A lot of government workers already get the day off on the taxpayers’ dime. Many are poll workers. I believe the UAW has a paid holiday on election day as well.

Has he thought that through? I thought that the vast majority of those at home watching Oprah and munching on Cheetos were voting for Obama.

I think all working people should stay home NOV 5 if BHO wins.

Whatever it takes.

BO could campaign on making every Monday a legal holiday. Then, for his next term, promise to make every Friday a legal holiday. Then, for his next term... etc.

Here's a list, Time Off to Vote for Employees - State by State survey. There are already many states that allow paid time off to vote. With all the early voting (for three weeks!), absentee ballots, I don't see why this even an issue.

Bingo. Next he’ll suggest his devotees bring matches and gasoline “just in case”.

I’m already taking the day off to volunteer. I hope his voters get drunk, pass out, and forget to vote.

Exactly.

Why should I work or care if Odinga Hussein Obama is running things?

Afterall, it's the idiots who are working that will pay for all the free stuff that Obama has promised.

Here’s the answer to the question of what ACORN could possibly do with a whole bunch of “just” fraudulent voter registrations.

I voted absentee yesterday, so I’m taking the week off.

Better watch out - under ol’ Bama, you will likely lose that retirement nest egg... he will force you to give it up to “spread the wealth” to those less fortunate.

In a complete Marxist regime, personal wealth is only allowed for those who directly support the Marxist dictator - and even then, only if you had the wealth to begin with and have “shared” it with the Marxist leader.

“I call for moving election day to April 16.”

Or Tax day to November 3rd.

What a moron. Encourage his bots to skip work so they can get in the face of hard-working folks who find time to vote AND work.

That'll lose him a point or two in flyover country. Another great viral opportunity for the GOP.
