Why let the facts interrupt your crusade. I can't count how many times you stated that wisconsin had XX many months of straight job loss.
MADISON (AP) - Wisconsin labor officials say the state added 12,500 jobs in January.

Data the Department of Workforce Development released Thursday shows the state added 15,700 jobs but lost 3,200 government jobs.

The state's unemployment rate fell slightly, from 7 percent in December to 6.9 percent in January. The agency cautioned the figures were preliminary but said unemployment was at its lowest since December 2008.



If it were up to the unions and the democrats we would have more job losses in order for them to get Scott Walker recalled. Who has the peoples best interest in mind? The ones who are willing to sacrifice their own in order to get Walker out of office? I noticed you had nothing to say about the letter from the Teachers unions to the MTA...

Facts only the Facts

Because it's true.

But, hey, you keep talking about "facts".

I'm glad the one month of January, after the six straight months of job loss, was a net gain, while the unemployment rates you quote for January of course have nothing to do with job joss numbers for the previous six straight months of job loss in Wisconsin.

Why you think that your quoting one month of January someone magically makes the months of July through December 2011 - the six straight months of job loss that occurred in Wisconsin - invalid, I don't know. Can you explain how that works? Via the "facts"?

What about Jan '11 thru June '11? Did you post those numbers also that show all of the job gains that more than nulifies all losses? How do the results look from the day Walker took office as compared to the Doyle Administration? Imagine if the democrats worked with governor Walker how many jobs we could have added instead of fighting recalls, political battles,etc

What about it? Wisconsin's massive, country-leading six months of job losses were the last six months of 2011, under Governor Walker. According to the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, your statement is completely false.

Wisconsin is still behind in jobs, the jobs lost have not be replaced, although January, as you posted in another thread, had a net gain. But no, that little net gain in January didn't replace all losses.

Absolutely the thousands of jobs lost in 2011 have not already been replaced. Post your numbers if you are going to make crazy claims.

I'm going by the published Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers that show that Wisconsin had the worse job creation in the country, six straight months of job loss. You know, the links I've posted multiple times here? That are sitting in the other thread right now?

Oh, and here's the information from Drudge for you. Hardly a "liberal blog"

Wisconsin’s six consecutive months with job loss

Today, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released a report compiling job numbers for every state in the Union. The report shows Wisconsin is the only state to have lost jobs for the past six straight months, while the nation as a whole has gained jobs for 22 straight months. Below is Rep. Pocan's statement on Wisconsin's dismal job performance under Governor Scott Walker:

http://www.drudge.com/news/153551/wi...ive-months-job
Post different if you have them. You don't. Six straight months of job loss under Walker. He's a job-loss disaster.

Oh: and here's Politifact showing how Walker attempting to use in-state job numbers (Wisconsin Workforce Development) rather than Federal Bureau of Labor Stats numbers, in an attempt to fudge the numbers and make himself look good - is faked. Just read down through all the updates, which shows how Walker's claims are not true.

I am just following up on this since you post facts and only the facts. I am assuming you meant the press release from March 6th, not May 6th. So since you couldn't post it I thought I would

GOGEBIC TACONITE, LLC 402 SILVER STREET HURLEY, WI 54534 (715) 561-2601
March 6, 2012
Statement by Gogebic Taconite, LLC President Bill Williams on State Senate
Rejection of Mining Reforms:
Senate rejection of the mining reforms in Assembly Bill 426 sends a clear message that Wisconsin will not welcome iron mining. We get the message. GTac is ending plans to invest in a Wisconsin mine. We thank the many people who have supported our efforts.


I am guessing your made up press release in your head contained some other information than the actual release.

Wis. adds jobs in February, unemployment steady

By ASSOCIATED PRESS Thursday, March 22, 2012 - 1:01 p.m. MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin added 4,000 private sector jobs in February while the state's unemployment rate remained unchanged at 6.9 percent.

The report released by the state Department of Workforce Development on Thursday marks the second month in a row that Wisconsin has added jobs. In the first two months of the year, Wisconsin added 17,800 private sector jobs.

Through February, the state had added just 8,100 private sector jobs compared with before Walker took office in January 2011.
Keep it up Governor!

At the pace set the last two months that comes to 106,000/year, three more years and he's got the 250K jobs promised easy!

Now if Obama could only honor his promise to cut the deficit instead of doubling it!

Just imagine if the legislature actually worked together to help achieve job growth instead of wasting time and money fighting the govenor every step he takes
