Elections have consequences. We tried to tell you that, DUmmies. Governor Romney tried to tell you that. He said that Obamacare would be a jobs-killer. But did you believe him? Did you believe us? NOOO!! Well, guess what? Now that your beloved Barack managed to come up with enough votes in Florida, Ohio, and Virginia to get his sorry ass re-elected--which means that Obamacare now will not be reversed in the foreseeable future--guess what has started to happen, even starting the day after the election? That's right. Let the layoffs begin! You see, DUmmies, you get what you vote for.
The DUmmies are STUNED that such a thing could happen, as we see in this THREAD, "Vegas Employer: Obama Won–So I Fired 22 Employees." That evil, evil employer! How DARE he try to stay in business, much less make a profit! The dopes in DUmmieland cannot seem to make the connection that when the government increases the cost of doing business, either the business will try to find ways to compensate or else the business will go out of business. Duh! Or, I should say, DUh!
So let us now enter the world of the dense-headed denizens of the DUmp, in Bread Line Red, while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent, Charles Henrickson--telling the DUmmies, "Obama Recession Part Two? You OWN it!"--is in the [brackets]:
Vegas Employer: Obama Won–So I Fired 22 Employees
[What Obamacare does in Las Vegas, ends in lost wages.]
A Las Vegas business owner with 114 employees fired 22 workers today, apparently as a direct result of President Obama’s re-election. . . . "I explained to them a month ago that if Obama gets in office that the regulations for Obamacare are gonna hurt our business, and I’m gonna have to make provisions to make sure I have enough money to cover the payroll taxes, the additional health care I’m gonna have to do. . . ."
[Wow. Who could have seen this coming? Why, as a matter of fact, WE did. And we told you. But did you listen?]
Wow, just... wow. No words.
[Wow, just . . . two words: Obama. Care.]
Doubt this is even true. . . .
[If I pretend hard enough this didn't happen, then . . . it didn't happen!]
Will probably be hearing lots more of these "scary" stories in the next few weeks. . . .
[Try, the next few DAYS.]
I'd like to see a headline...that reads...Business Owner - "Obama won so I hired 22+ people"
[I hear the repo companies are hiring.]
Like he'd ever have 22 people he didn't actually need to run his business. . . .
if he fired 22, that would be because of waste.... unneeded employment.
[Or--now follow me on this--he could handle those 22 employees BEFORE, but NOW, because of the added cost of Obamacare, he has to scale back. Have you considered that? I know, that requires thinking, and thinking is hard. . . .]
I suspect Mr. X's business is located at the base of Bullsh*t Mountain.
[No, actually, it's located at the base of Costs Mountin'.]
Your employer can dump you anytime they want. Unless you are union you are one minute away from your last paycheck if your boss decides it is so. Without Obama Care you and your family are sh*t out of luck. I think he just illustrated why the ACA is so important.
[So let me see if I follow you on this. . . . Obamacare's costs may cause your employer to lay you off. In which case, you'll be out of work and . . . and you'll need Obamacare! Yes, just brilliant!]
most of obamacare not even underway yet, so this is pure BS. . . .
[Yes, pure BS! Whoever heard of a businessman planning ahead, taking steps to meet a looming crisis? That's just crazy!]
when you own a business, you do what you gotta do to survive.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
F the employer, the employees make the bussiness mostly anyway. . . .
[Who needs employers anyway? Employees can just employ themselves!]
No law has changed from yesterday to today.
[Hello!! Earth to DUmmie! What HAS changed is the chance of Obamacare being repealed in the near future. Is this too hard for you? You ARE able to tie your shoes, aren't you?]
Dickhead.
[Overhead.]
If an employer says that they have to cut back the number of employees as a business decision, they are free to do that. . . . His public reason why was because since Obama won, he needed to cut expenses now in order to be prepared for higher expenses later.
[But, but . . . IT'S NOT FAIR!!! WAAAHHHH!!!!]
his explanation for the firings was not that they were politically based, but were based on his belief that health care reform will adversely impact his bottom line and that, given the results of the election, that isn't going to change.
[It finally looks like comprehension is beginning to set in.]
What a POS.
[I know. Obama really is a-- No, wait. I think you're referring to the business owner.]
I call total and utter BS on the entire story. . . . I could call my local talk radio and claim to be the Cat God Bastet (from ancient Egypt). Wouldn't make it true.
[No, of course not. We all know you're really the Moonbat Goddess DUmeter (from ancient Babbleloonia).]
What an @sshole!!!!
[LEAVE BARACK ALONE!!!]
If this is true, his ability to do MORE business has just been curtailed. And the employees he has left are going to be overburdened and may burn out.
[By George, I think you're beginning to get it! . . . Which reminds me. This must be Bush's fault. Yep, Obamacare is Bush's fault.]
Needs his business confiscated. Since he can't run it properly and uses it to punish his employees, he shouldn't be allowed to own it. The State or City needs to confiscate under eminent domain and give it to someone responsible who will show more concern for the community.
[DUmmie TRJuan (14 posts), while I appreciate the effort, and that's CLOSE to what a real DUmmie might say, I think you're being just a LITTLE too over the top to not be spotted as a LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!! Nice try, though!]
sorry, but that's just ridiculous. . . .
[See what I mean?]
There were reports of this from other states on Freerepublic. None of them had enough information to research at all, so it's all just bullsh*t to try and scare Obama supporters.
