I remember I lived in one apartment complex where my rent was $340 a month. One of my neighbors was on public assistance and her rent was $3 a month and she was six months behind.

Don’t forget Lockheed [and other gov’t contracting] employees in VA. Estimated to be something like 200K ...

Obama got the companies to violate the FEAR Act by telling them that the gov’t would pay the fines if they would NOT send layoff notices by 1 Oct [as required by law] ...

They didn’t send out the notices - and Obama avoided an uptick in UE ...

The day AFTER the election, Lockheed gave out the pink slips [according to a guy who called in to the “Morning Majority” on WMAL 630 radio]. He just got his - and he knows of at least 3000 more ...

Way to go VA [in the election] - and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS !!! Hope you can buy presents, meet your mortgages, and put food in your childrens’ mouths ...

Ho !!! Ho !!! Ho !!!

She does express particular disgust for users, losers, entitlement scum and cheats. It is quite amusing at times. But I have seen her on other shows expressing her support for gay marriage, etc.

The private sector dominos are falling and it’s just what Obama wants.

I hope his workforce realizes that if they were in the 71% they lost....

They will realize that emotions don’t create or sustain jobs , and elections
have real consequences.

Sí lo hacen ( YES THEY DO)

Good to see that Jim McNerney, CEO of Boeing, isn’t phased by the economic
realities, even though he chaired one of Obamas job councils ( exports )

All we are going to hear from the lapdog media is that all these layoffs were planned and not Dear Leader’s fault,,,,,and those same media bots will be completely clueless to the fact they are revealing that the “recovery” is indeed NOT happening.

Yeah, Jim, that’s about right but remember we ABSOLUTELY have to keep the pressure on the House Republicans to not give Obamuzzie any new money——NONE.

and that it would add 10 to 14 cents to the cost of his pizzas

I wish every retailer, service company, etc. (at least those who see this for what it is) would put signs up when they have to raise prices - signs that say, "Due to increased labor costs from Obamacare - we have to raise prices. Please don't get mad at us, write to the President and your Congressman and Senators."

Even more interesting would be to tag on an "Obamacare Surcharge" on their tickets... be sure to include both the actual cost to the business, but also the administrative costs of compliance. That way every time someone buys something or a service, they are reminded what ObamaScare is really costing them... each and every day.

Somebody needs to put that on a poster. I expect to see it on some billboards soon.

And now there is another go-round of this.
Had Romney won, I was going to go ahead and order next year's appointment keeper just out of enthusiasm. So an appointment keeper maker didn't get my business this year.

Little remembered fact: in the period between election day and inauguration day last cycle, 2 million lay offs occurred. They were Obama lay offs, but credited to the Bush stats. Now, we’ll probably see another flood - businesses who thought Mitt would win and were hanging on, but now they’ll lay off big time.
