LOL, I was just going to start the thread, I was trying to think of a good title though, but this title is fine.
I thought you were worthy of recognition, with your name on the marquee.
Anyway, before anything else, question.
Are you guys threatened with more bad weather?
They're calling for a Nor'easter on Wed. the shore area is supposed to get high winds and rain, we might get snow, but it shouldn't be blizzard type conditions like we usually get with Nor'easters.

Today is only a primary. Winner must face the real incumbent, 16 Trillion.
My mom and dad went to vote at their rural polling station (volunteer firefighting shed) and it's never busy, she said they had to wait 35 minutes and they were all old white people :lmao: she is one of them :lmao: guess they are all voting for Romney then :hyper:
Damn, and I wanted my name on the marquee as well. :(
Oh well. You KNOW I'll be helping out with this, Bally. With bells on. :yahoo:
Man, you guys must really like me. :shucks:

I cancelled out my Republican husband's vote in Florida
with my Obama vote. No matter what happens, I am very happy about that.
Take THAT Mittens. I am WOMAN with a mind of MY OWN, unlike you, QUEEN Ann.
My now-5-year-old restated her desire that I vote for Mitt Romney this morning. :yahoo: :-) O-) But, she didn't want to come into the polling place with me--she was happy to sit out in the car and wait.

A woman with a mind of your own huh? Trying being a conservative woman when most women lean at least moderate left(because of their inability to focus on anything but their emotional natures)and tell me what it is like to TRULY be a woman with a mind of your own. It's never been my partners who challenged my view and made me vote in a certain way. It's always bitchy overbearing FEMALE acquaintances who thought it was their duty to preach to me about how the 'war on women' was in full effect. I see Hockeymom is another one who doesn't realize it's women like her that make it difficult for other women to stand on their own with their own opinions. No worries though dumbass. Not only did I vote Mitt, but so did my ex, my boyfriend, my aunt, my uncle, my brothers, my best friend, several other friends in Florida, etc etc etc... :wink:
romney with 65% in florida with 1% in. Come on, Florida!!
Can't get to DU right now. Anyone know how they are handling Indiana & Florida results?
At least she was smart enough to marry someone that wasn't too lazy to work: a republican.
And to all the lurking DUmmies, I'm still available for all of your fictional spirit-guiding needs.

I know it's early and will change but OH has Romney up by 60% so far.

CUYAHOGA: Obama gets 38% of his 2008 total through EV, Romney at 36% of McCain final tally. This will be close
Polls will be closing in the FL panhandle soon and the rest of the central time zone.

I'm guessing US elections tend to look red starting off then turn blue?
Like the world over liberal people tend to live in large cities and other areas of high density while RW nut jobs tend to live in more sparely populated states, towns and cities. Logically this to me means that the more sparely populated districts will have their votes counted and shown first (just by the nature of it being easier to do so). Therefore the electoral map is likely to look ominously red to begin with but turn progressively blue as the larger liberal populations are slowly counted and displayed. Is this about right?

The EV numbers in OH are almost running at exact margin percentages of total vote in 2008. Favorable to Romney b/c they cut into EV this yr

He said people like free stuff and will vote for the party that gives free stuff away.
Between stupid women and this, I'm starting to agree with your tipping point. As I said, this will decide your earlier theory. If so, it's a sad time for this country. Short of recognizing some sort of restriction on people recieving a freebie from voting or who does not pay income tax from voting, I can't see any other way to sway away from this stupidity.

NBC News projects Republicans retain control of the House.
Well jtyangel... restricting free stuff will get forced on the USA sooner or later. I'll bet sooner. We are way to much in debt. I figure in about 4 or 6 years taxes are gonna have to go up on everybody and free stuff will go down.
Speaking of changes, my ex just said a new part of their insurance plan is to charge spouses 50 bucks a pay period if they have access to health insurance at their work too...Ain't that grand?
If I had my wife on mine and she had access at her work my company would charge me $40 a paycheck. Luckily she has really good insurance and we are on hers.
Fun little changes from obamacare..ain't that grand?
With MI, WI and PA going blue, I don't see Romney winning. 240 EV tops.
Just to let those voting for the free money, it will run out before obama finishes his term.

