Debbie Wasserman Schultz lied today about jobless rate under Obama

Blogging from Las Vegas.

I'm in the foreclosure capital of America right now. Which is ironic, because Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), the chair of the Democratic National Committee, said unemployment has not gone up since President Obama took office. That, my friends, is such a lie that her statement doesn't even reach the low measure of simply being wrong. The national unemployment rate was 7.8 percent when Obama was sworn in--it's now at 8.6 percent after peaking at 10.1 percent.

Here in Nevada the jobless rate is 13.4 percent.
