    Bernie Sanders: Real Unemployment Rate is 10.5%

    Presidential candidate and self-identified socialist Senator Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) expressed his concern over Americans who have dropped out of the labor force, saying “real unemployment is 10.5 percent,” at a presidential campaign rally in Portland, Maine, the Daily Caller reported.

    “When you talk about the economy, we also have to have an honest assessment of unemployment in America,” said the senator. “Once a month the government publishes a set of figures, and the last figures they published said that official unemployment was 5.4 percent.”

    Ouch, that just might leave a mark. Reckon the MSM will spent much time if any reporting this slap at Obama ??
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    ... are we or are we not using the exact same Math to measure, evaluate and report Unemployment as all the previous Administrations?

    This should be classic

    Sure they have, and they've been wrong.

    Your hero Bernie just called Obama out for bally-hooing numbers that don't tell the whole truth.
    What are you to do ??
    Actually I already know the answer.

    FEEL THAT CEE'GAR? THAT'S PRIDE FING WITH YA!



    Old Bernie tells the truth we all know and the dems can't take it? Jimmy Carter shows how his Foreign Policy has F'd up our relationships and an da babies don't like dat either?

    Obama is not an exceptional leader or economist.
    I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.

    Obama voters don't need no stinkin' jobs as long as they have the Dear Leader and the wipe-every-nose welfare state to take care of them.

    If Sanders says the real unemployment figure is greater than what the administration reports, the liberals can agree. If a Republican says the exact same thing, those same liberals claim it's a lie.
