If we were still counting unemployment the same way we were when Bush left office the rate would be 11% today. As it is Gallup says it's 9.1% using the same numbers that the BLS uses. The Obama Administration uses "Seasonal Adjusted" to lower the rate to 8.3%.
This isn't the slightest bit true.
BLS has not changed the way they calculate the U3 rate since Obama has been President. The number is calculated the SAME way.
different number
