Cat Blog Friday



For this Cat Blog Friday... when it was just announced that the US Jobless Rate Falls To 7.8 pct., A 44-month Low

... a fortune teller cat who predicts this ridiculously low rate will soon be revised upwards, but quietly and without media fanfare. The fix is on.

She also predicts a happy Friday for anyone who reads this.

Now, cross her paw with silver... or tuna, whichever is handy.

  1. We really are living in an Orwellian world -- with Newspeak everywhere.

  2. "Always" has hit the nail on the head. And some people seem to be welcoming it.

  3. When I read 1984 many, many years ago, I thought it could never happen here. Now I know better. Eternal vigilance is the price we must pay for freedom.

  4. Jan: There are two sets of people who would welcome such change... fools and those who believe they will be among the elite and thus protected. Sometimes those sets form a subset that includes the two groups. Biden and many journolists come to mind.

  5. Yes, indeed... NOT so funny or surprising that, only a couple of days after BHO's bomb at the debate some 'good news' comes out.

    As AOW said, newspeak. Shaddup and eat the pablum, folks.

  8. Oh, now, Cube...four years of lousy jobless numbers...2 days after a debate where Romney kept saying "over 8%" and suddenly, SUDDENLY, the number IS below 8%....
    that's just a COINCIDENCE, don't you think? (as IF it's a coincidence!)
    And THIRTY DAYS before the election?

    WOW..
    "IT's A MIRACLE!!", says Eddie Murphy, as he stands up off the skate board and CAN WALK after being crippled!

  9. Did the media really believe we would be fooled by those numbers? Right after the butt whooping Obama received.

    They had to do something to save face, but that was another epic fail. The public is not that gullible, well, some are, but not all of us.

    We weren't fooled for a second.
