Obama: US economy still facing challenges
None
US President Barack Obama said Friday that the economy faces challenges ahead and "bumps on the road to recovery." But he made no mention of a dismal new jobs report at an event to celebrate the resurgence of the auto industry.
Obama's visit to a Chrysler plant in politically important Ohio came after the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that employers in May added the fewest jobs in eight months - a meager 54,000 - and the unemployment rate inched up to 9.1%. (AP)
