So The Faked Census Reports Were True.....

This is going to be one of those "I told you so moments".  Back in 2012 when the unemployment rate fell sharply it raised eyebrows from Mainstreet, To Wall Street, to Washington.  Now from a reliable source comes the confirmation that the numbers were "fixed" to borrow from the president's Obamacare vocabulary.  But the worst part is that the Census Bureau, which does the unemployment survey knew it.

Just two years before the presidential election, the Census Bureau had caught an employee fabricating data that went into the unemployment report, which is one of the most closely watched measures of the economy. (So this person was like a reverse Edward Snowden?!?)  A knowledgeable source who asked to remain anonymous for now but who will talk with the labor Department and Congress if asked, says the deception went beyond that one employee, Julius Buckmon, and that it escalated at the time President Obama was seeking reelection in 2012 and continues today!!  FYI Buckmon said in an interview this past weekend that he was told to make up information by higher-ups at Census!

I guess that some people will do anything to win (see hanging/dimpled chads).
