"Senator Kyle Eats Your Brain"
This is a friend's blog. He's one of the smartest damned people I know...and more than a little cocky. 
Anyway, I thought this particular post of his was pretty informative. It's a rebuttal to: http://prescottdailycourier.com/main.asp?SectionID=36&SubSectionID=73&ArticleID=108538&TM=49793.89 a b.s. article by Sen. Kyl.
"He starts with the monthly employment report, that is the unexamined bottom-line number of 80,000 jobs gained (like, new jobs for everyone in the quad-city area in a month), characterizing it as "disappointing." This presumably opposed to the end of the Bush administration, where we started losing twice that many a month.
I get it, if we want to put the zoom back in the economy and make more money for the rich white guys that might trickle down to us peons, we want to see bigger employment numbers, sure."
