since when did Politico become the nation's voice on political surveys, btw…

It is quite sad actually…

But the media were relatively quiet about that claim when Caterpillar recently announced that not only would it not rehire workers, but was cutting additional jobs.

Caterpillar Inc., the world’s largest maker of construction and mining equipment, announced 22,000 job cuts in January, and later offered early retirement to another 2,000 employees.

On Wednesday, Feb. 11, The Associated Press reported in a widely disseminated story that Obama said “Caterpillar has informed him it will rehire some of the thousands of workers it has laid off in recent weeks if Congress passes an economic stimulus bill . . .

“The president’s travel to pitch the urgency of the stimulus plan was his third day in a row to leave Washington. On Thursday, he goes to Peoria, Ill., to visit a Caterpillar manufacturing plant.”

But on March 17, The Associated Press reported that Caterpillar announced plans to lay off more than 2,400 additional workers.

“In the latest cuts,” AP stated, Caterpillar “said 2,365 support and management workers had been notified of layoffs expected to last at least six months . . . and 89 workers will be let go permanently.

Among the affected workers are 911 employees at the Caterpillar plant in East Peoria.

Caterpillar “also said more layoffs may be needed as the year continues,” according to the AP — which made no mention of Obama’s earlier statement about the company and the stimulus bill.

WRONG!

800 Billion Reasons To Be Worried

it is shameful and downright unlawful for the government of this great nation to pander off Socialism in the name of "recovery"…
If you don't wake up and realize what is going on this country soon, you nor I will have the opportunity to do anything besides move somewhere else if we want to live with the idea we can become prosperous simply by working hard and "doing the right thing" as our grandparents and past generations have…
this isn't about Democratic or Republican anymore…
this is about the very fabric of our existence as a nation for more than 232+ years….
all of that will be gone in a matter of months should this current administration continue with its current efforts…

I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.

When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys

They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!

He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink

He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!

" On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi"
He screamed at the pairs!

They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!

So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU'RE NOT INTO SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

read about this reaction by the Obama campaign when VP Candidate Joe Biden was asked some very pointed and very worthy questions…

Obama campaign cuts off WFTV after interview with Joe Biden

is this is the kind of "censorship" one can expect with a Democrat in the White House and an over-whelming majority in the House and Senate?

will it be My Way or the High Way for journalists and broadcast media?
