They're all this country has left, and Oboma is out to destroy them the same way his unions destroyed big industry in this country.
The left doesn't seem to understand where their welfare checks really come from. They think they magically appear in the mail box once a month.

I had a friend who works for a plumbing fixtures and parts company tell me over the weekend that it’s just dead, nothing is moving. He works in the Indiana/Ohio border area and he says in 35 yrs. he has never seen it this bad.

My Dad who runs a small business says he hasn’t seen it this bad since the early 1960’s. Just graveyard dead.
