HAWAII HEALTH DEPARTMENT NOT ONLY MUNICIPALITY LYING FOR OBAMA

AN INSIDE JOB...REPORT: Suspecting the unemployment rate in last weeks' U.S. Labor Department jobless report had been "cooked" to favor the Obama Administration's economic performance, analysts discover that California was indeed omitted from the numbers and, in the course of their inquiry also find that California's Labor Secretary, Marty Morgenstern, is a big Obama campaign donor.

NEW YORK, NY – The state governments in Hawaii and California rely heavily on federal tax revenue to support their municipal operations, infrastructure and public services. One relies on the federal government because it is so remote, the other because it is so big…and both because they are so liberal.    
For more than four years, many have suspected the State of Hawaii has lied to hide information about Obama’s natal history. The reason for the suspicion is rooted in Hawaii’s refusal to provide information from their Health Department files which would help prove that Obama is a Natural-Born citizen and, therefore, eligible to hold the office of President.
 
Now, California is lying for Obama too.
 
On October 11, the U.S. Labor Department reported that jobless claims had fallen by 30,000 to 339,000, suggesting the first dramatic increase in economic growth and a decline in layoffs since February 2008.
 
However, speculation among business analysts and economists immediately questioned the accuracy of the report after a review of the volume of jobless claims in comparison with volumes in previous reports. As a result, they found strong evidence that the unemployment rate had been falsely reported as 7.8%, down 0.5%.


The drop in percentage of jobless claims caused analysts to then look at the comparative volumes from each state and what they found was a volume of jobless claims which indicated that one state may have failed to report its data. This was determined after it was realized the denominator of a key labor rate indicator measuring the available labor force had sharply increased.
 
Changing the denominator of the jobless rate without changing the numerator will change the percentage, without changing the volume. For example, if 3 out 12 people are unemployed, that is a 25% unemployment rate. But if you show those 3 unemployed people as a part of 15 available workers, instead of 12, the unemployment rate magically drops to 20%...BUT the same 3 people are still not working!

"...if you show those same three unemployed people as a part of 15 available workers, instead of 12, the unemployment rate magically drops to 20%...BUT the same three people are still not working!" 
 
Based on the increase of the denominator in the ratio, the analysts focused on California as the possible state which they believed had been left out because California has the largest population and largest labor force in the U.S. which, if omitted, would indeed cause about a 0.5% fluctuation based on previous report numbers.
 
In reaction to accusations of impropriety, the California Employment Development Department strongly denied that it had failed to properly document the data.
 
“Reports that California failed to fully report data to the U.S. Department of Labor, as required, are incorrect and irresponsible,” California Employment Development Department director Pam Harris said in a statement last week.


“The California Employment Development Department, which administers the Unemployment Insurance (UI) program in the state, has reported all UI claims data and submitted the data on time.”


However, it now appears the analysts were right. Early Thursday, the federal government finally revealed that California was indeed the state that had, in fact, underreported jobless claims, as suspected by many, after the weekly Labor Department job report, skewing the national jobless claims results. This week’s updated jobs report corrected the error and showed unemployment claims spiking back up by 46,000.
 
The intentional omission of California’s data promoted an artificially favorable economic report for the Obama administration because the inclusion of California’s unemployed would have cause the jobless rate to increase by 0.02%, not decrease by 0.48% to 7.8%.
 
Regardless, the pro-Obama, biased media spread the “good news” quickly, with outlets like CNN and Bloomberg declaring, “Jobless claims fall to four-year low.”
 
Within hours, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Labor Department analysts announced that one major state had failed to fully document jobless claims. They declined to name the state.
 
Now, it has been learned that Marty Morgenstern, the secretary of the California municipal agency that under-reported unemployment claims, contributed to President Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential election campaign.
 
According to campaign disclosure records, Morgenstern donated $4,600 — the maximum amount allowed by law — to the 2008 Obama campaign, beginning with a $1,000 contribution to Obama for America in February 2008. Morgenstern followed up that donation with a $1,300 contribution in June, and then a $2,300 payout in early September.
 
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown appointed Morgenstern to lead the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency in 2011. The state agency oversees the Employment Development Department.
 
California recent in-state report claims its unemployment rate has dropped from 10.6% to 10.2%.
 
Analysts are rightly skeptical of the report.

ILLEGITIMATE JOBLESS REPORT OMITTED LARGEST STATE’S LABOR STATS

by Dan Crosby
of The Daily Pen

NEW YORK, NY- The state of California has the largest population of any state in America. It has an economy which, if it were an independent nation, would rank in the top 10 in the world.

