...are out there if people are just willing to get retrained to qualify for them. He even suggested that laid-off workers could enroll in community colleges (that's a two year degree) and they would be hired by companies when they get re-qualified. These are engineers and computer software people who already have four-degrees. Why has he waited until now to suggest this? He could have put programs in place at the beginning of his term and kept teachers working. Now the community colleges are over-crowded and under-funded, so people who apply will be turned away. Typical knee-jerk reaction by BushCo, the republicans and the neo-con business community that continues to blow blue thick smoke up everybody's asses!:wtf:

This turd Shrub keeps talking to hand-picked audiences to preach his failed neo-con supply-sided economic concepts. They have not worked. His administration uses smoke and mirrors to convince the average worker that the American dream can be theirs too. In the meantime, he allows jobs to flow out of the country. His wealthy pals and corporations get more tax breaks and no-bid contracts while the American economy spirals down out of control.:freak:
