" In Honor Of Al Franken's Stealing A Senate Seat, Today I Fired 2 Dems...

[Captain Lance Bass]

...who were my suppliers, I am switching to others, I don't need them.

If cap & trade goes through, I will lay off 10 dem employees & hire others in their place who aren't part of the useful idiots... I have 20, most of the dem UI's aren't that great anyhow...


I hope every con who can will do the same...


Put them out of a job in a market that's near impossible to find one! It will possibly make them grow... "

1. What does he mean suppliers...? Suppliers are usually other companies...

You don't fire them you look elsewhere.

Probably a lying lunatic.

[Captain Lance Bass]

2. I think he means he cut them off as vendors becuase they are Dem owned n/t

[Flabbergasted]

4. Somehow I don't buy that. He is either exaggerating or lying.

Yes I could be wrong and I frequently am.

[Orsino]

35. Masturbatory wingnut fantasy...

...as with the rest of Hannity's site. This particular loon might as well have told us what he'll do when cosmic rays give him the power of flight.

'Cause this nonsense is about power.

[tsuki]

47. Tradesmen call their vendors "suppliers." They pick up their

"supplies" at the "supply house."

As to "firing" half his employees, ten persons, that is going to be quite a jump in his SUI. If ten employees start collecting unemployment, his rate could go from a low of .32% to 3.9%. That is from $.32 per hundred to $3.90. That doesn't sound like much, but it all adds up.

[Captain Lance Bass]

3. he also threatens to " lay off 10 dem employees " n/t

[Merlot]

6. ya think HR might have something to say about that?

or maybe those 10 laid off dem employees will go out and hire 10 dem lawyers - or one good one.

This guys living in dreamworld, and this is his basement fantasy.

[RoadRage]

62. This guy is a total BSer..

I puruse the Hannity Boards weekly.. (easier to read then the Freeper Board, but the same tone & attitude) when I want to figure out how the GOP freaks are spinning things. This guy has been going on for weeks about it...

Frankly if he's paying more to use different suppliers that aren't democrat - then let him make less profit. Idiot.

[LLStarks]

5. I saw this thread a few days ago and it made me sick to my stomach... nt

[Thrill]

7. I doubt anyone who talks as childish as that is in a position to make any moves like that

.

[LLStarks]

8. It's one thing to not give people business, but to fire someone due to ideological differences...

It's just wrong.

[depakid]

9. More often than not, tough talk on the web translates into punks IRL

[rucky]

15. wanna bet?

[Downtown Hound]

10. Fire his suppliers? LOL.

Sir, you are free to buy your supplies from whomever you wish. But if you fire somebody who works for you on the grounds of what their politics are, then I smell a nice big, fat lawsuit coming your way.

[annabanana]

13. I don't think so. The only legal categories that you can't get fired for

are race, age, religion.

[snake in the grass]

11. I'll be totally honest...

...if I have to choose for hire between two people with the same qualifications, one a Democrat and the other a Republican, the Democrat is going to get the job. These people need to feel the fucking over they made possible and I have little to no sympathy for them.

I'm so ashamed!

[PassingFair]

41. I wouldn't even ASK such a question! We all want the person who's best for the job.

Now, if they were prone to shooting their
mouths off, that would be problematic.

[mkultra]

54. i dont rent to rabid repubs and i dont use them for service

If i meet someone briefly and i can quickly tell that they are rebid then i wont rent to them to use them. I just don't want to listen to their bullshit.

[uponit7771]

12. People are even more blatant when it comes to race, gender or gender preference than this guy

...and could care less if they did something illegal if they're working for a large company cause it's not their money that will be taken during a lawsuit it'll be the companies money.

I know one too many freeperish VP's that listen to Limbaugh when it comes to politics because they don't have too many original thoughts

[rucky]

14. I'm sure this attitude has nothing to do with our economic downturn.

Nothing at all. Keep moving.

[NoPasaran]

16. Another meth head heard from

[tularetom]

17. He's delusional

He's posting this from his mother's basement where he sits in his underwear 16 hours a day alternating between posting shit like this and typing with one hand as he hits all the free porn sites.

[jeanmarc]

19. nailed it (nt)

[tularetom]

18. dupe delete

[YOY]

20. I doubt this ass-clown manages or owns jack.

PArt of the Republican delusion that they are magically knowledgable on all things economic and business because of party affiliation. Most of them can't see the forest for the trees.

You don't fire people because of political affiliation. Poor reasoning and even poorer management. If he makes business decisions on such reasonsing he will not be in business long.

The local FReeptard in my office (yes we actually have a few at Amtrak...can you say "I vote 'ginst my own self interests.") may be incredibly uninformed but he does produce.

