Don’t worry 1st, I’m sure he is just another person posing as a race-baiter like those previously exposed on this site. Probably some weany white kid who is still mad at the world.

But I am tempted to recall a story from just a few days ago. A black man mentioned how he was going to “kick down whitey’s door and give him some justice” if Obama is harmed. I told him to try mine first. Save some people a lot of trouble. Of course he wasn’t a bigot either. I’m just trying to picture this racial harmony the media keeps chirping about.

“That will be 2.5 million new union members and their families. This adds up to 5 million democrat voters”

and in creating those 2.5 million life-time sinecures, many more than 2.5 million private sector jobs will be destroyed.

Government / Union jobs are the most inefficient possible:
Workers can’t be fired.
Guaranteed raises.
Gauranteed non-economic benefits and pensions.
Guaranteed lifetime reductions in productivity, year over year.
Qualifications are based on color, sex, sexual preference, not ability.
Overhead is astonomical. Nobody has an incentive to improve.
Service is inviolately established by law or union rules. Once set, changes require an act of congress.
The objective of the job is continuation of the job, not production of marketable goods and services.

It’s why bloated beauracracies signal the end of civilizations.

Colonel1961 – they’re called “Government jobs.”

There’s even an acrronym for it in D.C. – a “WAG applicant” – Washington Area Government.

As an example, how many tens of thousands of new Federal Employees will be required to run the new Department of Carbon Caps and Trades?

How many to staff the Department of Global Warming Mitigation?

Add the general growth of the Government in general, and you get the idea.

That will be 2.5 million new union members and their families. This adds up to 5 million democrat voters and a $100 million dollars in union donations to the democrats.

I had no idea that the Gubmint created jobs – I thought it was the private sector. I guess I’m just old fashioned…

The republicans of great intelligence have put up a lame candidate and they are thinking since so many people went the messiah route that this is where we want our country to go hence Republican talking-heads have no balls!!!!!!

What is it with this jerk-off? His ego barely fits on the entire internet. How can they manage to sell this pompous ass to the public with such alacrity when half the population has him pegged as the tool of sinister interests? So I have a plan.

There must be some campaign money somewhere that can be freed up for some air time to counter the propaganda machine of the “one”. Just like the democrat responses to every utterance of GWB over the last seven years.

What the hell is “the office of the president-elect” anyway? From where did it spring? Who gives this peckerhead a forum as if he were already in the oval office. Where are the Republican talking heads? Better yet, where are the Republican talking-heads” balls?

Arrrrrrrrrrghhhh!!!

He’ll get half of those jobs from a decent recovery, if he can just keep the gov’t out of the way. The rest should be doable. 2.5 million is pretty much a modest proposal.

And to “pinandpuller”, that 500,000 shovels comment was condescending, and ignorant. I hope you were tongue-in-cheek because it didn’t come across that way.

Let me guess: The Maximum Leader will guarantee those jobs by placing 2.5 million people in labor camps.

“…Mr. Obama said he would direct his economic team to design a two-year stimulus plan with the goal of saving or creating 2.5 million jobs.”
This line was in a front page story in today’s Dallas Morning News. It would appear he is backtracking again. How will it be determined as to exactly how many jobs he ’saves’?

2.5 million jobs in 2 years is utterly pathetic and of course the msm will gush over every new employ by any employer anywhere and at anytime. What I still find disgusting is the way the msm ignored any shortcoming of BHO in order to take credit for getting that socialist elected. Anybody want to bet GE gets a bailout when “the messiah” takes office? He owes them BIG!!!! In turn he’ll continue to get the cover he needs to F@#$-UP the country!

Apparently SG, you did not get the msm memo which said blame every bad thing on Bush and ignore the good news.

Better shape up or it is to the salt mines for you.

BTW, I have the tequila , lime and trepalsect concession there so maybe we can work something out.

It is always 5 oclock somewhere.
