Everything he has ever done was indeed done for him, not by him.

I do not own a business, but I have friends/family who do. This list is likely far from thorough, but it's a start. So on their behalf:
ODrama: “You Didn’t Build Your Business"
Is that so? Who was it that was getting up at 5 in the morning to go to work? Who was it who managed the books, keeps track of receipts, bills, maintenance costs, fuel costs? Who was it who tracks employees times? And not just hours they worked, but hours for vacation time accumulated, for sick time, overtime, training times (starting and current)? Who manages the myriad of governmental rules and requirements and Union rules and OSHA rules, environmental rules, fire rules? Who was it who watched and managed sales, refunds if needed, warranty and guarantees? Who stood alongside the people in manufacturing to help out when the flu knocked a bunch of people out of the line? Who maintains inventory, removed old/expired products from it? Who stays for hours after the end of day to clean the place, watch for potential signs of infestation and address it? Who went for weeks and months without a check so his/her workers DO get their paycheck? WHo was it who purchased a car or truck for the business. Who drove people home during a storm (or picked them up)? Who was it who takes all responsibility for paying bills, vendors, taxes, health care, unemployment, social security, etc etc etc?
It was the owner. The guy who put all he had on the line to produce something, to create a business.. to employ people and pay a fair wage. It wasn't the town. It wasn't the IRS or OSHA. And it sure the hell wasn't the likes of YOU. Go away you hypocrite.
“wife and kids travel the world ...”
Agreed!! Speaking of Michelle - This past Saturday my daughter 23 (rising 3L at Washington and Lee Law) and her boyfriend had a flight out of La Guardia for North Carolina to attend the wedding of a fellow Washington & Lee law school friend. The flight was supposed to leave at 10:00. The flight did not leave until 2:00 pm. Guess why??? Michelle Obama was flying in. They missed the ceremony although made it to the reception. People were NOT happy!! The arrogant elitist entitled attitude is absolutely sickening!!!! Why did she surrender her law license, anyway? I wish someone would look into THAT mess.
Thanks for listening to the rant - clearly I am still angry that my daughter missed the wedding.
I experienced this attachment recently when our libinlaw was at our house and was VERY ANGRY that we had “prepper items” in our house.
She just kept repeating how “insane” it was, but I read right through it - our preps were pointing out the imminent failure of her worldview.
The fact that you were seen to be prepping also amounted to a threat. Fundamentally mentally disturbed individuals respond with denial and insults - and that’s exactly what you got.
Hey, I don’t have a business! Where’s my business, Hussein? I want it! Give it to me!
We are in big trouble.
I walked out of my last time card job when I was about 38. I am now almost 73.
I worked as a bookkeeper for small businesses. I was also already doing books for smaller places than the one where I worked 40 hours a week & walked out. The owner blamed me for something I didn’t do and told a vendor of such blame. Problem? I already knew that vendor before I took that job. I was pissed. I walked out.
I had $69 in my bank account when I left that desk. My current cycle of bills were paid. I went out & found more work by word of mouth. I worked for small businesses which didn’t need a full time bookkeeper. Some months I billed only 2 hours to a small business.
I paid my own health insurance.
I paid for my own supplies, lights, heat & auto expenses.
I made more money working for myself & paying higher SS taxes than I made working for a time card paycheck.
I still have 2 active clients. I have worked for one over 40 years & the other over 37 years.
I don’t have a single recollection of the government finding me any clients.
I don’t remember the government helping me to meet deadlines for payroll reports, etc.
I don’t remember the government paying one single health insurance premium.
I don’t remember the government buying me one single tank of gasoline or one single set of spark plugs.
The idea that I didn’t build my business out of nothing to a client list of as high as 19 clients all by myself is beyond insulting.
That imposter in the Oval Office couldn’t work for me doing simple alphabetical filing of paid bills.
His ‘wife’ is not one lick better.
“Anyways, I don’t mean he’ll try to hide his defeat.”
He will merely declare a state of emergency and suspend the Constitution.
In discussing Zero’s comments about “the Feds building your business”
my family was contemplating a careers as a Community Organizers.
We had questions as to were do we start school, what are the pay scales, requirements and where would be the best locations to start.
We only came up with one answer to the questions and are looking for outside help on the others.
We did come up with the best place to start and that was Chicago. It seems to have “business style” conducive to making “Fast” money. The ladder to success seems to rise rapidly from that arena.
Business partners that need help can call the White House. Solyndra got help why can’t you and I?
F U B O !
“Most people are thinking about the 2012 elections...Obama is thinking about the Revolution. He has no plans to step down.”
Absolutely. We’d better believe he’s had his minions researching every nuance of declaring martial law.
The soundbites for the Romney campaign just keep on coming!
America is confronted with the greatest evil in the history of mankind. His satanic imps are his nnnhand-picked retinue of sycophantic zombies. I honestly believe him to be the son of Satan!
Let’s join together and MAKE it fail. Then just stand by and watch as Democrats and Republicrats go down in the Potomac together with their arms wound around each others neck in the true spirit of partisanship.
If American had a Francisco Franco or an Augusto Pinocet these traitorous dogs wouldn’t last but a few days.
Our Founding Fathers would have started shooting by now. Hell, for that matter they would have been FINISHED BY NOW!
Well, that would have been a welcome option indeed.
If the criminal communists now in charge of ruining America did concisively win, those lazy asses would be the first to be forced to dig a large trench to contain their bullet ridden bodies. They’re totally unproductive but have served the evil regime well by their legal and illegal votes.
RIP
