I’m shocked, shocked ....
How about a national “Fire a lib” day.
Shrug, Baby, Shrug!
By design. Put everyone of food stamps, disability and part time work and you have a permanent Democrat majority.

Just more potential dem voters after they get the taste of unemployment, food stamps, housing assistance, loan forgiveness, free medical care, and free phones they will never want to go back to work! It’s all part of a democrat voter recruitment program: get them used to free stuff and they will continue to vote for more government give aways!
This one kind-of stunned me. Not that they are laying off; but, the amount. 30% is a pretty big lay-off from one section of the company (management). I live in the Seattle area, this one is going to hurt.
I have known that businesses have been holding a lot of their capital on the sidelines waiting for this guy to leave the WH. Well, since it will be another 4 years, they are off-loading people that they are not going to need, and I think they will be hunkering down for another 4 years.
I was hoping that he would be voted out; but, I think that we have gone over the tipping point and now more people than not want the govt. to give them stuff. My youngest daughter graduated from college in December of 2008. She could not find a job and after a year of trying, got a certificate to qualify to teach overseas and has been in Japan for over 2 years. I was hoping that she could come home soon if Romney was in and started unraveling this mess. But, I guess not. I miss her.

I imagine that it would have taken a couple of months for them to realize that Romney wasn't going to repeal Obamacare, just rebrand it. And then the layoffs would have happened anyway.