But, if Romney pulls out Ohio and Florida, . . .
Yeah, we all get to pay the consequences for these losers too. Our country deserves to collapse. I guess our hope is Texas does something responsible to preserve themselves and accepts us conservatives. :rofl:

That right there is what it's going to take.
Well, with Romney winning the popular vote over Barack Milhous, one wonders how the primitives feel about the electoral college now.
Too bad CA hasn't gone into that EV goes to winner of national popular vote deal
Well, not yet.
The way that works is once enough states sign on to the law to bring their combined total up to half or better of the outstanding EVs, the law goes into effect. There is something like 9 states signed up so far.
I think that whole idea might backfire on liberals that want it. There are thousands of conservatives in states like NY, Illinois, Massholistan, and California that don't vote simply because their votes don't matter.
If that were changed, then I think some blue states would start seeing much higher turnout of conservatives.
Well unfortunately the White house is still in Nobamas hands but for now it is only for another four years.
Well, I know this is of scant comfort to many here, but it might be some comfort.
Omaha Steve's hopes appear dashed.....again.
The big guy thought for sure the Democrat running for Congress in Omaha, and Bob Kerrey would make it.
He was positive. Absolutely certain.
Nebraska remained true to its roots, and got even redder today.
There's only 60% of the votes in, but Deborah Fischer (R) pounded Kerrey (D) in what appears to be a landslide.
Too bad for the primitives; they found the presence of the now-retiring (D) from Nebraska irksome, but now they got to deal with a bigger burr under their saddle.
Even though I am from Iowa I take comfort in that bit of news and the fact all of Iowa's Republicans are still in office.
Well, with 77% of the vote in now, it's a red landslide out here.
I really expected that this night was going to turn out differently. I guess that we really did pass the point of no return.
Sad but true.
You forget the Supreme Court. Scalia and Thomas are no spring chickens.

I don't think we have reached the point of no return.
We didn't gain any ground, but at the same time neither did they.
It's a stalemate.
Stalemates by their very nature are short-lived, one thing or the other thing giving in.
I suspect Barack Milhous, the Democrats, the liberals, and the primitives have their work cut out for them, trying to keep it at a stalemate, because if it tips, it's not going to tip their way.
Elections are not the only thing that changes the course of America; there's all sorts of economic, social, and cultural influences that change America too.
And we now have a seriously-weakened president, given the narrowness of his win.
Too bad for the primitives.
Okay now, everybody, go into a normal and usual and healthy funk for the next few days because decent and civilized people lost today--take a little vacation, rest up, get mellow--and then come back restored and refreshed to the DUmpster, and give Hell to the primitives.

