The Conspiracy theory ???

I don't believe having Jack Welch leading the way of accusing the Labor Dept and the Obama campaign of "cooking the books" just coincidental..It was not by accident
If Rmoney or anyone in his campaign would have brought up this issue of conspiracy then it would have been laughable.
.....So enters Karl Rove and his deceitful political manuvering..He knew by using Jack Welch,a successful CEO,to make the accusations then it would have more clout..would draw the corporate media into the discussion...So I don't believe all this was Jack Welch making these stupid accusations on his own..I think he was called upon by Karl Rove to do his duty as a right wing nut to put a damper on these positive numbers...But don't think it worked because too many economists and Labor Dept economists called him out on this bullshit...
Yes...I really think Karl Rove is mixed in with this Bullshit..

Climate change, birth certificates, Fast & Furious, skewed polls, unemployment numbers, shocking 'never before seen' video, the left wing media, the list goes on. Desperate attempts to latch on to anything.

As the CEO of GE, he has the power to put tens of thousands back to work RIGHT NOW. CEOs have far more direct control on job hiring than the president or congress! Are CEOs tanking the US economy for their own greedy purposes? And what can that be called apart from straight-up unpatriotic? THAT's the debate I'd like to see, and people like Jack Welch would LOSE.
