Its not just uneducated blue-collar manufacturing people that are getting s-canned now. The poverty train is making stops at Citigroup, American Express, JP Morgan - people who have never known what its like to be laid off are going to have a different view once they walk out with a cardboard box filled with their personal effects and no prospects on the horizon.
yup

If Texas was OZ and the Tinman and Scarecrow had a son....

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

From his epoch to our misery we go

Lets see how all the annointed ones feels in July of 2012 about thier choices they made in November 2008.

Obama will take credit for winning the war in Iraq.

Then Obama will widen the war in Afganistan to include Pakistan, and probably one or two other smaller vacation distinations that our troops have been dying to visit.

Obama will then reinstitute the draft, you all remember his statement that everyone should do a year or two of public service.

Just watch its coming.
