If I did have an agenda it would be to call it like I see it. Some of the posts I see are to 'slap doom and gloomer', howbeit unduly.
Basically put don't go off passing personal judgement on me (or other freepers)...There are those who went 6 or 9 months on a job search.
Excuse me if I didn't care too much for hand delivering a few thousand resumes over a 6 month term through 3 different cities. But hey, 'we weren't in a recession' according to you... and 'everything is great'.
I found a job eventually, but does that qualify me as a gloom and doomer?
If I did have an agenda it would be to help other freepers not come across as condescending a-holes because the reality is out there.
In a much larger picture if any elected official anywhere near me made any insensitive (and ignorant) comments as the ones posted here, I would lead the charge to remove said politician from office. I would man the phones and go door to door even if he/she did have an (R) behind their name.
Why? Because who needs an idiot in congress?
If you want to cheerlead the economy thats fine. I do it all the time. One doesn't do that by insulting the people they are trying to cheer up. What kind of cheerleader is that?
This is a good news thread, yet you chose to come onto it and cavil and moan and groan and rant about HOW BAD THINGS ARE AND HAVE BEEN. Yeah...you're a damned doom&gloomer.
