Again. Someone *really* needs to tell them that when it happens repeatedly, it’s only unexpected if one is a moron.

Adding to those 14,500 from Cisco & NASA, Borders is shedding 11,000 in its closing.

Heck of a job recovery, O!

It’s not all bad news. I start Monday on a new job, after searching for more than a year.

A new start in a new career, and the pay is pretty good, too, compared to what I expected I’d have to accept.

Praise God!

With Obozo as President, I am amazed that anyone in the private sector still has a job.

Good God!
I have to look up these things and put them on an easy to read chart. I didn’t realize how ignorant I’ve been about this for so long.
How Obama’s Knee-Pad Enemedia keeps doing what they do with a straight face every day defies reality.

Well, you’re neglecting to realize, as many on this forum, that what the MSM presents is crafted to their message. I.e., if a Republican did make the point the MSM would not report it. This is probably the largest indicator of their bias. I’d hope FReepers would at least be aware of MSM bias and the pratice of selective reporting.
