Job rate 169,000 adds, 7.3% unemployment rate. GOP supporters disappointed AGAIN!

The unemployment rate is lower than when Obama took office (7.8% January 2009), but you won't hear them mention that.

I love to see the numbers at 8:30 each month on the Morning Joe Show. Joe seems so disappointed when the number is positive in any way. If the rate goes down or the number is up, the meme is that it isn't as good as it should be. No it isn't. But, when we we losing 750,000 jobs a month--under Bush, he somehow always found a way to be positive.

hard work to get the rate to rise. My goodness, how hard do they have to work. I hope they fail even more miserably than they have.