[awoke_in_2003]

21. I remember seeing this same rant...

threatening the same crap if Obama were elected. It is a delusional post made by someone who still lives with Mommy and Daddy.

[GoCubsGo]

23. These are usually the types that...

...have, in the past, started other posts with "I used to be a Democrat, but..." No competent business owner has the time to post this kind of crap on a discussion board. They are all too busy trying to run their businesses.

[awoke_in_2003]

24. Yep...

every time I read them my BS meter starts pegging.

[Peacetrain]

31. I have noticed that too.. the most virulent spew always begins with " I used to be a Democrat"

as if saying that gives them creds that people will actually listen to their fantasy life and take it seriously.

[City of Mills]

22. I fired 32 Republicans from my multimillion dollar shipping company

Right after Palin resigned - they were the laziest workers on the dock anyway.

[NoPasaran]

43. That's nothing

I had my republican CFO thrown into a volcano just for sneezing!

[mkultra]

55. pfff

I found 100 random republicans on the street and stabbed them all with a shiv i made from a spoon rubbed on concrete.

[heppcatt]

25. This lie has to be a rightwing meme

I kept hearing this same BS from rightwingers at sites all over the internets.

[Historic NY]

29. Imagine if we started posting GOP owned business boycott info...

for no reason, other than the political connection they would start screaming.

[mwooldri]

66. We do actually... plus we encouraged people to "Buy Blue".

It was viewed as supporting "progressive causes".

If a business owner wants to re-align and go with their values, then it's up to them. I feel the person who posted on the Hannity site as quoted in the OP may be just posting for fun, but still... it is the business owners right to do this. I wish we knew what the business name was, locations, etc...

It's the same with any other cause, really. I refuse to purchase eggs from hens that were raised in cramped little cages fighting for space with other hens. As a result, I pay more. Not a good business decision if I'm running a restaurant because those caged hen eggs are surely cheaper, but it's the "right decision" for me.

[Cirque du So-What]

26. In my experience

'captains of industry' don't spend their time trolling internet forums. They're more interested in their business than pandering to numbnutz characters on some website. I'm guessing this is a 40-year-old virgin posting from his basement lair.

[Irreverend IX]

33. Most of the time, but sometimes you'd be surprised.

Google "Amanda Chapel" sometime. Of course, she was created by the captains of the PR industry in response to a perceived threat to that industry. I remember a similar "I'm going to fire a bunch of Democrats" post by some freeper before Obama got elected, so I'm sure he's just a fighting keyboardist looking for more attention.

[trapper914]

27. Pleasantly surprised

The most of the other posters on that thread called him out on it.

[spoony]

60. Yep, that's how you know

a story is REALLY obviously fake or outrageous, when even Hannity zombies reject it.

[Arkana]

28. He's a liar.

More likely he's a Cheeto-and-Mountain-Dew stained keyboard warrior who gets hardons when he thinks about doing this.

[Jakes Progress]

30. He's full of shit and being a typical repub blowhard.

But let him switch to repub suppliers. They will cheat him, lie about their product, sell him crap, and close doors before they warranty anything.

Let him hire the lazy, whining, complaining room full of republicans. They are stupider and less capable of reasoning. His business will suffer.

What an ass.

[whistler162]

32. Same old rewritten "post"

It has floated around for years in slightly different forms.

[tranche]

56. What he said ^^^

[walldude]

34. You guys are buying this?

This guy is a full of shit as they come. He probably sells Herbalife.

[Ikonoklast]

36. Yeah, as soon as his Mom lets him.

[jmowreader]

70. That's one horrific photoshop, you know that?

Is it even possible to surf the internets on an IBM XT?

[cherish44]

37. And then he did a triple flip swan dive off the diving board..and then he got laid...

yeah ok

[rufus dog]

38. Having spend some time at inSanity let me interpret.

I can't post there, several life time bans, they have a bat shit crazy moderator named Lee Kingston who I called out an too many occasions.

Poster said:

"..who were my suppliers, I am switching to others, I don't need them."

Actually meant:

"Mom cut back my allowance so I have to cut off the mini mart and porn video rental store."

Poster said:

"I hope every con will do the same."

Actually meant:

God Damn my mother, it is tough to make it on my disability check and she always has money left over from Social Security, she just thinks about herself.

[unapatriciated]

46. Just in case you didn't know the majority of people on disability are Dems.

and the checks always fall short. My son is disabled and yes this mom helps him out every time. I know you meant it to be funny but it's not for the many disabled who have to survive on a little over $800 a month.
Right now in California many disabled are being cut back drastically on their medical and will not be able to get medication that is life sustaining, so it is not that funny to some of us.

