Dave

Wow...and the stock market made new highs today.

This is horrible..a prime example of why we need to impeach Obama.

The U.S. economy added 321,000 jobs last month, according to government data released Friday morning, in what may be the most assertive sign to date that the labor market is returning to pre-recession health.

November’s numbers cap the best three-month period of labor market expansion since the financial crisis and keep the country on track for a year of job growth unseen since the late 1990s.

The unemployment rate kept steady at 5.8 percent, its lowest mark since July 2008, according to the report from the U.S. Department of Labor.

Th baggers will say that this is due to their winning back the Senate.

Ho, Ho, Ho!:)

Best job numbers in 15 years. It's Obama's fault.;)

It's a shame the Dems were afraid to run on their record.:confused: Chickenshit behavior like that deserves to lose elections.

From the WaPo Story:

The average American last month took home $853.24 per month — a 2.4 percent increase from the $833.18 figure of a year earlier — partly because of working longer hours.

Assuming that's the take home pay of a FT worker / 40 hours per week, that's an average of about $5.34 per hour of take home pay.

However, maybe this is why the Dems didn't want to run on their record:

A few figures to consider: That big headline number translated into just 4,000 more working Americans. There were, at the same time, another 115,000 on the unemployment line. That disparity can be explained through an expanding labor force, which grew 119,000, though the participation rate among that group remained at 62.8 percent, which is just off the year's worst level and around a 36-year low.

Also:

The jobs that were created skewed heavily toward lower quality. Full-time jobs declined by 150,000, while part-time positions increased by 77,000.