Lets add 20 million illegal aliens to the voter roles, which obama will try to do, by legalizing them under the guise of adding them to the tax rolls. Once that happens, and they qualify for free handouts, who do you think that they'll vote for? They'll vote just like the people voted tonight, handouts instead of jobs.
Tonight's victory wasn't a victory for obama. It was a victory for the democrat party. The democrat party could have put a "To be determined later" in the slot against Romney and still won. The entitled class voted for the party, not the person.
Well, I'm headed to bed.
franksolich'll be back tomorrow, to renew taunting the primitives.
In the meantime, the primitives may kiss franksolich's ass.
Okay, folks.
Well, it didn't turn out the way we wished it would.
But remember, it's an offense against God to lose hope.
We held what we had, while the ground underneath the other side is crumbling.
No mandate, and the piper's coming for his pay, like, real soon.
I suggest we be sure the right people pay the piper; the ones who hired him, not us.
I dunno anything about financial strategies, but I suggest others with meaningful assets figure out ways and means of legally putting those resources out of reach of the kleptomaniac Democrats. After all, rich Democrats since Joseph P. Kennedy have done it since the 1940s, and so surely the primitives would find no fault with decent and civilized people doing it too.
As for other things.
It's wholly natural, and probably healthy, to grieve after some sort of loss. In this case, it's just best to go away for a little while--half a day, a couple of days, a couple of weeks, whatever--and allow those feelings of loss to work their way through, and out, of one's system.
conservativecave and the DUmpser will still be here, when you come back. It's okay.
If one wants to yell and scream, yell and scream at franksolich; I can take it.
However, since yelling-and-screaming when simply written down doesn't seem to work for hearing people--they want to hear talk, not read words--if one wants, and if one's a long-time member here, I'm willing to telephone you any time (I have the whole rest of this week off work), to "listen." It might be freakish, talking to a deaf person, but it's manageable.
Just send a personal message; I'm more than up to "listening."
But most of all, remember: it's an offense against God to lose hope.
Then I will have to be offensive to God.
This election was our last hope to stop the fundamental transformation of our country. This was our last chance to end 0bamacare.
So now what do we get? 4 more years of high unemployment, stagnant wages, tax increase, higher food prices, energy prices that will necessarily skyrocket, and the rich will taxed until they either stop producing or leave the country. The worst part is, we have failed our military they have a commander in chief who cares nothing for them unless he can get a photo op. If they are under fire he can't be bothered and has to go to bed to rest up for a fundraiser.
RIP America you had a good run you survived all kinds of foreign enemies over your 200+ year history but in the end a cancer from within slowly killed you.

I'd like to add a note to the entitled class. The money will run out before obama's term ends. Expect it.

First off. you didn't give it to me. You gave it yo skimmer on my behalf.
Secondly. Every dirty trick that I know, I learned from a democrat.
Lastly. My star is expiring. Could you donate to get me a new one?
I just can't believe we have 50% of Americans and they are blood sucking ticks. They won't work for themselves and will only count on other peoples money.
Oh, it'll run out soon.
Real soon.
Too bad for the primitives.
Unfortunately, she didn't bother hanging around very long.
Something must've scared her away.
But I dunno; she's a registered nurse, right, and sees such things all the time, right?
BTW, our side will never lay down, we'll continue to fight for what we believe in. Can't wait to see who they blame the next election when unemployment is even higher, Obamacare effects start to show and people won't get the care they're used to, gas prices continue to go sky high as do food prices and everything else. You voted for it so don't bitch about it.
Yep, it's pretty much a house of cards. A reminder to everyone that DC can't spend money that congress doesn't approve. Let's keep those critters' balls to the walls. I want to see deep and severe cuts to entitlements and then sit back and watch the disillusionment for the next 4 years.
Schade you know they won't. Sequestration is most likely for DOD in January. It will be DOD that gets hit--the military. They will never cut the entitlements.They will make more moochers and weaken our national defenses at the same time. God help us all. We are practically giving our country to the Muzzies.
I'm going to take some time to review how I want to deal with this, but I'm not going to deny the reality. The Dems give money away, and they'll keep winning national elections.
Today is not the day to start, too much the day after and we need to sit back and breath a while. But I wouldn't mind exploring ways with how to minimize the damage to us personally. Those who are stupid enough to vote for these idiots thinking it'll go on forever, I don't really care what happens to them. I do care what happens to my fellow conservatives.
These are whores and they have a sugar daddy.

CCers, you know I love each and every one of you. What I say now won't be pleasant.
I'm not upset, I'm not angry, I'm very much at peace with myself right now. One reason is because I had a feeling we had crossed over the line where the moochers vote themselves money. Well, we're there,
In 4 years, there's going to be even more moochers than their are now. A lot more. We lost the Latino vote, we lost the women vote, and unless you want the Republican party to make a whole lot of concessions to these groups, like amnesty and becoming pro-choice and start giving them money, they're going to stay put with the group that's giving them freebies. That's what politics has become now; giving away money to get voters. Unemployment won't matter, gas prices won't matter, inflation won't matter. It didn't this time. These are whores and they have a sugar daddy. Eventually the well will run dry, but what do the Dem pols care? They'll be dead and gone by then and the country will be in ruins.

