Shame on all of them

I think I may have found some common ground for those Americans trying to make sense of government statistics.

Take a look at this Rick Santelli rant on the November jobs numbers and why they show no sign of strength in the economy.

Politicians on both sides of the aisle "love to fib about statistics," he said.

"Shame on all of them."

I think that about sums up the feeling of most Americans who live this nightmare of politically driven statistics creating an altered reality for how the economy is doing. Jiggle the numbers and, poof, a recession becomes a robust, taxable economy.
