| Marty Morgenstern, the secretary of the California agency that substantially under-reported unemployment claims last week, contributed to President Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential election campaign, The Daily Caller has learned. On Oct. 11, the federal government reported that weekly jobless claims were down significantly, suggesting a dramatic national increase in economic growth. But within hours, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that one major state had failed to fully document jobless claims. (Snip) Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown appointed Morgenstern to lead the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency in 2011. The state agency oversees the Employment Development Department.

Comments: Is there not one thing about the 0bama regime and those who support it that isn't built upon fraud? Oh yeah, that would be the stuff that is build upon corruption. The only question we have here then is which is it?

We all know 0bama is cooking the numbers; I have never known so many people out of work. Of course, he lied. Unemployment is over 15%. 0bama is pumping the stock market by printing trillions of dollars. Everything we buy costs more.

From Capitol Weekly, 2010: During Brown’s first tenure as California’s governor, he famously appointed a labor union power force, Marty Morgenstern, as the head of the Department of Personnel Administration, the government body that mediates contract negotiations between unions and the governor.
This guy is a soul mate of Trumka. Maxed out Obama donor willing to do anything to help, lie, cheat and steal.

Marty didn't think too highly of his job, it apears. How can you rehabilitate a sick duck like this? He's been playing the "one-party rules the land" game for so long.
He needs to be thrown in prison so he can start at the bottom and learn some guiding principles...period!

Obomination is trying to wreck as much havoc as he can before the election. No matter the outcome of the election, that has been his main goal, to get as many people dependent on government as possible. He wins then either way. Romney will have a sorry mess to clean up!

We knew that the 7.8% report was bogus. And those "experts" who know about such things - like Jack Welch - knew that it was bogus.
Then we knew that a "major" state had failed to report its unemployment claims correctly.
Now we know which major state it was and why the responsible person didn't do the right thing.
You can't blame all Californians because one Dem operative in the Dem government elected by a Dem majority is a cheater.
Many millions of Californians are not represented. Their votes, because they are in the minority, do not count. They are called Republicans.

The real number is simply what Mitt said it was in the debate - somewhere above 10% if you actually start out with the same number of people working instead of pretending all the people who left the work force don't exist. You can take that man's words to the bank.
I will love having a president whose words you can take to the bank. For a change.
Oh and the real-real number is the U6 around 14% or 15%. I seem to remember Mitt's mentioning that in one of the debates too.

I love what Romney said at the Al Smith dinner: "That jobs report prompted the Obama campaign to claim 'You are better off than you were four weeks ago!" Hilarious.
Obama is feeble, even when he cheats it's so blatant as to be the punchline of a joke.
The comics have said that Obama is difficult to make fun of - last night Romney showed them how.

By my calculation, since it was not provided; FTA, last week unemployment supposedly went down 30,000 to a total of 339,000, this week unemployment went up 46,000 to a total of 388,000 when California's information was added. Never mind that 46,000 plus 339,000 does not equal 388,000, the percent of unemployed has to be higher than it was 2 weeks ago which was 8.2% (I think--this previous unemployment was also not stated in the article). If my math is reasonably accurate, and it is, that means, shazam, unemployment is more than the magical 8%.

Folk, now we know what elections are like in third world countries; Banana Republics if you will. This is just a taste of what is to come if the Marxist-in-Chief is re elected. The media misreports and lies about the challenger and corrupt government officials skew or outright lie or hide data to make the government look good. Anything to keep the tyrant in office because they know how to keep their jobs.
So, if Zippy is re elected, you can see what society and the economy will be like - a third world nation.
Who would ever believe such a great nation could fall so far, so fast.

What is equally disturbing is the entire Big Media Complex dutifully reports the 7.8% figure as if it`s the gospel. Even Fox News joined in on the Big Lie. No fact checking, no `in depth` analysis, no investigative reporting as to where that number came from.

The on line movie guy donated a million bucks for Prop 3o in Calif to raise the taxes one veryone and it goes in the general fund. Also there are other H'wooders donating $100K for Prop 30 to raise sales taxes and tax "millionaires". The govt has become the mob. This is impt for the other 49 states because Calif needs a bailout about 27 billion dollars. Calif Legislature will be over 50% Donk and can pass or not pass anything after the election because the morons and illegals will vote donks in toto in to office. The Calif GOP is very weak and will not fight back But every other state (49) will be on the hook for $500,000,000 if my math is correct.

We at Townhall have been covering this hotly contested Senate race for months and the results are finally in: With 36 percent of precincts reporting, Elizabeth Warren has been declared the next junior Senator from Massachusetts. Warren has never held public office before and the eye-popping $40 million she raised this election cycle evidently proved more than enough to unseat incumbent Senator Scott Brown. This was the most expensive Senate race of 2012 -- by a long shot.

CNN’s Peter Hamby reported that Mitt Romney‘s internal polling showed President Obama leading in Ohio by five percentage points.Per Hamby’s post: The number represented a sharp final bump for Obama in Ohio, a race that had essentially been a tied race through much of the previous week, according to the campaign’s daily tracking. The polling, which also showed a tight race in Pennsylvania, explains why Romney officials decided to send their candidate on last-minute Election Day visits to Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

The Obama and Romney campaigns may be gearing up for a very late night, with one Obama campaign adviser predicting that in Florida alone, "they'll be counting until 2 a.m." The Obama adviser said signs suggest the race is quite tight, though the campaign claimed to be "holding strong" in key battlegrounds like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The adviser also said turnout among black voters in Virginia was better than expected, suggesting that could be a problem for Mitt Romney. Republican operatives in Virginia, though, predicted a razor-thin victory for their candidate in the state.

Washington - Early returns on Tuesday in what is anticipated to be a dead even presidential election contained no surprises, as CNN projected President Barack Obama will win his home state of Illinois and eight other races while Republican challenger Mitt Romney will win nine states. All races called so far went as expected after the roller-coaster ride of an election campaign that was buffeted by a superstorm and missteps on both sides. Obama and Romney ran dead even in final polls that hinted at a result rivaling some of the closest presidential elections in history, reflecting the deep political

A week after Hurricane Sandy slammed into the East Coast, a majority of voters said President Barack Obama’s response to the crisis wasn’t a factor in their vote, according to early exit polls. Fifty-five percent of those surveyed, per CBS News’ early exit polling released by radio station WKZO in Kalamazoo, Mich., said Obama’s handling of the storm was a minor factor in their vote or wasn’t a factor at all. Twenty-six percent named Sandy as an “important” factor, and 15 percent said it was the “most important” factor in their decision.

Mitt Romney is leading among independents in both Ohio and Virginia, early exit polls show. In Ohio, the former Massachusetts governor takes 56 percent of self-identified independents, compared with 40 percent for President Barack Obama. That’s a huge decrease for Obama from 2008, when the exit polls found him winning independents in Ohio by 12 points, 52 percent to 44 percent for John McCain. The numbers are similar but slightly tighter in Virginia: Romney takes 53 percent of independents there, according to ABC News exit polls, a 12-point lead over Obama. In 2008, Obama won independents in the state by

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.
