| The U.S. Labor Department said it plans to release the October jobs report due out Friday as scheduled, despite the onslaught of Hurricane Sandy. "The employees at the Bureau of Labor Statistics are working hard to ensure the timely release of employment data on Friday, November 2," said a Labor Department spokesperson. "It is our intention that Friday will be business as usual regarding the October Employment Situation Report." The October jobs report could have a significant impact on the Nov. 6 presidential election. A positive report would undoubtedly be hailed by President Obama

If these numbers DO come out, why do I think they'll be the best numbers in the history of the world?

They must have decided that it would be a little too cute not to release the numbers. They will just them a little first.

The problem is that the Labor Department is now working off of the corrupt baseline from last month's "miraculous" numbers. It is probably increasingly difficult to use true data off of the last report's fake data and to make it even remotely plausible; hence the announcement that they were going to delay release due to the storm.
I guess the White House/Geithner have been able to proffer a new bogus claim that builds off of last month's bogus claim, showing the economy roaring back strong, and the WH has ordered these new fake numbers to be released on schedule to give them gravitas. I'm sure it's another .3 reduction in unemployment, giving the desperate President and his minions in the press something to crow about. And crow they shall!
At some point they will have to come clean on the numbers, but if it's after the election, who cares in their minds.

"The unemployment rate for the month of October unexpectedly dropped to 6%. 10 states have yet to report but it's further proof the recovery is in full comeback mode".

It may be their "intention," but the release of the jobs report depends on how plausibly they can cook the books this time.

The "good" numbers didn't work the last time, so I think most people realize they were phony. The people who are out of work, and there are a lot of them, don't care if the numbers look good. Plus, obama's already told us he's not good at math. The numbers will only matter if they are corrected to reflect reality. We know that's not going to happen.

I agree with the above post that the miraculous 'good numbers' didn't work the last time. Obama, his media propagandists and his administration have already SHOWN America what they are. They lie, obscure fact and use the poor suckers who still bend over in adoration.
.... The U.S. Labor Department badly stained its own credibility by faking numbers in the attempt to accumulate praise for The Won. But, we have seen the vast cash stretch of Obama's billionaire manipulator. I am not above believing that members at the Labor Department, like Old Media, have been bought off.

Pathetic. In fact the worst thing Obama has done to this country, is that we no longer trust our government. Obama and his ilk (Ayers) began their journey with a distrust for government. Now they are the government. And the dishonesty that always sat nowhere but in their own souls, has corrupted our finest institutions.

Nowhere in that has there been evidence of a Chief Executive with less character, lower standards, fewer morals, greater incompetence, a more dangerous socio-political agenda, and yet with increasingly arrogant, personal ambition and ego than those of President Barrack Hussein Obama.

It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our government´s reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America´s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, ´the buck stops here.´ (Snip) America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership.

After almost ¾ of a year the president finally holds a press conference but the press fails to show up. I mean they physically showed up but not journalistically. In the world of politics and press when the press fawns over someone they find a way to either not ask a probing question or they simply ask a non-consequential one.

Olympia, Wash. - Republicans are in position to extend their recent gains among governors as they compete for seats they haven’t won in a quarter-century. Of the 11 states with gubernatorial elections in November, eight are now led by Democrats, and each of the most competitive races is a GOP pickup opportunity. The numbers suggests that Republicans soon will claim 30 to 33 governorships after holding just 22 a few years ago — an advantage not reflected in the divided Congress or competitive presidential race. “It says that when people are choosing the government closest to the people,

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public
