Pallone's "Recovery" Dies Amidst Rising Unemployment
Candidate Anna Little slams Pallone and Pelosi for the 54,000 jobs lost in August

Highlands, NJ- Pallone and Pelosi have whipped up a toxic mixture of reckless spending, "Bureaucrats-Gone-Wild" regulation, and top-down economic control -- and breaking economic news reveals just how deadly it has been for our economy.

The US Labor Department announced Friday that the nation's unemployment rate has once again begun to climb; it currently stands at 9.6 percent, 48 percent higher than its level when President Barack Obama was elected in November 2008.

Candidate Anna Little believes that it is time for Frank Pallone and Nancy Pelosi to take responsibility for the economic mess that they have made. "By excessive borrowing, taxing, spending, and regulating, progressives are doing precisely the opposite of what we should be doing to allow our economy to thrive and produce jobs," Little said. "They need to get out of the way of the private sector economy."

Frank Pallone and Nancy Pelosi, however, don't seem to be getting the message. They have supported calling the latest economic news -- a net monthly loss of 54,000 jobs -- "positive news." Little, however, understands what the people in Congressional District 6 are thinking: Who in their right mind sees the loss of thousands of jobs as positive?

Even worse, there are hints to the media that they are planning a "Stimulus II." Reports and op-eds in the New York Times, the Christian Science Monitor, and other liberal media organizations suggest that it will contain direct aid to states, a disastrous and expensive policy eliminated decades ago -- as well as massive investments in public works, a tried-and-failed strategy that discouraged private investment and prolonged the Great Depression.

Like a medieval doctor bleeding his patient, Progressives insist that the right treatment is more government, more leeches. "It is working as intended," The Times opined Saturday.

"It is time that America wakes up to the progressives' perverse intentions," Little said. "If we allow them, they will destroy our prosperity, our way of life, and what makes our country great."
