The republicans better pick a strong leader nationally who can lay this bastard out hard in the media and just deal with the media slings and arrows or else they’re asses will be the blame for all the layoffs. Yea I know magical messiah is the leader of the country and his party runs the senate but the media will still be covering for this flop of a president because they WILL NOT as fat lazy white liberals allow the first black prez to get the blame.
Conservatives better make sure they tie all these job loses to the healthcare bill or else they’re gonna be blamed and big mean business will be blamed.
*their not they’re
it’s 5am :)
Corning Glass Works laid off 225 ppl today.
CEO is a big Obama fan.
Obamacare is no longer a what-if; it is the future of health care in America. It also means a near immediate impact on the economy. With 20 or so new or higher taxes set to be implemented, ranging from a $123 billion surtax on investment income, through the $20 billion medical device tax, all the way down to the $600 million executive compensation limit, Obamacare will be a nearly unbearable tax burden on the economy. Who will pay? The middle-class workforce, of course.Great, those huge budget deficits will make a great wedge issues in a couple of years. NOT.
The husband of a friend of ours was laid off yesterday, along with about 100 of his coworkers. They were told directly that the action was necessary because of Obama’s reelection and Obamacare.
My wife, who runs the food bank at our church, had to run over to meet his wife at the food bank to give them food. Another Obama success story!
Worse - he told Lockheed and the other big defense contractors NOT to issue the advance notice of pending layoffs required by the WARN Act. He said the taxpayers would pay the contractors’ legal fees when the fired employees sued the contractors for violating the WARN Act.
Executive Order #138.......... Thou shalt not lay off any body
You missed a few.

As a current member of the heath care work force, I have scanned the landscape and the vista looks rather bleak. On the one hand, in 14 months, ObamaCare goes live and 30 million newly “insured” individuals will flood the system.
It will be all hands on deck. So if there are hospitals and clinics, drug stores etc that don’t want to play...well they will be assimilated into GHC (GovHealthCare) ala GM.
Us workers who remain will be highly underutilized but sought after by the ever Obama friendly SEIU.
And how many Catholic facilities might no longer exist by then? I know what our letter from the Bishop said several months ago, “We shall not comply.”
I wonder how many people that are going to be laid off in that list above voted for Obama?
If we were forced to give FDR 8 more years, it would be racist to deny Obama the same privilege.
What makes you think he is leaving office in 2016???
The best thing that could happen is mass layoffs in the media. Maybe then they’ll report the truth.
We will be dancing the Charleston in no time!!
(SARCASM OFF)
Not to mention the huge numbers of layoffs that’ll occur in the contracting ranks because of sequestration.
What we’re seeing here is only the beginning.
Thanks, America. You stepped in it this time... big time.
They'll just increase the number of "Gay" and "Muslim" days.
Not so; the left has already redefined middle class to include unionized labor.
If you look back, Romney referred to "mid level earners", at least tacitly recognizing the difference between middle class and overpaid labor.
I told a friend yesterday that I was predicting between 40,000 and 60,000 BUSINESSES going OUT of business in the rest of 2012 and 2013. He thought I was too high.
I told him if there are 50 states, that is an average of 1200 businesses per state. I could probably find 200 such businesses in the Co Calif San Fernando Valley alone to fulfill my prophecy.
