Now even Ben Bernanke is blaming the weakened economy on the fairy's concern over the fiscal slope. The good news is that the Monetary Leprechaun is encouraged by the approaching tax increase on the rich. So, in terms of imaginary creatures it's a wash.<br /><br />Garethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-23259566106954933642012-12-12T22:47:31.770-06:002012-12-12T22:47:31.770-06:00Is that 86,000 from Jan. 2011 vs. Fall 2012?

It's a pathetically cynical comment when you dig into it.<br /><br /> If we use Walker's favored job stats numbers and stay on the same pace till the end of his 1 term, I could see that 100,000 panning out. As a 4-year total. <br /><br /> P.S., revenues are coming in low, barely above last year's levels and well behind the pace in the budget. Even with a longer Christmas Holiday season. Don't buy that "surplus" talk.Jake formerly of the LPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15660401299391001751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-21090734517236394902012-12-12T21:16:41.071-06:002012-12-12T21:16:41.071-06:00Silly you!

The explanation for the difference between PolitiFact's November analysis and today's WalkerFact's numbers--60,589, to be precise--is the exact number of jobs created by Walker in the first 12 days of December.Betseynoreply@blogger.com