The cards fall down. But you already knew that.
I don't know that they'll fall in our lifetime or in the lifetime of our kids or their kids or longer still, but the road we're on will lead to the cards falling.
What I don't see are people stopping who vote themselves money. They aren't thinking of the future, they're thinking of the here and now and that's as far as they'll ever think. We're smarter than that, and we still have some time on our side.

Hey, you're bursting my bubble. :p
Of its any consolation frank I've delayed doing it for my son but may consider it as well now. Think to what someone else said about taking back what is ours. My son has more right to claim tha pot then any of the ones you mentioned. His father and forefathers contributed into it and still do and unlike aforementioned lardasses he was born with a disability and don't create one for himself.
Saw your post.ha ha ha ha ha... :lmao:
I tried to help you in good faith,because that is my belief.
You stole money from me.
My conscience is wrestling with it because my motives wouldn't be pure; it wouldn't be for my survival, but rather just to help deplete the funds faster so the "disabled" primitives would get less.
I just cancelled my United Way weekly donation. Going to only help St Jude now. All that money is going to them.
I'm not all that hot about St Jude's.
A few years ago, USPSA organized a charity match in Memphis with the proceeds going to St Jude. We had over 100 revolver shooters that showed up. We had the top shooters from all over the United States, including Jerry Miculek and myself :-).
We raised several thousand dollars for St Jude's. When they found out what we did to raise the money, they didn't want it.
You know, I brought this up before the election.
As most here know, franksolich has some, uh, significant hindrances to working for a living.
One major birth defect, two developmental defects, and one substantial bodily injury and loss.
On paper, I can't work.
That's what it says, on paper; franksolich is deaf, speech-impaired, not very bright, and has sustained major bone breakage and loss. Fortunately, other than the absence of two ears, all these other impairments are internal, not easily seen, and so at first impression I look average.
On paper, I can't work. There's a whole series of physicians, otolaryntologists, surgeons, physical therapists, audiologists, speech pathologists, orthopaedic physicians, psychologists, signatures on documents saying franksolich is unemployable; he's unable to work.
Never mind that I've worked since I was 14 years old; that's in real life, and we're talking official papers here.
It's sort of like when I was wandering around the socialist paradises of the workers and peasants for a couple of years during the mid-1990s, and paid my way through by.....teaching English.
Yeah, a deaf person teaching English. On paper it can't be done; it's impossible; it's like a blind person being an art critic or a mute person being a telephone receptionist.
So, anyway.
According to a statement I've gotten about every other year from the Social Security Administration, if I were disabled, I could sit on my ass and collect $1433 a month, plus all the free medical care, the food stamps, the rental assistance, that comes with it.
I've never checked; I'm not sure how this works, because I understand, sort of, that there's social security disability and SSDI, whatever that acronym means, two different things.
The SSDI is to be bankrupt in a year and a half; maybe I should shoot for that one.
Why would I bother shooting for it? I'm tired of all these loafers on the social security disability gravy train, and if franksolich got a ticket himself, it'd deplete that fund all the faster, depriving the Odin2005 primitive, the Las Vegas Leviathan, the HaweyeX primitive, and other primitives who've gotten a free ride far too long; the money'd run out faster.
After the money runs out, franksolich would, as he always has, still manage to survive.
The primitive freeloaders, probably not; to survive, they need spoon-fed, like a baby.
Now with Barack Milhous' re-election, I wonder if I should look into this more. I've been told in the past by attorneys and physicians who know such things, that I'd probably get aboard the gravy train the first time, none of this denial-and-appeal stuff. They've wondered why I've never done it before, but I have qualms about it.
My conscience is wrestling with it because my motives wouldn't be pure; it wouldn't be for my survival, but rather just to help deplete the funds faster so the "disabled" primitives would get less.
well that's weird. I will ask them about it, I know some high ups there.

