So, Ailes pays you well to troll here. I'm happy for ya . . .
If you were a conservative, you'd still be grumbling about that, squawks.
What a slacker.
Why aren't you angry at the business leaders who aren't hiring right now? Why aren't you angry at creeps on Wall St. who created this huge road block in our economy by dealing in risky derivative swaps?
Wy do you need to be angry at honest people who want to, but are unable to obtain employment?
It's interesting that you confused the Heritage Foundation and the WSJ, Rush. Considering the WSJ is now owned by Daddy Murdoch, there really isn't much difference between them, is there? By the way, after the Royals let you go, how long was it that YOU were collecting unemployment, Rush?
Man, I would love to see you try to find an honest job, Rush. You haven't got a brain in your head, or a marketable skill beyond fomenting hostility and anger in people. What a life. What a way to make a living.
What a pig.
Gee Mr. Creosote, I could tell you a thing or two about trying to live on unemployment. Especially when it is around half of what you are used to earning. If you lost your job, I'll wager you couldn't live on unemployment but then you wouldn't need to now would you?
I wish I were a huge mega-billion dollar corporation so I could get some serious "entitlement".
And you need to go back to school...."your making" should be "YOU'RE making". It's a basic second grade concept. Learn it when you get there.
He was also fired from that job -- as well as his second radio gig in Pittsburgh in the early 70's.
I wonder if Limpballs thought unemployment was an "entitlement" and "welfare program" then . . .
You have no idea what the hell you're talking about 99% of the time here. I thought there was a glimmer of hope when you posted a halfway reasonable comment one day . . . but, you went right back to "teh stupid," thinking that posting "teh stupid," made you a conservative. Nope, not even close. Just an uninformed, blind follower of a bunch of overpaid faux conservative entertainers, many of whom have NO formal education to speak of at all.

"The former Republican president is blamed more than President Barack Obama for the budget deficit, unemployment and illegal immigration, according to a Bloomberg National Poll conducted July 9-12."
I like facts. This Bloomberg article in the link lays it out in black and white who Americans think is responsible for the mess this country is in.
Read it and weep, and stop spouting your rw BS.
And the Heritage Foundation and the rest of the liars can go suck 2 year old sun rottened eggs.
I guess that's what happens when the lizard-brains take over a political party.
BTW, how much do you pay into unemployment insurance MiniTru and Litwiz? Please be specific and show proof.
The fact that you are defending someone who has NO compassion for anyone at all by questioning the compassion of others is laughable.
Regarding unemployment benefits, I think they are justified and completely legit. Only thing I question is how long they should be paid. Year after year is too long. There must be a cut off time. And, as I recall, employees don't directly pay for unemployment insurance. Employers do. That is why I asked your two friends for proof.
Life: About 50 million babies killed in America
Liberty: Government take over of the banks, auto industry, health care, et. al.
Pursuit of happiness: Tax, tax, tax in an attempt to cover the unprecedented deficit spending by the Left. Tough to be happy when you are broke.
Liberty: The government hasn't taken over any industries. Another lie.
Pursuit of happiness: Bush took the country from record surpluses to record deficit in order to enrich his cronies. Another lie.
I'm an adult, and the only fairy tales I like are the ones meant for kids. I'm just as concerned about what happens to my tax money as anyone else, and I hate being lied to.
If it doesn't apply to mjbindy, that means he/she is a slacker who's probably on welfare the rest of us pay our hard-earned money into . . .
When businesses had something called "the Customer is always right?"
Really silly, uninformed, Beckian comment, sorry.
The term worker has been used in this country since the beginning of its' history, but now for some "unknown" reason, the term worker is associated with socialism. The most important thing to me before I retired was that I could be classified as a worker. There's zero shame in being called a worker.
I wonder how many times you've actually said, "It's almost time for me to go to work."
I figure you didn't say choose to say, "It's time for me to go to employee/associate, businessman."
Ignorance should be classified as a mental disease.
