Thread title is from RedState although I didn't see it as a direct quote from the article; but, the article is pretty much self-explanatory. When these CEO's and other "wizards of smart" start realizing that the administration's policies are having the intended effect, maybe we will be on the road to recovery and then, impeachment, conviction, removal, incarceration, etc-ahh, but that is just wishful thinking.

The big problem is that the GOP doesn’t have the willpower to reverse the trend. The best we can hope for is that we go over the cliff at 10 mph instead of 100.

Short of being discovered in bed with a five year old, or having Bin Laden as a guest at the White House, 0bama is NEVER going to be impleached. Forget it.

I don’t know why people even fantasize about it.

Who’s going to impeach him? The democrat congress? Even if the republicans win, they won’t do it, short of something just terrible.

If we elect men like Allen West that will change.

Otellini: "Jobs will not be created here."

Bill Gates: Curbs on immigration and guest workers would provide a boost to research institutions in China and India. Rethink laws that led to foreign engineers being kicked out of the country as soon as they finish their degrees.

Fiorina: America's skilled-worker visa system is so badly broken and anti-immigration.

What difference does it make if jobs are created here, only to be given to imported workers?

Pretty ominous article, although I thought the writer’s attempt to tie in the immigration issue to the Intel CEO’s point was an unnecessary cheap shot.

I once viewed a video that someone secretly taped in which a certain large law firm was demonstrating at a conference to LARGE USA CORPORATIONS (DELL, IBM, HP etc) on how to advertise jobs in such a certain way as to ensure how NOT TO HIRE AMERICANS, and then make up the requirements to apply for foreigners to be imported on H-1 & H-2 visas and pay them less than their American counterpart!!

Needless to say I was hopping mad!!

This problem started under W and continues under Obama. Blaming only the Democrats is wrong.