You've fed the cow Frank, now milk her......and kill the fatted calf while you're at it.
I guess that I should submit a service-related disability claim then, based on my back.
If that means some mooch who could work but won't gets less, then so be it.
I'd go for it Frank. Anything you get is less in a DUmmies pocket.

I'm not upset, I'm not angry, I'm very much at peace with myself right now. One reason is because I had a feeling we had crossed over the line where the moochers vote themselves money. Well, we're there,
In 4 years, there's going to be even more moochers than their are now. A lot more. We lost the Latino vote, we lost the women vote, and unless you want the Republican party to make a whole lot of concessions to these groups, like amnesty and becoming pro-choice and start giving them money, they're going to stay put with the group that's giving them freebies. That's what politics has become now; giving away money to get voters. Unemployment won't matter, gas prices won't matter, inflation won't matter. It didn't this time. These are whores and they have a sugar daddy. Eventually the well will run dry, but what do the Dem pols care? They'll be dead and gone by then and the country will be in ruins.
I'm going to take some time to review how I want to deal with this, but I'm not going to deny the reality. The Dems give money away, and they'll keep winning national elections.
Today is not the day to start, too much the day after and we need to sit back and breath a while. But I wouldn't mind exploring ways with how to minimize the damage to us personally. Those who are stupid enough to vote for these idiots thinking freebies will go on forever, I don't really care what happens to them. I do care what happens to my fellow conservatives.

Unfortunately, she didn't bother hanging around very long.Well, she's a pumped-up steroid freak lesbo nut.
Something must've scared her away.
But I dunno; she's a registered nurse, right, and sees such things all the time, right?
Really, guys? At what point do we make their point of having more people taking from the government just because they can? How much are you willing to take from me and mine at gunpoint to make someone else suffer (which you know damned good and well they won't, their entitlement will never go down)?
However I do promise that whatever I decide to do won't be broadcast here. I will silently go about doing what I need to do just like I do now.
I view it as taking back what should have never been taken from me in the first place.
That's exactly the way it should be done.
By the way, on an unrelated--just a social matter--are you "up" to trying to talk with me on the telephone any time soon?
If so, at your own convenience, as I'm not doing anything anyway the next several days.
Hmmmm.
The stock market's skidding.
One wonders what Barack Milhous is going to do about that.
Nationalize it. He has transmitted to Vladimir that he has much more flexibility, now that his election is over.
It's starting already, the stock market is down, the dollar is dropping and taxes will be going up. So what will the rich do? will they take their money and do what the rich French are doing and moving their money somewhere else? what happens if the rich do that here?
We're ****ed.
With less investment here, fewer jobs.
More jobs elsewhere in the world (wherever the money's moved to), but not here.
So since the rich have the ability to move their wealth and they will, then less money will come in, so how does the Government pay out all these freebies to people?

