But there simply isn't any interest in the matter. No interest in the matter is why the polls have gone south and Bush's poll numbers are taking a huge hit on the jobs issue. Right. Care to yank our chains on that one again. The reason the Democrats are on it is because it is getting response - else they would have dropped it already. They needed an issue and you guys gave them one. Everyone with a job that doesn't require that job to be here in the states is worried about losing it now. And you can't pacify that with swipes at them being responsible for losing their own jobs. My home town employs workers from Chrysler, Benz, & Delphi. Delphi is packing up and leaving for mexico this summer to take advantage of slave labor, that will be a massive hit to the middle class. And if you think for one second they won't blame a President that said it's good for them to lose their jobs on national TV, you're out of your bloody mind. If you think the Unions won't back Kerry, you're nuts. And if you think that chunk of the Middle class won't have legs going after us, you sir are from another planet.
"No interest in the matter is why the polls have gone south and Bush's poll numbers are taking a huge hit on the jobs issue. Right. Care to yank our chains on that one again."
It's just wishful thinking on your part to think that because you are getting canned that so too will the U.S. President.
But it won't happen. President Bush will win his re-election this year by more than 18 electoral votes no matter how much you whine about losing your IT job.
IT is changing. That means that a lot of IT folks are going to have to change, too.
And you aren't expected to like it. By all means cry in your beer and scheme up ways to cause trouble for President Bush...but your efforts on that front are as likely to succeed as is beer-crying is to helping your job search.
