...what BK said, skelly: The data on the BLS web site only went to 2010.


On the other hand, what you and BO do in the privacy of your own toilet stall is your own business.

Well, it started again, the next big dip. Super Valu announced they were laying off over 800 people in the Twin Cities and I'm expecting to start hearing more in the near future.

Sorry Jeffie - didn't see your post until someone quoted it (you know, with you being on ignore.......) ;)

So "LOL" is your coherent argument? I'll keep waiting on something less Facebook/texting based and something more substantial. :coffee:

PepsiCo plans to cut 8,700 jobs, or about 3 percent of its workforce, as it seeks to offset high commodity costs and increases investment in advertising and marketing in North America.

Sounds suspiciously like a "blame Bush" response. Sorry, wrong answer. :ohno:

I posed my question first, slick. We can beat on the W. presidency all we want (which BTW was NOT one of the acceptable answers). I'm not defending the past, but provide me the extraordinary resume that should propel the annointed one into another term. He didn't need a resume the first time around, so I really don't expect much of an answer (sort of like the sound of crickets I've gotten so far from my initial question). :coffee:

I'm not asking you to....simply show me that Obama is better than one of the half assed Republican candidates and why? Like it or not, BO has a track record now of his own decisions and policies that you can fall back on in your dissertation. :coffee:

Last year (the 2010 - 2011 season where the Packers won the Super Bowl).... after the Packers / Bills game, Buffalo released quarterback Trent Edwards.

During the Packers / Eagles game, the Packers injured Philadelphia quarterback Kevin Kolb. Philadelphia then had to play backup quarterback Michael Vick.

During a playoff game against the Eagles, the Packers injured Michael Vick and another backup was needed.

After the Packers / Cowboys game, Dallas fired Wade Phillips and most of his staff.

After the Packers / Vikings game, Minnesota fired Brad Childress and most of his staff.

Four weeks after losing to the Packers, the 49er's coach Mike Singletary and most of his staff were fired and replaced.

During the Bears Playoff game, the Packers injured Jay Cutler and backup Todd Collins, forcing the Bears to go with 3rd string quarterback Caleb Hanie.

So here's the question ....

Is it just me, or did the Packers create more jobs that year than Obama?
