Today on MEET THE PRESS the Messiah, through prime economic acolyte Timothy Geightner, predicted that unemployment will turn positive in the second quarter. This means that the unemployment reports for Aprill will be positive. He could not explain the concept of "jobs saved" in anything approaching an intelligent manner. We shall see.

April is also when Geightner pays his taxes. We shall see how that works out.

As I watched him explaining how the jobs were saved, I thought to myself, "this is going right over the head of MIDAMER", and sure enough, here you are, clueless. I will try and explain to you in as simple a manner as possible, since you ride the short bus.

No, I am not going to waste my time and energy, it is just over your head, you will have to take it on failth, like you do everything else in your life.

Was that so hard? No profanity. You may actually be a nice misinformed old coot. Keep trying.

Provide a link that explains "jobs saved" in an economics context.

MIDAMER:

Says the guy who thinks our Treasury Secretary is named 'Geightner'

Just keep reading World Nut Daily, it will give you all the information you need to organize a militia or join a klavern.

You're watching Sesame Street, aren't you?

Yeah, I can see how the addition of that extra g confused you. Probably couldn't get hold of the DNC answer man. You apparently have little to worry about but thanks for a really insightful post.

want me to send you some self help books? I'm sure the local book store has a whole section on people with your particular set of problems.

Seems like your ability to influence anyone is pretty limited....actually, you are better at convincing people of the opposite view from the one you are selling.

You were thinking your post was insightful?

MIDAMER:

I wasn't confused so much as I was thinking, 'Gee, apparently the author of the toppost doesn't read the news very often.'