Well, she's a pumped-up steroid freak lesbo nut.
She has spent a lot of time in the DUmp's loony bin, cyberscreaming about her various mental illnesses.
If she actually works as a nurse, I pity her patients.
They don't.
For a short time, they can try to create money by fiat, but that very quickly leads to hyperinflation, and hyperinflation very quickly leads to civil unrest and disorder.
I think they're going to try anyway.
This is one of the main reasons I suspect Barack Milhous, the Democrats, the liberals, and the primitives, are suddenly on unstable ground. They're going to frantically try to control something, but the forces of economics are more powerful than people and policies, and it's going to get out of control.
The problem with this is the following: A lot of good people are going to be caught up in the whirlwind. Yeah, the Dems can't control it; but no one really can. So, those caught in the tornado are seriously hurt.
You're right. It's something I saw with my own eyes, in the socialist paradises of the workers and peasants.
However, I did notice that smart decent and civilized people got by, and some even flourished.
The losers didn't. Hyperinflation comes, the primitives are sunk.
Obama fell about 2 million short of Bush's 2004 total.
Obama will turn the US into an entitlement state
The U.S. was an entitlement state long before Obama. He only accelerated the process. However, in doing so, he also accelerated the pace of cities and municipalities acknowledging the budget shortfalls they had been hiding for decades. Now they are falling like dominoes and he is powerless to stop it. He is also powerless to stop governors like Scott Walker from enacting reforms that bring real prosperity. The media will not be able to hide this forever. It is too close to home or coming soon to a city near you.
The Democrats will have a permanent majority
Sure, they will. Some of us seem to have forgotten the wave of correction in November of 2010. Think of the disgust after four more years of unwillingness to get government out of the way of the private sector and blaming Bush for businesses sitting on their cash. The Democrats will have to move forward after Obama and that will be a tough sell after nearly a decade of stagnation.
ObamaCare will fundamentally change the country
Maybe at first, but Americans are already finding ways around it. The M.D. VIP program offers individuals unfettered access to a network of doctors with limited numbers of patients for around $1500/year. That is certainly less than the cost of ObamaCare. I believe we will see a bifurcated healthcare system that still offers choice, because the best doctors prefer to work in programs like M.D. VIP. And the states that refuse to implement the ObamaCare Medicaid provisions will be where the businesses go. The intransigent states like California, Illinois, and New York will continue to bleed companies and middle-class voters, leaving only the very rich and people who are addicted to entitlements. Ultimately, the law will be chipped away or ignored because it is poorly written.
What Have They Really Won?
The Democrats will have to move forward after Obama and that will be a tough sell after nearly a decade of stagnation.
Granted i am looking at this through jaded eyes but I have been putting lots of dollars, around $35K+/year for the last twenty years and before that about 20-25K in just federal income and FICA. Except for the military shared benefit, I get nothing, ZERO. As of now, I am looking to get some, any of that back. I won't see any SS and medicare will be long gone replaced with a pain pill for old white guys. I'm certainly leaning toward milking the system. Any kind of payback will be better than nothing which is what I am looking at getting now.
What last night proved to me is that we passed the tipping point. The system is coming down, the moochers and looters are going to do this. The Question is why would I not try to get a little something back and speed the crash. I'll be OK but the looters and moochers will be hurting then.
One hopes the sparkling old dude and the kpete primitive see their taxes go up; they voted for him after all.
Obama got 10 million less votes then he did 4 years ago.
But how the hell did Romney get fewer votes than McCain?
I saw that, and wondered myself; I'd been under the impression, apparently mistakenly, that Romney was doing better than McCain.
But how the hell did Romney get fewer votes than McCain?
Or, just more people saying "Romney wasn't my choice in the Primary / is a RINO / is a Mormon / is a Democrat in disguise / is Obama after a Clorox bath" than were willing to admit it publicly.
After all, there were many saying quite loudly that they would stay home Election Day for exactly those reasons...
But how the hell did Romney get fewer votes than McCain?
It looks like about 12 million less people voted.And it begins.
And Uh Oh:

Boeing Announces Big Layoffs in Defense Division
And it begins.
The first of the year is when most companies start cutting hours and personnel. The new year is not going to be a good one for Obama.
And it begins.

