Jobless Benefit Rolls Hit 20-Year High

And that doesn't count the people who've been unemployed so long they no longer get benefits. Or people like me, who never got benefits in the first place because unemployed freelancers don't count.

Perversely, this makes me feel better. Economy aside, I've been wondering if I'm not getting a job because I suck. No, I'm not getting a job because this is the worst unemployment since Boy George was Top-40, parents trampled each other for Cabbage Patch Kids, and I was a third-greader wearing jelly shoes.

And here's our "president," waging an expensive war and getting people killed ("bring them on," indeed, you hypocritcal AWOL schmuck) based on bullshit evidence.

Damn, I was feeling better...
