LETTER FROM THE BOSS..... As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama is our President and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way. To compensate for these increases, our prices would have to increase by about 10%.
But since we cannot increase our prices right now due to the dismal state of the economy, we will have to lay off six of our employees instead. This has really been bothering me, since I believe we are family here and I didn't know how to choose who would have to go.
So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lot and found six 'Obama' bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go. I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. They voted for change, I gave it to them. I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

Tom Good one guy  . But the only thing wrong with the statement is  .......No one with a JOB voted for him. He's our Welfare President. We all gonna be on it before its all said and done. I'm just waiting for the 'world' to start loving the US because Nobama is in the White House. The more he keeps showin the love the more the world just laughs in his face. He is at the Summit now trying to make nice with Chavez. I love that one!!!

I really don't like getting into political back and forth but really Obama is giving people tax cuts but the real problem is that he is raising taxes on other things like energy that more than compensates and actually raises taxes for everyone. I have learned that Obama is much more manipulative than I gave him credit for. He also knows how to play the media game. We are going to have to watch like hawks every bill passed because He also knows how to insert the things in bills that he wants passed.

ROFLMAO..are you joking scanner. almost everyyear since iv'e been paying taxes iv'e gotten money back. from the federal goverment. i made less last year than in previous years and got whopped with a 2,100 dollar tax bill that i had to pay in. i'm a working stiff just like alot of other people in here.. so if you think obama ain't gonna come for your money..you've got another thing coming. edit - image removed.And this has something to do with Obama how? He didn't come into office until this year. That tax bil;lwas a gift from your beloved Bushie....and if he was still there that money would be headed straight to his corporate base here and in Iraq. Turn off the Faux news and try at least visiting the reality based world once in awhile, it would be good for you.

Scanner, I think you need to get back to reality. Bush never had a 3.6 trillion dollar budget. Nobama's Budget that he is planning on signing is up to a whopping 3.6 TRILLION. An unprecidented dollar figure to date. The government CAN NOT keep spennding money it DOES NOT HAVE. Do we as a nation really need to spend 120 million to further the kennedy name at this point when we arre alrready in debt. This is not about democrat or republican. This is about spending what the government simply does not have. Simple economics is that if you spend you must get it from somewhere or some one to pay for it. We have the media on one hand who refuses to say anything about what he[obama] and the rest of the senate is actually doing unless it is against the republicans. Take for instance the tea party on tax day. All the media and top democrats denounced the actions of the people. Meanwhile it was acceptable for everyone to bash bush. You can't have it both ways. For the record I am not just bashing the current administration, I am bashing the entire current government. That means both parties. Let us not forget the campaign promise that he would end the war. Oh, that's right, he just sent over 24 thousand more troops. Does that sound like he is ending the war? Thank you, I needed to get that off my chest.

Slow down guys, think a minute, what was the deficit in 1900? 1920? 1940? 1970? 1980? 1990? 2000? 2008? Nobama is just following suit. It ain't Nobama, wasn't Bush nor Clinton. There are greater powers at work here. They are the picture we see hanging on the wall, what about the frame that holds it to the wall? I don't care for spin doctor Beck but he did have a graph on his show once showing the deficit on a near even plane for 70-80 years then then over the past 20 + years it has skyrocketed, each administration getting worse. Suppose for a minute there is a master plan by the powers to be that in order to own and control everything they first have to create such massive debt that the people could never repay it. It is their debt because their elected officials created it in their name. The people, out of shear frustration in not knowing what to do about such debt surrender all their property and rights to be forgiven that debt. Sound like a conspiracy theory? Well, what happened in 1929? Anyone around back then? Lots of stock market investing, lots of debt, then a crash, the powers to be buy up everything for pennies on the dollar. Looks like the same scenerio cept a lot larger debt. Jesus said to owe no man, otherwise we become that man's servant. Oh well.
Ya'll wouldn't want me as president. First thing I'd do is surround the Fed Bank in New York, take the peoples gold back and hold it in reserve and issue currency based only on the GNP in combination with how much gold is in reserve; restore all our rights; abolish about 95% of all federal agencies; aboulish the IRS; outlaw the CFR; abolish the NEA; nulify NAFTA and other harmful trade agreements; ban the Trilateral Commission from our shores; increase services to all our veterans; strengthen our military; open our oil reserves; return rights taken from the states back to the states; hold parents accountable for raising their children, not the govt; make everyday an Official Ride Your Valkyrie Day; enlist Strider as my Secratary of State of Mind; recruit Smokin Joe as the Tansportation Ride Dirctor; make Daniel Meyer's books availabe to all; Willow and Scott will be my internet spam blocker gurus; and require somebody to come out with a new Valk. The rest would take care of itself. Freemarket economy. And there wouldn't be any handouts. Sorry.

No Bush never had a 3.6 billion budget...He actually would have had a 3.9 trillion budget but he kept the cost of Iraq and Afghanistan off the budget by funding them thru "emergency" budgeting. Like he was shocked every year that we were still there. Hell, we'd be there a hundred years if he was still there and his buddies could figure out how to keep stealing billions from us.
