Unemployed Party
Who here thinks we need to start an unemployed party and get unemployed and underemployed people around the country to run for office, both local and national?
The ones who win will start getting a pretty good salary. Maybe we need people who run for office because they need a job, rather than running for office so they can make more money at the jobs they already have.

Give Obama another 4 years and we all may qualify for this party.

Imagine what can be achieved with actual smart talented people?
Imagine if we had a smart talented President. I mean someone with real intelligence and knowledge of how the world works.

So, lets create a political part based entirely on one's current employment status?
:whatever:

Actually the DUmmy is on to a good idea. Just one small change we focus on making the democratic party the unemployed party. :lmao:
Imagine all the democrats stimulating the economy with their unemployment checks.

A great idea from the DUmp! Here is an example of the candidates you would get (this guy, by coincidence was in the TN Republican primary):

I am all for making Democrats and RINOs the Unemployed Party. Of course, three months later they would be calling themselves the "Unemployment Party" and peg anyone still calling them the "Unemployed Party" as Freepers and Tea Partiers.

Any time folks like Bobo the Hobo get snazzy new digs, it's only a very short time before the new place starts to look and smell like the old place.

Good point, GOBUCKS. I didn't think of that. :-)

Well, given some of the brain surgeons ya'll have in your party, like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Patty Murray, Babs Boxer, Shelia Jackson-Lee, Hank Johnson, and my soon-to-be-former (oh, how I love saying that) Congresstard Carol Che-Porter, you might just want to start there.
But don't just take my word for how stupid ya'll are:

And yes, the following woman is in fact a sitting member of Congress...

I see a major flaw in this so-called great idea of yours, DUmbass!
Once said candidate is elected, thus employed, won't ya have to kick 'em out of the "Unemployed/Underemployed" party? After all, they will be workin'!
Just askin'...............

And just what the heck would they effect. The whole reason this works in certain industries is that they walk out of their jobs en masse, thus stopping all production. What would they do to protest...invade an automobile plant and take over the assembly line? That would require greater effort than logging on to see if their unemployment check was deposited to their checking account. Ain't gonna happen.

Maybe they would refuse to collect their checks, thereby causing irreparable harm to "the One's" and Bella Pelosi's booming economy!
We could get so lucky!!!

How much would the dues be for the Unemployed Union be?

50% of the gross of their checks! That's what they think is fair for the rest of us!

Oh that's easy, they'd get jobs. :-)

And could you pay them in bong hits and bags of Cheetos?
