measures of the economy.
And a knowledgeable source says the deception went beyond that one employee — that it escalated at the time President Obama was seeking reelection in 2012 and continues today.

I watch a lot more MSNBC than I do Fox.
I know my views. I like to hear the other side to confirm that my views are righteous.

Isn't every jobs and employment report "faked" to some degree...
I'm not suggesting it's okay (because it's not)
but I'm also not sure I've ever seen an employment figure that I thought was accurate
This just in...
From Wall Street: There might be insider trading
Despite the general belief that Wall Street is completely honest and forthright
Word comes now that there might be insider trades happening every day (in the thousands)

What?
There might be people illegally selling illegal drugs too. What's your point?
It seems that the "faking" of unemployment data was taken to a new level. Right before an election.
Your leader doesn't do shit. He is an occupier of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and that's about it.
