Let the Lay-off Countdown Begin!!
theinformationparadox.com — Today, I had the displeasure of joining "who-knows-how-many" Americans who are on the verge of getting laid off or have just been laid off and I must say, it's a really ***** feeling.

- IdigObama, on 10/11/2008, -8/+6I hear John McCain might be looking for a new VP.
I hear He's not picky folks!
Obama/Biden 08!
I just have to rely on the good judgment of the voters not to buy into these negative attack ads. Sooner or later, people are going to figure out if all you run is negative attack ads you dont have much of a vision for the future or you're not ready to articulate it."

John McCains a liar and has no vision for Americas future!- uppitydiggers, on 10/11/2008, -0/+3"John McCains a liar and has no vision for Americas future!"
Yet Obama is different? ***** 'em both in '08. - tomjeff09, on 10/12/2008, -0/+2B. Hussein most certainly has a vision of America's future. His vision is the same as that of Karl Marx. Unfortunately for him, his goal to finalize the communist path we have taken cannot be completed until he disarms We the People. Unfortunately for him, that cannot be done without resistance.
You go ahead and dig Obama. I'm guessing your IQ to be in the double digit range and your common sense to be in the single digit range.
You can have my country...after you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

- sconnor, on 10/11/2008, -0/+4Been there, done that. Sounds like a song?
- JeffersonTrust, on 10/11/2008, -0/+7My Dad is in the process of being laid off. Interestingly, the company he works for had no problems until it was purchased by Warren Buffet!!!
Down with the two party system. Reelect nobody! If you get to vote (a very big IF), vote third party!! Both parties are equally responsible for the mess we are in and are owned by the same people.- pappyblueribs, on 10/11/2008, -1/+1Sorry, but that's going to happen no matter who is in office. It doesn't mean that the company he works for is evil, or that Warren Buffet is evil, or that your dad is a bad guy. It happens all the time to workers -- if you choose to take the easy way out (getting someone else to give you a paycheck and put your kid through college) then you also have to take the possibility that the employer might fire you. If that's your choice and you do get fired, well, just dust yourself off and get back in the game. Give your dad a hug and introduce him to Monster.com.
