so they will still be laid off, just not notified in accordance with the law?

So, people have to wait until after the election to learn who gets the chop. Yeah, that is going to make family budgets fun...

Is this finally the outrage that is TOO blatant for the likes of the NYTimes, ABC, MSNBC, to ignore?

He's breaking the law to influence the election and he's not even trying to hide it.

Without a vigilant press, we are doomed to armed revolution.

Just when I thought I couldn’t be more of a Boeing fan...

The upside is that every worker at L-M knows that Obama is not only the reason this is being hidden, but is the reason that the cuts are happening in the first place. They also know that Obama tried real, real hard to keep people just like them from having good jobs in SC by siccing his labor board on Boeing. And, our guys will be able to pound away at this from the stump just as much as they could pound away at actual losses.

So what are we saying here?
That the workers at Lockheed Martin are stupid? That they do not read news papers? Watch TV news?
Regardless of a memo going out in November wouldn’t you think that most of the workers there have some knowledge of this possibility?

Lockheed Martin got the message there was an existential threat if they went ahead with the notices and Obama was re-elected.

Defense contractor Lockheed Martin heeded a request from the White House today — one with political overtones — and announced it will not issue layoff notices to thousands of employees just days before the November presidential election.

How sweet it would be if Mitt Romney would bring this up at the first debate and kindly inform the public that their job literally is at stake in this election.

Every corrupt government SOB involved in this incident should be fired. Actually I am not sure how this can be legal. A bribe is implicit here although I am not sure how one would prove that legally.

they should issue a notice that they will NOT be able to issue layoff notices, by request of Obama

that should go over just as good

But aren’t they required by law to give so much notice?

That man should be impeached for using the power of government to change the outcome of the election.

Those Lockheed workers know what’s in the wind if Nobama is re-elected. Either no budget or cut budget—same difference. They will not vote for Nobama. Lockheed is being extorted somehow.

"We have come too far to abandon the change we fought for these past few years.
We have to move forward to the future we imagined in 2008 where everyone gets a fair shot, and everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same rules.
That’s the choice in this election and that’s why I’m running for a second term as President of the United States.”

~Barack Obama

This is clearly an impeachable offense, as are numerous other infractions. So what do we do about it? Continue to allow him to operate above the law?

I am tired of feeling outraged everyday. I want action.
