I love it how the GOP has used the unemployment numbers against Obama for months and as soon as they come out and show a reduction, they are now somehow tainted. Kind of like how the repubs don't believe in polls and insist that the mainstream media is manipulating them, but as soon as Romney's poll numbers improve, they suddenly embrace the polls.
typical "cart before the horse" logic...
they dont extrapolate conclusions for numbers and statistics... but instead desperately try to grasp at anything that goes along with their prescribed view point...

What hogwash! Canada's numbers come out and we create more jobs per captia than the Americans, our jobless figures go up while their figures drop to a four year low. More Americans than ever are dependant on food stamps and yet somehow the jobless figures are better? Talk about cooking the books! The United States would need to have created at least 500,000 jobs to see a decline in unemployment figues.
If you believe in the honest validity of these "mysteriously adjusted numbers", then you also believe in Santa Claus, and the Tooth Fairy.
They are a lot of government provided jobs though not a true free market.

572,000 — or about 67 percent — of the reported job gains that contributed to the reduction in the unemployment rate came from workers who had to settle for part time work. BLS explains that, “The number of persons employed part time for economic reasons (sometimes referred to as involuntary part-time workers) rose from 8.0 million in August to 8.6 million in September. These individuals were working part time because their hours had been cut back or because they were unable to find a full-time job.”
