LAS VEGAS (CBS Las Vegas) — A Las Vegas business owner with 114 employees fired 22 workers today, apparently as a direct result of President Obama’s re-election.
“David” (he asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) told Host Kevin Wall on 100.5 KXNT that “elections have consequences” and that “at the end of the day, I need to survive.”
Here’s an excerpt from the interview. Click the audio tab below to hear even more from this compelling conversation: . . . I’m just one guy with 114 employees — well was 114 employees — watch what happens in the next six months. The Dow alone lost 314 points today. There’s a tsunami coming and if you didn’t think this election had consequences, just wait.”

Yep ... saw that a couple of weeks ago. Zero really does want to be Mussolini.
True, but unfortunately, he lacks both the charm and intelligence.
The thing is they won’t see it as Øbama’s policy fault, they’ll only see it as their evil, greedy boss’ fault and blame him not the messiah’s.
That is what we will do. Take care of family and friends first. We have one sister struggling.
I think your numbers are probably very conservative. Not only are the links in the chain you mentioned affected, all the little businesses that have sprung up nearby to cater to their workforce are also impacted. All the restaurants that relied on workers on lunch breaks, the gas stations/convenience stores, liquor stores/bars, etc., soon seem to follow.
It’s a shame because there are still a heckuva lot of good, hard-working, decent kids who didn’t vote for this. Most of the people that voted for this are going to be completely unaffected. They’ll still be sitting on the couch in their taxpayer-funded housing, eating their taxpayer-funded food while the rest of us are struggling to keep a roof over our heads.
You are completely correct.
Heck, if they voted for him TWICE, they lack the critical thinking skills required to choose a breakfast cereal.
I need a vacation and I’m easily amused so start the rumour an efficiency expert is coming to have a look around. I’ll stare, watch and jot things down just for my own personal amusement! No charge to you! LOL
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
It's the degree of moral and religious decline between the entities.
Good for you!!! Charity starts at home, right?
Yea, charity does start at home. My family has been blessed with independence up to this time.
My husband’s father’s generation did a cool thing for each other. There were nine boys in the family and there was no way for their parents to help them through college. So the boys (my husband’s uncles) all worked to put each other through college. All but two got degrees. Three medical doctors.
I can only surmise that the Chicago machine, rather than simply stuffing ballots, figured out a way to convert a fraction of Romney votes to Obama votes.
We know what the crowd turnout was like for both candidates. Massive and exuberant for Romney, empty and gloomy for Obama.
We heard Obammie the Commie’s horrible speeches that sounded like a candidate who lost. We saw him cry from what must have been the first realization in his life that he lost. We heard Moochele’s concession speech.
We know 10 million fewer voters turned out for Obammie the Commie.
And now we find out that an alleged 2.5 million fewer people voted for Romney than for McCain!!???
I can see why people didn’t turn out for McCain. But after 4 years of an outright anti-American communist in the White House, I find it very hard to believe that those same people stayed home this year with an extra 2.5 million to boot.
No, they figured out some way, every 1000 votes or so, to switch a vote for Romney to Obammie the Commie.
That is why everyone, Romney AND OBAMA, were so shocked when Obammie the Commie won.
That’s a great story! Keep the love and charity amongst those who share your values, in other words, NOTHING FOR OBAMA SUPPORTERS, NOTHING.
The next time I’m out and some panhandler says “Change?”, my reply will be: “Go ask Obama”!
F*ck them.
Do as you please.
But realize this: She wrote tht book between 1947 & 48. It didn’t find a publisher until 1957.
What a prediction she made!!!
That’s what I basically did today. All Obuggery supporters are dead to me.
You have to do it. Remember, “Elections Have Consequences”.
She really nailed it. I’ve always thought that the genius of the book is in her portrayal of the Left, and what makes them tick. People can take or leave parts of her philosophy (and plot devices, for that matter), but the motivations and fallacious thinking of the looters is spot on.

That’s being talked about on Bill Cunningham’s show