It also has one of the highest rates of unemployment in America, above 10%. In some counties in the state’s central agricultural region, unemployment is around 25%.

Considering these metrics, one would think it might be necessary for a federal government report on the national labor rate to include the Golden State.

One would think this, unless you are a democrat seeking re-election by padding job numbers to make it appear like your liberal economic policies are working when they are not.

After this week’s surprisingly positive jobless claims number was released, three things happened according to Business Insider.

1. Lots of people felt better about the economy

2. Democrats cheered because they thought the number would help Obama

3. Republicans seized on confusing reports that the numbers had "excluded claims from one large state" (probably California) and blasted the number as wrong and misleading.

Since then, the argument has raged on, and there have been a variety of different reports and interpretations. Well, we're glad to say that we've finally gotten to the bottom of what happened.

We spoke to a source at the Labor Department. According to this source, who is an analyst at the Department, here's what happened:

  • ALL STATES WERE INCLUDED in this week's jobless claims. Assertions that "a large state" was excluded from the report are patently false.
However, dissenters are not saying California was excluded. They are saying that California did not provide its state labor statistics before the deadline required by the publisher of this particular report. Of course, California was not excluded. It was included and the number published was 0. Zero because California did not provide statistics. Here’s how economists explain:

  • It is likely that some of the jobless claims in one large state--California--were not included in the claims reported to the Department of Labor this week. This happens occasionally, our source says. When a state's jobless claims bureau is short-staffed, sometimes the state does not process all of the claims that came in during the week in time to get them to the DOL. The source believes that this is what happened this week.
  • The California claims that were not processed in time to get into this week's jobless report will appear in future reports, most likely next week's or the following week's. In other words, those reports might be modestly higher than expected.
  • The source believes that the number of California claims that were not processed totalled about 15,000-25,000. Thus, if one were to "normalize" the overall not-seasonally-adjusted jobless claims number, it would increase by about 15,000-25,000.
  • This week's "normalized" jobless claims number, therefore, would be about 355,000-365,000, not the 339,000 that was reported. This compares to the 370,000 consensus expectation.
In other words, had all of California's jobless claims been processed in time to make the jobless-claims release, this jobless number would still have been better than economists were expecting--but not as much better as it appeared.

Again, the as-yet-unprocessed claims will appear in future reports. So next week's number may well be higher than expected.

So, who's right about today's jobless claims number?

Everyone's right!

  • Jobless claims were better than expected, even after adjusting for an unusual anomaly
  • There was an unusual anomaly that made this week's jobless claims look better than they would otherwise have been.
Of course, there was a motive to create good news after Barack Obama's abysmal performance at the first 2012 presidential debate, just before the jobs reports came out. One way to do that is fake key economic indicators in favor of Obama.

Orly Taitz seeks support for political Campaign
from The Betrayal by David-Crockett

AIMS FOR CALIFORNIA ATTORNEY-GENERAL OR SECRETARY-OF-STATE OFFICES

(Jan. 25, 2010) — Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq., arguably the most famous personality of the popular movement seeking to remove Obama from office on the grounds that he is ineligible constitutionally, has announced her interest in preparing to campaign for political office.

Lead counsel in the case Barnett et al. vs. Obama et al., Taitz entered the public forum last year with her representation of Ambassador Alan Keyes, Gail Lightfoot and others on the California ballot, who sued Deborah Bowen, the California Secretary of State, regarding the admission of Obama to the ballot.

Taitz gained national fame for her defense of Major Stefan F. Cook in the Federal Court of Columbus, GA, when the latter sought an injunction to prevent his deployment to Iraq pending the discovery of documents which would determine Obama’s citizenship status.

Known as feisty, determined, and a patriotic fighter, Dr. Taitz’s entry into politics is expected to draw wide support on account of her crisp and clear reputation for loyalty to the U.S. Constitution and interest in upholding the public trust for the sake of guarding the rights of citizens from all walks of life.

Taitz’s personal story, as an immigrant of Jewish ancestry from the former Soviet Republic of Moldavia, gives her a rich background to connect politically with Americans of all backgrounds who value liberty and the values which have made the United States of America what She is.

You can read Dr. Taitz’s announcement regarding her interest in running for office at her website. Taitz is seeking to raise the very modest sum of $3,000 to set up a campaign; a campaign manager, and feedback from supporters as to success of the proposal.

[David Crockett Notice: Dr. Taitz’s site is currently infected, those commie hackers were at it again]

It seems that if Orly Taitz ran for California Secretary of State, she would garner the greatest financial support, since it is obvious that if she won that office, Obama would never be elected president again. Her campaign for such an office, therefore, would garner the support all those wishing to rid the country of Obama.
