This is just plain bad. Nonfarm payroll employment rose by 115,000 in April, and the unemployment rate was little changed at 8.1 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment increased in professional and business services, retail trade, and health care, but declined in transportation and warehousing.Meh. Let’s look at the internals and the household numbers, because that’s actual numbers instead of political crap. Incidentally, my guess was +100k +/- 50, so 115k is pretty close. In summary for those who don’t want to read the entire thing – this is a weak report. |

Wanted: A competent commander in chief: Obama's leadership is resulting in a degraded military
By Frank J. Gaffney Jr. http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | It turns out Team Obama suddenly wants the 2012 presidential campaign to be about foreign policy rather than the economy. Such a pivot might not be surprising given that by President Obama's own test, he has not cut unemployment to the point where he deserves to be re-elected.
The Democrats have - if anything - a weaker case for re-electing this president on national security grounds. The campaign ad they unveiled on Friday, timed to take credit for the liquidation of Osama bin Laden on the first anniversary of that achievement, is a case in point.
The video uses former President Bill Clinton to extol his successor's role in the mission - and selectively quotes Republican nominee Mitt Romney to suggest he would not have done the same thing.

ACLU puts Ten Commandments on trial!
Liberty Counsel

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Virginia, on behalf of individual plaintiffs, is suing the School Board of Giles County, Virginia, over a display that contains the Ten Commandments as one of eleven historic documents.
Liberty Counsel will represent the school board on Monday, May 7, in the summary judgment hearing. I am calling on the Liberty Counsel team for prayer – Mat. Conservatives, The ACLU of Virginia sued the Giles County School Board after the Board adopted an “open forum” policy, which permits the display of historical documents by private individuals or groups. |

Thanks, Obama: Job Growth Slowed Again In April
May 05, 2012 01:34 pmOne month of slower job growth might have been a blip. Two suggest a worrisome trend: The economy may be faltering again. The United States generated just 115,000 jobs last month, well below expectations and the fewest since October. The unemployment rate fell to 8.1 percent, but for the wrong reason — workers abandoned the [...]

“We are Preparing for Massive Civil War,” Says DHS Informant
Posted by Dominique de Kevelioc de Bailleul on May 03, 2012 |
In a riveting interview on TruNews Radio, Wednesday, private investigator Doug Hagmann said high-level, reliable sources told him the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is preparing for “massive civil war” in America.
“Folks, we’re getting ready for one massive economic collapse,” Hagmann told TruNews host Rick Wiles. Sign-up for my 100% FREE Alerts
“We have problems . . . The federal government is preparing for civil uprising,” he added, “so every time you hear about troop movements, every time you hear about movements of military equipment, the militarization of the police, the buying of the ammunition, all of this is . . . they (DHS) are preparing for a massive uprising.”
Hagmann goes on to say that his sources tell him the concerns of the DHS stem from a collapse of the U.S. dollar and the hyperinflation a collapse in the value of the world’s primary reserve currency implies to a nation of 311 million Americans, who, for the significant portion of the population, is armed.

Congressman Darrell Issa, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is not known to mince words.Liberty Counsel Action In drafting the “Contempt of Congress” resolution against Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice, Issa wrote…
The DOJ has “issued false denials, given answers intended to misdirect investigators, sought to intimidate witnesses, unlawfully withheld subpoenaed documents, and waited to be confronted with indisputable evidence before acknowledging uncomfortable facts.”
This is why Eric Holder MUST be held accountable…and why Liberty Counsel Action is calling on Congress to issue the contempt charge, call for Holder’s resignation, or impeach him!Click here now to join with citizens who are calling out our nation’s “top cop” and demanding that Congress end his department’s blatant corruption and dereliction of duty: http://www.lcaction.cc/r.asp?U=93396&CID=659&RID=35032338 Conservatives, |

The essence of debt serfdom is debt rises to compensate for stagnant wages. I often speak of debt serfdom; here it is, captured in a single chart. The basic dynamics are all here, if you read between the lines: 1. Financialization of the U.S. and global economies diverts income to capital and those benefitting from globalization/ “financial innovation;” income for the top 5% rises spectacularly in real terms even as wages stagnate or decline for the bottom 80%. |
