Subject: The Employee Meeting
The Employee Meeting: I would like to start by thanking you for attending
this meeting, though it's not like you had much of a choice. After all,
attendance was mandatory. I'm also glad many of you accepted my invitation
to your family members to be here as well. I have a few remarks to make to
all of you, and then we'll retire to the ballroom for a ...
I saw this on another board and thought I'd get everyone's take on it here.
Apparently this has been going around in emails as well.
I have not fact checked any of his "statistics", but really that's not the point, IMO.
Whether you agree with this guy, or think he's a class A JERK, I believe it's the reality of "taxing the rich" or "redistributing the wealth". Remember, the income tax ...

GA] Transcript of remarks made by Leo Carrington (who doesn't exist) to a mandatory meeting of all employees of Carrington Automotive Enterprises, Inc. (which ...

It appears that it's just another fictional story of impending gloom and doom to stir the masses, a Neal Boortz piece. Whatever works, I reckon. I'm not especially moved by hyperbole from anyone, right, left or middle.
I'll save someone the trouble:...
ToMAYto, toMAHto.
See, that's the hyperbole I'm talking about that completely blows any credibility. I'm fully aware of what's going on and I have a very watchful eye on it because surprise surprise I'm as concerned as anyone about cost and outcome. Still, call me silly, I just don't need to be spoon fed anyone's hysterical rhetoric to be "informed." I'm not buying that whole "if you're not ...
WHAT? Actions have consequences??!!?? NO FREAKING WAY! The government needs to pass some laws and set up a new department to rid us all of horrible, appalling consequences.
I'm sorry, bigsweetie. My last response sounded snappier than I meant it. I think I directed at you a response to a general annoyance. I just do not understand how people are not insulted to have this propaganda shoved at them in the name of "information." Do these people think their audiences are so dumb that they need fairytales to make their point? Email forwards and facebook posts given so ...

Here is a foreign view of how we deal with the homeless.

Originally Posted by ~~Who,Me?~~ That's funny, you never seem to tire of brow-beating me. At least that's my perception from where I sit. Some of us don't Brow-Beat you because we Luv you (in our Doug voice)

Originally Posted by ~~Who,Me?~~ Anyone who has been on this board a while knows that I totally agree with this. It's not always about choices, some have very limited options available to them. But what's interesting to me, is that when Heidi posts this opinion, nobody rebukes it. If it was me, smee or beth...just as some examples, people would be all over us. Telling us that the aid recipients just didn't make the right...
