Tread thou cautiously, Sir NOYB. The "liar" adjective has been trotted out
previously in this discussion. :-)



Nobby has pretty close to the thickest blinders on of anyone in the
newsgroup with a working brain. Lack of one excuses Gawkin, Jackoff and
Bertie from the category.

C'mon, Harry. The NOYB and I are having an issues oriented discussion, (pretty
much so, anyway), and you wade in to try and stir up the entire right wing?

This issue is whether the Bush administration followed thorugh with its idea to
reclassify burger flippers, Subway sandwich builders, and ice cream scoopers as
"manufacturing" employees.
(And whether or not such reclassification is affecting the number of
manufacturing jobs in the most recent report).

You want to discuss who does or does not have a brain, start your own thread.

One of the reports I saw indicated that the last month's job creation
figure included about 25,000 manufacturing jobs.

I recall the suggestion to reclassify burger flippin jobs as
manufacturing jobs, but have no idea whether it was implemented.

In any event, Bush will be damned lucky to end up at the same level of
employment as Clinton had, even if those Bush jobs don't begin to match
in quality, pay or benefits a similar nunmber of jobs in the Clinton
years. The quality of jobs and benefits is in a tailspin.

As far as Bush having a serious net gain in employment that compares
with the numerical gains in the Clinton years, that's not in the cards.
