    Hey Reps grind this over

    Dept. of Labor: U.S. employers posted 3.4 million job openings in Sept.

    http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/11/0...nings-in-sept/

    U.S. employers posted help-wanted ads for 3.4 million jobs in Sept., the Department of Labor announced on Tuesday. That’s the most in any single month for the last three years, they added.

    While those figures sound almost too good to be true, just posting job openings doesn’t always mean new jobs are available. Even at the height of the employment crisis in July 2009, 2.1 million job openings were posted.

    Still, economists believe it is a reassuring sign that hiring will continue to pick up across the U.S. as the economy slowly revs back up.

    The Labor Dept. said earlier this month that 104,000 new jobs were created in the private sector during Oct., and another 102,000 were added to figures from Aug. and Sept. Even more jobs could be added to that figure from Oct. with possible future revisions.

    That makes 20 straight months the U.S. economy has added jobs, creating 2.8 million new positions, according to government figures. Those numbers also include more than 1 million new jobs this year alone.
    Granted not enough but a better start then all the help from the party of No has put put.

    How many of the employers offering the 3.4 million jobs were Republicans and how many were Democrats?......Ben

    Not sure what rawstory.com is, but this is in US News.....

    The Obama economy is so bad that 77 percent of small business owners do not plan to hire any more workers despite all of Washington's hype that the business climate is getting better. Worse: 64 percent of small business owners in a new survey provided to Whispers see the nation teetering on the verge of another recession.

    Most shocking of all in the survey of small and medium sized business owners is that many would like to hire more workers but can't, and new financing rules imposed by hurting banks have made getting loans sharply more difficult than in the past. [Read: What Obama Can and Can't Do to Create Jobs.]

    "Despite positive job numbers for the month of October, it is clear that business owners have a differing view of the economy," said Connie Certusi, executive vice president and general manager of Small Business Accounting Solutions, a division of Sage North America. Sage, a business management software supplier, conducted the survey among its 3.2 million customers.

    Yep, and we were told over and over again in reference to Bush and Perry that those jobs don't count.....

    Im still trying to figure out why Dems are so dumb that they cant add.
    The Labor Dept. said earlier this month that 104,000 new jobs were created in the private sector during Oct., and another 102,000 were added to figures from Aug. and Sept.
    And every week the jobs report comes out saying that several hundred thousand jobs were lost that WEEK and they get all giddy about 100K added that MONTHand thats a good thing??? Does anybody else wonder why we are in such a bad way in this country? Libs just do not get it.

    How many of those are FEDERAL (paid for by our taxes) jobs to add to Union Dues------or how many jobs to the slobs (as the Feds think) in the PRIVATE sector? How many are Part-time that don't pay enough to give up Unemployment checks? They never tell you that. I don't think the FEDERAL Govt. CAN add jobs to the Private sector---but they like you to THINK they do.
