Americans Leave Labor Force
On the heels of the report that our economy grew a paltry 0.1% last
quarter, we get the latest jobs report from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics. On its surface it looks good, but there is more than meets
the eye.
In April 2014, 288,000 jobs were created, leading our unemployment rate
to fall to 6.3%. If you listen, read or watch the liberal media, that's
where the story would end. But you and I know that there's more to
these reports, which is far more telling about the truth nature of our
economic vitality.
For example, the U6 rate, which many believe to be the more accurate
measure of unemployment, is 12.3% in April. This measures employment, as

these protests are rooted in an Internet video, and not a broader
failure of policy." This matters because the American people and the
families of the four victims in Benghazi have been lied to about the
true nature of the attack. They lied for political purposes and they
continue to defend this lie, even as the facts emerge to the public.
It's sickening...(continued)
Tonight on 'Hannity' on FoxNews 10pm ET:
Tonight we look at how the administration is downplaying the latest
Benghazi revelations. Plus one victim's father fires back at the
Democrats dismissing the importance. And another installment of our
emotional report on the VA neglect.
