Former Bush-appointed Head of BLS laughs at simple-minded wingnuts

Keith Hall, who served as Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics from 2008 until 2012, said in an interview Friday that there is no way someone at the agency could change any of the data from its two monthly employment surveys. Hall, who said he was 'thoroughly embarrassed' Friday by the reaction of some from his side of the aisle, said that the best explanation of how much they should be embarrassed, he read at the blog, 'done that'.

. Wow, I'm both surprised and honored, Mr. Hall. Thanks.
