This is the main photo on Drudge's site right now. Incredible!
A job isn’t a right, but at least she seems to want a job. To many people think welfare is a right.
Now wait a minute. I can’t agree with most of the posters on this thread. Our country was founded on the basis of freedom to pursue happiness. That really cannot be done without a job. I don’t know what I would do if I lost mine.

ROFL!
It is illegal for me to have a lemonade stand, mow your lawn or babysit without the appropriate “license” according to most state statutes - so I had to hold this lousy sign for summer work.

Good grief, It’s people like you who give the libs ammunition to say conservatives are stupid. Haven’t you ever heard of, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are LIFE, liberty and the persuit of happiness”?
"Give me stimulus or give me death!"

Sign the petition below – circulate to friends, family and co-workers. Let President Obama, Vice President Biden, Secretary of State Clinton, Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano, Attorney General Holder, U.N. Secretary-General Ban, Governors, Congressional delegations and legislatures of Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Utah, Georgia, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Missouri, Maryland, North Carolina, Idaho, Nebraska, Michigan, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts know you say NO to racist anti-immigrant Arizona laws SB 1070 and HB 2281 and the passage of similar legislation anywhere in the country, and that you demand legalization now, and no militarization of the border with Mexico.
To: President Obama, Vice President Biden, Secretary of State Clinton, Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano, Attorney General Holder, U.N. Secretary-General Ban, Governors, Congressional delegations and legislatures of Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Utah, Georgia, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Missouri, Maryland, North Carolina, Idaho, Nebraska, Michigan, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts, and members of the media
I hereby demand the immediate repeal of Arizona’s unconstitutional and racist anti-immigrant law SB 1070, which legalizes racial profiling by law enforcement and makes failure to carry immigration documents a crime. I also demand the immediate repeal of Arizona’s racist law HB 2281, which outlaws the teaching of ethnic studies, falsely claiming that Ethnic Studies courses promote hate and resentment. I call on governors and legislators in Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Utah, Georgia, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Missouri, Maryland, North Carolina, Idaho, Nebraska, Michigan, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and all other states to reject similar legislation wherever it is introduced.
I stand with the national leadership of the AFL-CIO, Service Employees International Union, and United Food and Commercial Workers, the City Councils of Oakland, St. Paul, Los Angeles, Boston, Washington, D.C. and San Francisco, the Mayors of San Francisco, Phoenix and Los Angeles, and the more than a million people who marched for immigrant rights in cities across the country on May 1 in calling for a boycott of Arizona until these racist laws are removed from the books. I further concur with AFL-CIO President Trumpka and Wade Henderson, President of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, in their demand that the Department of Homeland Security immediately stop cooperating with local law enforcement officials in Arizona under Section 287(g) agreements, which allow state and local police in Arizona to enforce immigration laws.
I further demand that the Federal Government take immediate action to intercede and overturn Arizona’s unconstitutional, racist and anti-immigrant law SB 1070, take further action to prevent similar legislation from being passed in other states, and provide legalization of all immigrants NOW! Militarization of the border with Mexico must end, and all troops and National Guard units must be immediately removed from the border! The money spent on border militarization should instead be spent to keep schools open and provide needed human services.
I call for rejection of all immigration plans, such as the Schumer plan, which would militarize the border, criminalize migrants and impose apartheid-like credentials or pass cards. I also call for repeal of NAFTA and all U.S. trade policies that undermine local economies in developing nations and confront working families with the choice: migrate or starve. Immigrant labor bolsters the U.S. economy and increases corporate profits, and by working for slave wages and paying taxes, immigrant workers contribute far more than their share to the US economy.
The Constitution of the United States forbids detention and arrest without probable cause and a warrant from a judge, calls for equal protection under the laws and bars racial profiling. Not only does Arizona law SB 1070 violate the Constitution in all of these respects, it institutes an apartheid style passbook regime.
Reject Arizona-style anti-immigrant legislation! End racist immigrant-bashing! Legalize all immigrants now!
I’m afraid most of you wouldn’t be saying this if the girl was white. Unemployment is very high for young people, and worse for young black people. At least she wants one. As far as sitting down, wouldn’t you if you had been holding up a sign, standing, for an hour or two? Most of us get to sit on our arse all day in a cool building.
She can't even do that, and expects a job.
A job is a contract between an employer and employee where the employer says: “You help me make some money, and I'll give you some of it.” Corollary: “If you don't, I won't.”
Gotta follow the business acumen of the Underwear Gnomes if you want to be successful:
The Underpants Gnomes are businessmen of sorts, and they claim to know a lot about corporations, so the boys eagerly ply them for answers. The Gnomes explain that their business plan is as follows:
Collect Underpants
Phase 2: ?
Phase 3: Profit
Yo Hire me.......cant chu see I b an aggresive motivated go getter??
Unable to live on her What's Happening!! residuals, Dee (Danielle Spencer) makes a statement.
“I’m afraid most of you wouldn’t be saying this if the girl was white.”
BS. America is not responsible for the color of this girl’s skin. Nor is she for that matter.
The notion that a job is a right is counter to what this very successful country was founded on.
Introducing race is changing the subject for no appropriate reason. The race card is dead.
outstanding...
A job is something that someone pays you to do. Noone has a right to something of someone elses. The woman has every right to work. What she wants is someone to pay her. That isn’t a right.
Read closely what some of these people are saying. Her protest has nothing to do with her race, yet that it what many are hinting at.
