WTF? Unemployment Benefits PROMOTE Unemployment??!!

Posted on March 11, 2010 by admin

So, let me get this straight. It’s not the fact that there are no jobs out there. It’s that I’m somehow not motivated enough because I’m being coddled and spoiled with my incredibly generous unemployment benefits package.

Obama is like a parent who’s afraid to discipline his own kids

Posted on March 5, 2010 by admin

Obama reminds me of the kind of parent that lets their kid(s) terrorize others, running through the aisles at Wal Mart and Target, pulling merchandise off the shelves, etc, while the parent pretends not to know what’s going on – and is actually too frightened to punish anyone for bad behavior.
