difference between Obama and Osama is a little "BS"

Dear Fellow Business Owners:

As a Business owner who employs 30 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama will Probably be our next President,

and that my Taxes and Fees will go up in a BIG way.

To compensate for these increases I figure that my customers will have to see an increase in my fees to them of about 10%.

I will also have to lay off 6 of my employees. This really bothered me as I believe we are family here, and didn't know how to choose who will have to go.

So, this is what I did. I strolled through the parking lot and found 8 Obama bumper stickers on my employees cars. I have decided these folks will be the first to be laid off.

I can't think of another fair way to approach this problem.

If you have a better idea, let me know.

I am sending this letter to all Business owners that I know.

Sincerely,

Ward

JOOA Corp

here is another:

A man was dining out with a couple of friends at a mid-priced establishment, and their waiter was proudly wearing an Obama button. They received excellent service and the bill came to about $100.00, so a $20.00 tip would be appropiate.

He told the waiter that he provided great service and he was going to enforce the Obama plan to redistribute the wealth by giving the homeless guy outside his tip.

He said to the young guy," You understand, don't you, that since you are for Obama, even though you earned the money, this guy outside is in greater need than you since you have a job and all."

Then he went outside and handed the $20 bill to the homeless guy, who was also wearing a vote Obama button.

The down on his luck guy profusely thanked and blessed the man for a such generous sum and the man responded,

"It's is from the waiter standing at the window with his jaw dropped. So thank him, he earned the money for his excellent service, but I feel you need it more. So I am just demostrating the Obama plan in action."

Much to the already upset waiters dismay, the homeless guy waved the bill in the air, and thanked him repeatedly. Then the waiter stormed off away from the window.

All these Obama fans are all for the redistribution of the wealth as long as it's not theirs.

The wealth has been redistributed in a reverse robinhood fasion since Reagan. I guess you are not a big enough businessman to cheat on your taxes and bank overseas like the top feeders of the inverted pyramid economic sceme? The neo-facists liked Suddam Hussain when the CIA installed him in Iraq. Rumsfeld love him when our chemical company CEOs were selling him poison gas to fight Iranians. They really liked Osama Bin Laden when he was fighting the USSR! Those Neo-Nazis should bow and Worship Barak Hussain Obama!

Neither of these stories is true. What is your point?

Cute. Ever notice how BUllSHit comes in many forms and smells different to each nose? The difference of your example is that the homeless guy and the waiter are in the same boat and it ain't the same one as the guy who can afford the $100 dollar lunch. As for your employment theory -- had good jobs under Carter and Billy the hose monster - been laid off twice under two guys named Bush. Tell me about your business and what are your "widgets" and I will cite specific examples of how government spending found it's way into the stream of your particular corporation's revenue stream. Do business with teachers? Doctor's? Activist judges? Military personnel? Sheep farmer's in Montana? People unfortunate enough to be on AFDC and food stamps? Old retirees whose only income is Soc. Sec. No one is an island unless you are printing up counterfeit money. Thank God the founding father's only gave you one vote.

In reference to the jerk who is going to lay off his employees because they are supporting Obama. You sound like a slave owner who is punishing someone for what he/she thinks or has the the right to do. It is small minded people like you who help keep this country down and who are helping it go to hell in a hand basket. I hope you remember to be careful of the grave you dig for another because it may end up being your own. The same way most of your employees came through your door seeking employment-they can always find better employment elsewhere. You are not the last business on earth. I hope you end up in a lawsuit and go broke. We shall see then how many people stop by and give you a few dollars because you are homeless. You are such a jerk.

Difference between Obama and Osama is a little "BS." Does that mean that there is very little difference between a Cracker and a Redneck? I hope that isn't an offensive question. Whether he is the next President of the United States or not, he has earned everything he has in life and he hasn't gained it by stepping on the backs of others or abusing his positions unlike so many who have run for office before him. I don't care if he never steps foot inside the white house-he has given people of all nationalities hope and inspiration. Look around you fool-this country isn't owned by the white man anymore-it is owned by a great diverse group of people. Get over it honey, it's new day and there isn't a thing you can do about it!!!!!

Delicious, let me tell you a real story. It's about a guy who I contracted work to that restored and old historic building in Minnesota to be used as a B&B, convention, and reception center. This guy would have loved your rant. Just one problem. While he was pressuring me to get the job done because he had a wedding reception scheduled that was worth $25,000 to him, he also would pontificate regularly about government and taxes and how noone had the right to "pickpocket" the efforts of such a hard working man as himself. Also, fine, His right as an American. Just one more problem with his whole argument - the wedding was for a prominent PBS journalist who's funding came partially from the National Endowment for the Arts. So the Republican got his money from the socialist system but I guess that was OK. It was just the part where he had to pay some taxes on it that he did'nt like. I'm glad he only had one vote also.

Delicious you are wuss. I'm sure me and 50,000,000 other consumers would love to know where you are doing business and what is the name of it. Maybe the other 22 employees who didn't have the nerve to put an Obama sticker on their car would also like to know what the woman they work for is really like. If you you can man up with some truth here, I'd just like to say - nice fairy tale mom and dad.
