I’ve been in that business longer than Richard McCormack has been a writer, and it started well before George Bush took office.
Another jerkoff journalist who never walked the walk.

Another jerkoff journalist who never walked the walk
An amazing leap of illogic, IMO -- the primary point of the article is that manufacturing has suffered economic collapse at the same hands (Congress, et.al) as those who crafted the circumstances that led to financial meltdown yet no special effort to "bailout" or "rescue" a basic building block of the economy.
Intel should be ashamed.
That's a lie, Jack Kilby (Texas Instruments) won the Nobel prize in 1990 for this invention:
Jack Kilby: Nobel Prize Winner
"Mr. Kilby delivered his Laureate Lecture on "Turning Potential into Realities: The Invention of the Integrated Circuit." He spoke to an audience of about 800 on the campus of Stockholm University, where students, teachers, journalists and members of the Royal Swedish Academy were in attendance."
