Posted By david elosser

Not an isolated case- Obama's dwindling numbers have been going on for some time now...

ROMNEY in Ohio:
2012: 30,000 people

3 more, 3 more, 3 more
(Now admit it here, libs, if we really had 5 million jobs created as Obama touts, then how is it that 14.7 million more people are now on food stamps??? Wouldn't one expect the food stamp rolls to decrease with that much job creation?)

The true cost of Obamacare

Posted By david elosser

It's easy to add up the numbers, or at least argue about them. But here's the true cost of Obamacare- the human cost:

Welch Allyn, a company that manufactures medical diagnostic equipment will shrink their work force by 10% to pay for additional Obamacare costs.

Auto parts manufacturing company in Ohio known as Dana Holding Corp, says it must slash $24 million in the next six years to make up for increased U S health care expenses.

Stryker, one of the biggest medical device manufacturers in the world, is closing up shop in New York, and cutting about 1200 positions world wide.

Boston Scientific just announced it will be cutting at least 1200 jobs, and sending their business to... you guessed it... China.

Medical device maker Medtronic (are you starting to see a pattern here???) cut 500 jobs this past summer, and plans to cut another 500 by the end of next year.

And on and on and on...
Smith & Nephew - 770 layoffs
Abbott Labs - 700 layoffs
Covidien - 595 layoffs
Kinetic Concepts - 427 layoffs
St. Jude Medical - 300 layoffs
Hill Rom - 200 layoffs

Hostess may liquidate (that means "go out of business" for you liberals that spent the last years of your high school in a daze) if strikers don't go back to work today:

No Obama Bail-out for 18,500

Posted By david elosser

Maybe because the company is only 1/3 union?

With government as it's god

"Students at Terry Elementary School had been invited to attend an upcoming [stage] performance of [A Charlie Brown Christmas] at Agape Church...at least one parent objected to the field trip and contacted the Arkansas Society of Freethinkers [sic], a self-described community of atheists...'The problem is that it’s got religious content and it’s being performed in a religious venue and that doesn’t just blur the line between church and state religion — it oversteps it entirely,' attorney Anne Orsi told Arkansas Matters...the concerned parent did not want to be identified [coward!]...While everyone loves Charlie Brown, the religious content of the program is a problem, as is the trip to a church to see it."

No, can't have Christianity polluting the minds of our children in our beloved public schools!

And with abortion as its sacrament.

Posted By david elosser

We all know that parents and guardians get child tax deductions and credits. Raising a child is incredibly expensive. But what about the pregnant woman? Unless her medical bills are incredibly exorbitant, she gets no additional tax relief. But one state has decided to try to change that, giving the pregnant woman the ability to deduct her unborn child as a tax deduction or credit. It would give the parent one more year of tax relief to help pay for the raising of their child. The legislation has been introduced in the state of Michigan. Good idea, you say? It's compassionate, it's caring, right?

But No,no no no-no-no-noooo. The so-called compassionate libs are going into geo-sync orbit over this one! You see, we can't give a fetus a tax break, nooooo, that would be the same thing as banning abortion! No kidding! According to the NAGS, er, NOW organization wink "These bills would be a first step toward establishing fetal personhood and banning abortion,” said Mary Pollock, with Michigan NOW. 'They want fetal personhood and they want to put a fetus’ rights above a mother’s rights.'" (I always find it incredible that liberal animal rights activitists always put the rights of bugs, plants, and rodents above the rights of people, but the unborn living child gets no such privilege.!)

Okay libs, who said this?

[quote] "...The second possible mistake would be excessive interference into the economic life of the country and the absolute faith into the all-mightiness of the state.

There are no grounds to suggest that by putting the responsibility over to the state, one can achieve better results.

Unreasonable expansion of the budget deficit, accumulation of the national debt - are as destructive as an adventurous stock market game.

During the time of the Soviet Union the role of the state in economy was made absolute, which eventually lead to the total non-competitiveness of the economy. That lesson cost us very dearly. I am sure no one would want history to repeat itself..."

Okay who said that? Romney? Ryan? Gingrich? Reagan? Palin? Rush Limbaugh? Glen Beck? Sean Hannity? Richard Davis? grin

Barak-O-Clause is coming to town!

Posted By david elosser

At a toy factory today: "I’ve been keeping my own naughty-and-nice list for Washington," Obama told a crowd gathered on the factory floor of the Rodon Group facility, flanked by elaborate roller coasters and Ferris wheels built of Tinkertoys and K’Nex building toys. There will be some members of Congress who deserve toys this holiday season, he suggested, "and some who don’t."

(I swear you can't just make this stuff up!) grin
