New Jobless Report: ObamaCare survived, today. Too bad the Dems do not know that it is the reason the economy cannot recover.

First time jobless claims for last week were 385,000,  but this total will be revised upward to a nominal 390,000,  just like the June 16th report(s).  This election is still about the economy, first and foremost  --  not ObamaCare.  Understand that healthcare reform is a huge reason why the economy is not improving.  

Just yesterday,  we were told that the economy has slowed to 1% growth for the first half of the year  -  a recessionary number.  Understand that the Democrats were hanging Bush with "recession" based on the same numbers back in January of 2008.   Now it is Obama's turn. 

While this bunch of Ignorants celebrate the survival of ObamaCare,  they have no idea that their crowning glory is a critical reason for their failure to bring this economy out of its illness.  Never forget that Obama does not know how to write a budget proposal - so why would we suppose he understands what he has gotten us all into or how to get us out of this mess?

March 17 - 348,000 as a first report.  This will be adjusted up to 350,000 to 352,000 by next Thursday (3/29).  With the March 24 First Report,  we find out that the week ending 3/17 missed the the truth completely/  Instead of 348,000,  the final report was 364,000 or 16,000 off the mark.  


March 10 - 351,000 as a first report.  We expect this number to be revised to 354,000. It was adjusted to 353,000, 000
