The Labor Day weekend is in many ways the kick-off to the political season, especially with a presidential campaign very nearly operating in full stream. As such, standard political rhetoric is now conflated to have much grander meaning than it would just a year ago. Watch White House Press Secretary Jay Carney deal with the chattering class via live stream video below:

    Labor Department Says Real Unemployment Rate Rose To 16.2% In
    August…(CNSNews.com) – The real
    unemployment rate actually rose in August, according to the Department of Labor,
    belying the fact that the official unemployment rate, 9.1 percent, remained flat
    while the economy did not create any new jobs on net last month.
    According to the data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, real unemployment
    rose to 16.2 percent in August, up from 16.1 percent in July and tying
    the 2011 record set in June.
    The real unemployment rate is comprised of three different measures of the
    labor force that more accurately reflect who is really unemployed, as opposed to
    the official unemployment rate, which merely measures those who told the
    government they were unemployed and looking for work in the past
    month.

    Tapper completely nails Carney on the hypocrisy.

    One of the reporters should question Carney on the motivation for the Nevada attack this morning, and if there is any link to the inciteful, hateful and sometimes racist rhetoric spewed by elected Democratic officials at the Tea Party groups.

    Or,being National Guards were apparently targeted, if it was one of “The Peaceful Religion’s” acolytes.
    You know, the one Dem0ocrats fall all over themselves to innoculate from any culpability in tacitly condoning these attacks through their silence.

    Carney does not want to talk about Hoffa’s comments and says “can we move on?”  What does he have to fear if he answers the question?  One must wonder.
