Hip-Hop BBQ and the Jobs Report

If you think this isn't racist, just ask yourself this -- would we see such a headline if the president was white?

Ironically the jobs numbers for July were fairly good, but they cannot be attributed to the "Hip-Hop BBQ," so perhaps in that single regard Fox Nation is correct.

154,000 private sector jobs were added to the economy during the month of July, while some economists had predicted that as few as 75,000 would be added.

However, 37,000 federal, state, and local government jobs were lost over the same period, lowering net job growth to 117,000.
