Welch thinks the Obama jobless numbers are just plain wrong.
Former Chairman of GE, Jack Welch has referred to the Obama administration's latest jobs report figures as "unbelievable," suggesting they are false. 

CHICAGO, IL (Catholic Online) - The figure is key because no president has been reelected with figures over 8 percent. "Can't debate so change numbers," Welch tweeted. 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics says in their report that unemployment has dropped to 7.9 percent, which is the lowest it has been since Obama took office in 2008. 

Despite the nature of the coincidence and the credibility gap of the Administration, there is no hard evidence as of yet to suggest the numbers are inaccurate.