The bad part's going to start circa mid-December.From my experience, it usually starts to happen right before Christmas.
This isn't going to be a merry Christmas for many, and I hope to God the brunt of them are those who voted for Barack Milhous.
I bet a lot of Boeing employees voted Obama. Bye bye union man.
Funny how they didn't know this Monday.
200 k people laid at Boeing. But what do you care. Your idol was reelected. Don't care about the debt, unemployment vile
How incredibly unethical. Boeing announced layoffs today. Made back room deal with Obama not to annouce layoffs until after election.
Boeing cutting 30% Yay!! Obama Won!! OBAMA WON !!!! What's this? A Pink Slip?
And it begins.
The first of the year is when most companies start cutting hours and personnel. The new year is not going to be a good one for Obama.
29 hour a week employment: The new normal.Trying to live on 32 is hard enough.
They're not allowed to bitch though, they voted for it.Of course they'll complain.
Of course they'll complain.
It's all entirely the fault of George W. Bush.
I guarantee, without any reservation, they will still be saying that in 2016, no matter how much more the muslim screws the country.
And all the serious, professional news media outlets will agree.
Welch Allyn
Welch Allyn, a company that manufactures medical diagnostic equipment in central New York, announced in September that they would be laying off 275 employees, or roughly 10% of their workforce over the next three years. One of the major reasons discussed for the layoffs was a proactive response to the Medical Device Tax mandated by the new healthcare law.
Dana Holding Corp.
As recently as a week ago, a global auto parts manufacturing company in Ohio known as Dana Holding Corp., warned their employees of potential layoffs, citing "$24 million over the next six years in additional U.S. health care expenses". After laying off several white collar staffers, company insiders have hinted at more to come. The company will have to cover the additional $24 million cost somehow, which will likely equate to numerous cuts in their current workforce of 25,500 worldwide.
Stryker
One of the biggest medical device manufacturers in the world, Stryker will close their facility in Orchard Park, New York, eliminating 96 jobs in December. Worse, they plan on countering the medical device tax in Obamacare by slashing 5% of their global workforce - an estimated 1,170 positions.
Boston Scientific
In October of 2009, Boston Scientific CEO Ray Elliott, warned that proposed taxes in the health care reform bill could "lead to significant job losses" for his company. Nearly two years later, Elliott announced that the company would be cutting anywhere between 1,200 and 1,400 jobs, while simultaneously shifting investments and workers overseas - to China.
Medtronic
In March of 2010, medical device maker Medtronic warned that Obamacare taxes could result in a reduction of precisely 1,000 jobs. That plan became reality when the company cut 500 positions over the summer, with another 500 set for the end of 2013.
Others
A short list of other companies facing future layoffs at the hands of Obamacare:
Smith & Nephew - 770 layoffs
Abbott Labs - 700 layoffs
Covidien - 595 layoffs
Kinetic Concepts - 427 layoffs
St. Jude Medical - 300 layoffs
Hill Rom - 200 layoffs
Darden Restaurants
According to the Orlando Sentinel, Darden Restaurants, a casual dining chain best known for their Red Lobster, Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse restaurants, is "experimenting with limiting the hours of some of its workers to avoid health care requirements under the Affordable Care Act when they take effect in 2014".
JANCOA Janitorial Services
The CEO of JANCOA, Mary Miller, testified to Congress that Obamacare was a "dream killer", adding that one option she had to consider "is reducing the majority of my team members to part-time employment in order to reduce the amount that I will be penalized."
Kroger
The American retailer in Cincinnati, Ohio recently was reported to be planning a significant slashing of their hourly workers.
Summary
This is by no means, meant to be an exhaustive list. But it is meant to provide examples of real companies, real jobs, and real names, soon to be added to the growing list of employment casualties provided by the inevitable implementation of Obamacare.
Last night, America voted for four more years of President Obama and his destructive economic and health care policies. By extension, America last night voted their approval of the aforementioned layoffs and overall work reduction.
Now we must accept the inevitable. Welcome to mourning in America.
Haven't posted much today, but I too hoped it was a horrible nightmare. It....isn't. America may be in mourning, , but we can still do two things at once, so we should FIGHT! We need GRIDLOCK. As much as we can get. When Obama tries to make his USSC pick, stonewall it. Block it as the Dims did when he tried to make his. With this choice yesterday night, we now know what we have to do. Play hardball, hit below the belt, and NEVER give in. Whatever it takes to kill liberalism. Period. I have been inspired, and my fingers are on a roll. Enough is enough. He may be our POTUS, but he can't, and WON'T control everything!
