    Default 780,000 More Women Unemployed Today Than When Obama Took Office

    War on Women: 780,000 More Women Unemployed Today Than When Obama Took Office

    The number of women unemployed in June was 5,785,000, an increase of 780,000 from when Barack Obama was inaugurated in January 2009 – at that time, the number of unemployed women in the United States was 5,005,000.

    The number of unemployed is for women ages 16 and older in the civilian work force and is seasonally adjusted, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).


    The BLS data also show that the unemployment rate for women in June was 8.0 percent, up from 7.9 percent in May. That’s also up from 7.0 percent in January 2009 when Obama became president.


    The overall unemployment rate (men and women) is 8.2 percent. For women, the unemployment rate has gone up fairly consistently since January 2009, with a few ups and downs, but reaching as high as 9.0 percent in November 2010 and staying in the mid-8 percent range for most of 2009, 2010 and 2011.


    The unemployment rate for women in January of this year was 8.3 percent, or 5,997,000 unemployed, an increase of 992,000 since the president was inaugurated.

    Didn't the teabag party guarantee higher unemployment with their 'kill the govt.' promise?

    Women represent a high % of those who lost public sector jobs.

    Why aren't you happy?

    Didn't OWEdummy and his Fleabagger party promise economic growth and 5% unemployment with his Porkulus bill? Didn't OWEdummy promise us we would make money off of Government Motors? Didn't OWEdummy promise to close GITMO and stop renditions?

    FAIL

    Facts are indeed stubborn. Perhaps you should offer some when you post?

    Did republicans want to close GITMO? Didn't they fight public trials for detainees? Why aren't you happy?


    The rest of your post isn't worthy of comment.

    Go find some facts.

    Surely you're not suggesting that republicans are any different. :0) That would be funny.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    Buried within each of those bills, are republican pet nuggets that you guys don't like to discuss.

    Some make the Bush tax cuts permanent.

    Some take away funding for women's health.

    Some take away funding for programs that help the impoverished.


    Why would the Senate waste their time?

    You think everyone is as dumb as the conservatives that post here?

    I don't mind GITMO being open, but you can't deny that the big eared fairy did promise to close it and reneged. His sycophantic followers should be pissed, but like all thing related to affirmative action his lies are overlooked.

    I humbly accept your concession

    Unfortunately the GOP is joy any different. That is why the Tea Party is working to replace the likes of McConnell and RINOS like him

    Yep the GOP are profligate spenders. Women like everyone else should pay for their own health care.

    The impoverished are doing just fine. Being poor in America is better than being middle class in Africa
