The Republicants Don't Give A Shit About The Jobless
They see the jobless as a vehicle to help them recapture the White House. The more jobless the better for them.


I write that as I sit next to three jobless people at the library furiously searching the internet for jobs; jobs for which there are four applicants for every opening.

May G-d have mercy on their cold hearted souls.

1. Sounds a lot like the anti-Communist rhetoric of the Cold War
Your Commie has no regard for human life, not even his own!

11. But in this case it is not propaganda.
Republican policy is deadly.

3. and this surprises you?
I thought there were a number of studies which showed this to be true: in some cases its actually measurable in the functioning of the brain.

5. No one cares about the unemployed.
Neither the government, nor the private sector. I'm looking forward to what Obama has to say on this topic.

7. Ronnie Raygun campaigned on the deficit and then made it 3 times larger.
Raygun said trust but verify. But I say, when it comes to Republicans, you can't trust them and there's no reason to verify because they always lie.

9. Yes they do care...
They want us to see the debate so we can choose one of the candidates so we can elect this person to give us the jobs we all need. Same as 2010. We all see how well they are doing here with all the jobs we have.

10. Pay Attention!
The Teapublicans have a two-part Jobs program:

Cutting taxes for their Wealthy Contributors and Corporations.

Overturning all those job-crushing regulations.

12. The Republican Party Is Comprised of Greedy, Talentless Dullards
who want to become far wealthier than their invidual skill level can achieve. So, they do what a talentless dullard would do. They grovel at the feet of the rich and powerful and do their bidding.