[PassingFair]

39. I wouldn't worry about THAT asshat.

With all those puglicans working for him,
he won't be in business much longer.

In my experience, they will cheat until
they are caught, and they will engage in
CONSPIRACIES to do it, if they have to.
Which they DO, if there are honest people
around.

:rofl:

[Dr Fate]

40. I didn't know that so many powerful conservative businessmen worked from their parent's basement.

n/t

[Captain Lance Bass]

42. LOL n/t

[BlooInBloo]

44. Gotta love domestic terrorism attempts.

[asphalt.jungle]

45. people with this hyper-partisan mentality wouldn't have any dem employees or contractors

in the first place. the only people they would end up laying off or firing are those that think like them.

[and-justice-for-all]

48. Discriminating Repukes, who would of thunk it....nt

[Orsino]

52. Or simply a lying freeper. n/t

[Vektor]

49. Many phony posts like this on the "internets"...idiots claiming to be Repukes who fire Dems...

:eyes:

How original. As one poster stated upthread, these are masturbatory fantasies, written by unemployed basement dwellers in piss-stained pajamas who have never even held a job, much less a managerial position.

They're having power trip fantasies about having some way of "getting revenge on the liberals."

Don't get yourself worked up over it, this is complete fabrication.

[Ganja Ninja]

50. This douchebag probably doesn't even have a job let alone be

in a position to fire anyone.

[Pool Hall Ace]

51. I didn't know they were claiming Franken stole the election.

How on earth did they come up with that?

[PVnRT]

53. Franken won a close election; therefore it was stolen (n/t)

[SKKY]

57. I want to punch Sean Hannity in the mouth. I promise, I would love the opportunity...

...to face him in a ring, an octagon, wherever. I would beat that smug prick to within an inch of his life.

[Captain Lance Bass]

68. Ya us libs are just hatemongers...Hannity on the other hand

spreads fair and balanced love over the airwaves.

Wouldnt blame ya if ya did :/)

[backscatter712]

58. Firing people because of their political affiliation is illegal, IIRC.

Doesn't that violate anti-discrimination laws?

[dccrossman]

59. Assuming you can prove it

most businesses wouldn't bother with this because it's expensive and it's a pain in the ass to fire someone with any skills and then train up a replacement

And there's a ton of paperwork to show exactly why someone was let go, so that you are protected from the eventual law suits.

Small enough companies can get away with it, because they're exempt from a lot of the anti-discrimination laws.

- This should have a reference and I don't have one. I'm basing that last comment on personal experience and conversations with attorneys a few years ago. I think Title VII sets it at less than 15 employees.

[gardenista]

61. This is a fantasy.

[City of Mills]

63. Henceforth, this will be known as "Punching the Ocean"

One of the funnier replies:

Let me get this straight. At your pretend business you decided to stick it to two pretend suppliers (who presumably don't pretend to employ some Republicans) because the Minnesota Supreme Court (composed of some real Republicans) ruled that Al Franken should be seated as Senator? Why not punch the ocean the next time a cap-and-trade cap bill gets passed? My God, the lunacy on these boards.

[spoony]

67. lol

That one's great, and so are the ones mocking him by making up their own stories. I think one involved a lightsaber, so extra points there.

[spooky3]

64. what about profit maximization, the free market mantra?

According to neoclassical economists such as Gary Becker, the conservative hero, no one would ever fire a worker for any reason other than they were less productive than an alternative. Any employer who discriminated on the basis of politics would quickly be driven out of business because his/her competitors would hire the most productive workers regardless of politics and because of the high productivity relative to costs, would be able to sell more products at lower cost than the discriminator.

Why does this "Republican" hate capitalism?

[RichardRay]

65. I took the homes and life savings from 10's of thousands of cons today...

Oh, wait, they did that to themselves, I didn't have to have a thing to do with it...

[Proud Liberal Dem]

69. How did Franken "steal" the election?

with all of the counts, recounts, court challenges, etc? Yeah, I know how amenable people like THAT are to reason but still......? Coleman dragged out everything as long as he could and Franken stuck in there patiently and allowed the process- the law- to work itself out until they came to the end of the road, the courts ruled against Coleman, Coleman ultimately came to his senses and conceded. If Franken *stole* the seat, he did a damned good job of paying off all those election officials, judges, etc. involved in the proceedings. :eyes:

As far as this a**hole is concerned, I wonder how many Democrats fired their Republican employees after Bush/Cheney stole the Presidency in 2000?

[BlooInBloo]

71. Even the posters in that thread don't believe it.
