Airing right now...said the real unemployment is at 17.5%...showing tons of people with masters, bachelors, phd's, you name it...unemployed for 2 years...can't even get jobs at Target.
Or setting it up so the Bamster can confiscate more via one of his next solutions, i.e. 401k confiscation or leveraging all Fannie and Freddie Property as collateral for our 200 Trillion of debt.
Rush made a comment a short time back that the libs will not admit they are wrong. In their mind we are just too stupid to understand and they’ll need to get more aggressive.
BO has subsequently said this in his speeches. That we are too afraid to think clearly.
Thanks very much for posting this in time for many of us in the western U.S. to watch the show.
of course it matters if ya vote for a communist or not. Are you nuts?
Where are you at?
I am sitting here watching “Sinbad and the Eye of Tiger” on TCM. Good lord almighty, Jane Seymour was hot in the 1970s.
Oh yeah.
The wall to wall stories about tent cities and such that they are IGNORING right now.
One thing is for certain, though. Come November, BOTH PARTIES will own this economy. There is only results from now on. The election isn't an end, it is just to get back in the game.
it is also on Usenet in the “teevee” group if anyone wants it.
401k confiscation is coming.
Good cynical thinking.
They aren’t afraid. Obama’s plan is to destroy America and bring it into socialism/communism. The more things worsen, the harder they’ll push their false utopia of government being the answer to everything.
Lack of advertising revenue finally hitting CBS’ bottom line...and it just dawned on the Ivy League helmsman there what has been transpiring...
You got it! They are probably in the works as we speak. They think this will give them some credibility. They know the Rats are done and are prepping the comeback.
No, a realist....
In dire economic ciricumstances, people begin to fear that they’re next, and actually begin to contemplate needing the food stamps and the extended unemployment benefits associated with liberal politics. That’s the dynamic here, ramping up the fear.
It’s not about who’s to blame or who’s “better” at addressing the problem, it’s about who is perceived to be more likely to support them, since they’ve been reduced to worrying about day-to-day. They’re taking the fear that should be working against them and making it personal, which is to their advantage.
That’s why Newt’s stroke of genius of a few weeks back was so stupid, he came across as attacking food stamp recipients just when a large number of people who’ve never been unemployed in their lives have begun to need the benefits they’ve paid for all their working lives and currently see no way out.
Nice goin’ Newt, you handed them their positioning on a silver platter, in an environment that was otherwise going to be almost impossible for them. Brilliant!
I live in CA and got over that long ago. That's what the Internet is for..to get information in real time.
In 2008, 50% of the people polled thought the GOP still ran the Congress.
Young College people destroyed their own futures by voting Democrat in 2006 and 2008.
Having lived through the nightmare of Carter at the same age, I HAVE NO SYMPATHY for them. ELECTIONS have consequences, they really do.
So you're passing up smart, motivated employees with known work ethics because they'll leave when things get better?
That seems incredibly short-sighted. Even if you're right and they leave when the economy picks up, when exactly do you think that's going to happen? It could be another four or five years into the future... or it may not happen at all.