[Actually, DUmmie Kablooie, the reports of massive layoffs, from multiple businesses, have now started to POUR in, from all across the country.]
Translation: I am a sh*tty businessman who's failed and is now scapegoating the black guy.
[Translation of DUmmie post: When all else fails, play the race card.]
Looks like another one is making excuses. . . . EAST CARBON, Carbon County — A Utah coal company owned by a vocal critic of President Barack Obama has laid off 102 miners. The layoffs at the West Ridge Mine are effective immediately. . . . They were announced in a short statement made public Thursday, two days after Obama won re-election. The layoffs are necessary because of the president's "war on coal," the statement said. . . . In its statement, UtahAmerican Energy blames the Obama administration for instituting policies that will close down "204 American coal-fired power plants by 2014" and for drastically reducing the market for coal.
[Obama is out to destroy the coal industry. Obama wins the election. Coal company takes measures to deal with the impending crisis. But, no, it's just "making excuses."]
[And so it begins: Layoffs. Reductions in force. Cutbacks in hours. Loss of benefits. We warned you. But, hey, you wanted to make sure Ol' Mattressback, Sandra Fluke, could get her free birth control! So thanks, DUmmies! Thanks for playing . . . YOU VOTED FOR IT!]
I take it that Kamp Kumbaya is now permanently closed.
The kamp directors had to lay off all of their kounselors.
I guess they have already forgotten about the Obama-loving Darden restaraunts going to part-time only?
Yes! JUNGLE BELLS! I’m done with walking on eggshells about the PC stuff.
Love Jungle Bells. I’m tired of the PC crap too. What we need for our side in the House is a jerkass who is not afraid to tell the truth, tell the Democrates where to stick it and is unapologetic. We need somebody like “Dr. House” from “House.”
Not only that but how about this:

Hey, DUmmies, it is the first of many job losses coming...
Doubt this is even true. . . .
How about the 2 businesses in PA, is that not True, DUmmies??
Will probably be hearing lots more of these "scary" stories in the next few weeks.
[Try, the next few DAYS.]
A few hours, my nephew (who works at Office Depot) is being laid off....unless he wants to be a part timer...
I'd like to see a headline...that reads...Business Owner - "Obama won so I hired 22+ people"
Yes, I heard that a company hired 22 people because of Obama -- IN BRAZIL
Like he'd ever have 22 people he didn't actually need to run his business. . . .
if he fired 22, that would be because of waste.... unneeded employment.
Hmmm... DU people explaining employment and business! I guess they took LIBERAL ECONOMICS 1 at the University of Mom's BASEMENT.
Your employer can dump you anytime they want.
DU poster, you are wrong, DU people don't have JOBS, unless watching daytime TV and drinking beer is a job by you guys since you get a WELFARE CHECK from the TAXPAYERS!!
F the employer, the employees make the bussiness mostly anyway
A graduate from the University of Mom's Basement in LIBERAL ECONOMICS, and he minored in Spelling!!
hich reminds me. This must be Bush's fault. Yep, Obamacare is Bush's fault.
LOL
Needs his business confiscated. Since he can't run it properly and uses it to punish his employees, he shouldn't be allowed to own it.
DUmmie TRJuan (14 posts), while I appreciate the effort, and that's CLOSE to what a real DUmmie might say
LOL...I think TRJuan is really a SOCIALIST!! (or a NUTCASE, but then 99.999999% of those people at DU are!)
A Utah coal company owned by a vocal critic of President Barack Obama has laid off 102 miners.
But don't you EnvironMENTALcases like that they won't be HARMING the planet??
Yes, we should have SENATOR Elect 'SQUAW SPEAKING BULL' as the logo!!
Maybe they can get a grant for the operating capital!
Just tell dear Leader ZERO that it will be 'GREEN ENERGY' and he'll give it to them.
Of course, if it was DU that would start a Company, I'd demand COD if I did business with them...
Even if they recognised that truth, they wouldn’t care. Socialists are ALL aout “equality”, even if the only equality possible is to the lowest common denominator, which is generally the case, as people can’t be more than they are, but they can easily be less.
It’s rampant in the black community where it’s known as “crabs in a barrel” syndrome.
Of course it is. If he hadn't personally bypassed Congress with secret executive orders to unconstitutionally cancel Medicaid and Medicare Obamacare wouldn't have been necessary.
Fortunately for all the poor non-white people who were starving while dying of easily treatable diseases under Bush's tyrannical reign of terror, Obama came to our rescue in the nick of time. And now thanks to the magic of Obamacare and Obama's mastery of fiscal sleight of hand, never again will any US resident of any age, gender, sexual orientation, skin color, or political ideology (except evil conservatism) die of any disease, old age, starvation, or even experience any physical or emotional discomfort at all.
I don't know about you ungrateful chronic complainers out there, but I can hardly wait to get my share of all those wonderful free benefits that we won Tuesday by simply voting a few times at different places. That may have been a bit too much exertion for some, but I was willing to pay the price for finally being assured by our president himself that I will get all the goodies that society owes me just for being alive.
BTW, this is a good time to stock up BIG on emergency supplies like food. Use coupons to cut/eliminate the cost. I am making plans to stock up with about 1000 cans of tuna, 1000 cans of spam and corned beef, sterno, etc.. I am also seeing barter as increasing drastically as hyperinflation kicks in. I wonder how many cans of food I can get with a bottle of Grey Goose? Let’s see... Get lots of body wash, trade for Grey Goose and trade that for the food supplies.