I don't know about all of you, but if I get a call to fight, I do what I can. That's exactly what I'm going to do.
*stands defiantly against any, and all Obamabot/Demorat*
The U.S. House election, 1938 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1938 which occurred in the middle of President Franklin Roosevelt's second term. Roosevelt's Democratic Party lost a net of 72 seats to the Republican Party, who also picked up seats from minor Progressive and Farmer-Labor Parties.
The U.S. House election, 1950 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1950 which occurred in the middle of President Harry Truman's second term.
As the Korean War began and Truman's personal popularity plummeted for a second time during his presidency, his Democratic Party lost a net 28 seats to the Republican Party. This was the first election since 1908 where no third parties acquired any seats in the House.
The U.S. House election, 1958 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1958 which occurred in the middle of Dwight Eisenhower's second term.
The economy was suffering the Recession of 1958, which Democrats blamed on Eisenhower. The President's Republican Party lost 48 seats in this midterm election, increasing the Democratic Party's majority to a commanding level. Another factor which may have contributed to the Democratic gains include public consternation over the launch of Sputnik and Cold War politics.
The U.S. House election, 1966 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1966 which occurred in the middle of President Lyndon Johnson's second term. As the Vietnam War continued to escalate and race riots exploded in cities across the country, Johnson's popularity had fallen, and the opposition Republican Party was able to gain a net of 47 seats from Johnson's Democratic Party, which nonetheless maintained a clear majority in the House.
The U.S. House election, 1974 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1974 that occurred in the wake of the Watergate scandal, which had forced President Richard M. Nixon to resign in favor of Gerald Ford. This scandal allowed the Democratic Party to make large gains in the House election, taking 49 seats from the Republican Party and increasing their majority above the two-thirds mark.
The United States House of Representatives election, 1986 was held on November 4, 1986, in the middle of President Ronald Reagan's second term in office. As in most midterm elections, the President's party—in this case, the Republican Party — lost seats, with the Democratic Party gaining a net of five seats and cementing its majority. These results were not as dramatic as those in the Senate, where the Republicans lost control of the chamber to the Democrats.
The U.S. House elections in 1998 were part of the midterm elections held during President Bill Clinton's second term. They were a major disappointment to the Republican Party, which was expecting to gain seats due to the embarrassment Clinton suffered during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and the "six-year itch" effect observed in most second-term midterm elections. Instead, the GOP lost five seats to the Democratic Party, but retained a narrow majority in the House.
The 2006 United States House of Representatives elections were held on November 7, 2006.....Democrats gained 31 seats in the House, enough to take control, and Republicans became the minority party after 12 years of control. In addition, two seats went to December runoffs, and one seat was still unresolved at the opening of the new Congress. In one Louisiana runoff, a Democratic incumbent defeated a Democratic challenger. In a Texas runoff, a Democratic challenger defeated a Republican incumbent. The Republican candidate in the Florida 13th was eventually certified as the winner, and was seated by the House pending judicial and congressional investigation into voting machine irregularities.
I've been thinking that maybe there is a silver lining in the cloud after all. If Romney were to have won and even though we know he would have tried to fix things, the fix may not have come along in time and the whole thing ends up crashing giving the GOP the blame. So now instead we have 0bama in office and when it comes crashing down he will be at the helm and he will be blamed by all sane decent folks including some of those who were fooled into voting 0bama. Then that will leave the GOP with the task of rebuilding and maybe just maybe we can rebuild this country again and weaken the left for at 20 years.
Or maybe it's just wishful thinking.
That crossed my mind, too. The thing is, Obama will still blame Bush.
It appears 1998 was an anomaly; 2014 ain't going to be any 1998.
IIRC Clinton got his rotten mid-term in his first term, in 1994, and later congressional elections confirmed. Only started slipping the other way during the run-up to the failed impeachment (which came right after the 1998 midterms) and Newt's resignation (at the time, I was saying "don't impeach unless you know you can convict, and you won't with that Senate").

I looked for the tape and I can't find it, but Rush played a clip of Art Laffer and he said this was the election to lose, basically he said the economy is going to be horrible.
