My understanding is all the fed, workers who stop working will get back pay for the time off, Seems like a new fed, holiday coming
Newest Scam – Select Staffing – only apply if you are less them two months unemployed. I called prior to going to take their services and specifically asked
If I needed to bring anything and what were the requirements. Only to find out once arrived at 6 am that if you had been unemployed longer then two months then they would not even talk to you. Had the lady told me this prior on the phone, I would not have wasted my time today. I could have spent that on looking for something else. Just beware what your excepting out there. Everyone is looking for something different

The Gov Shutdown:
Well, the media has found the topic, du Jour for the week.
Without the media hype, I doubt that most people would notice, because so much of what today’s government does, doesn’t need doing.
And you can dance around it every which way you want to. FACT = President Obama INHERITED a $12 TRILLION national debt from President GW Bush! FACT = President Obama INHERITED 2 WAR costing over $3 TRILLION (SO FAR). FACT = President Obama INHERITED a ECONOMIC DISASTER that will take YEARS to recover from! These are FACT that will be run and said OVER and OVER again to the American people because the Republican Tea Party has their well-funded propaganda machine that doesn’t want those FACTS out! Who in their RIGHT mind would vote back in the same RIGHT-WING party that put this country in this economic sinkhole! Barack Obama INHERITED these messes and will be given a 2nd term to clean up the republican excrement that President Bush left behind! MORE Hypocrisy 202???? President Bush gave the Iraqis FREE UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE in 2006 that the American people are paying for at a cost of $1 BILLION dollars!!! But the RIGHT-WING in America fought against it here in the USA!

Maybe its time to vote a woman into office? I mean as long as America is testing the water to bring everything onto its knees why not? Lets get someone like Lindsey Lohan into office oh wait that means another semi abused individual with extra luggage. Hmm how about Barbra Boxer? she has done nothing to help Californians maybe give her a crack at the white house. But I think yet again if we do that lets swing both houses back to a democratic party strongly.
America surely can vote what is good for everyone. Cough , Cough cough.
What we are is our worst nightmare, wait no its that we are quick to fall to the best suited individuals to any office and yet knowing everyone lies despite there best intentions. So our alternative is to vote either the best liar or the ones that do not lie the worst? Hmmm Well one good thing we certainly know a collapse is coming and why wait till the latter when we can watch it coming now ………..right?

Hey YOU forgot one! " The REAL problem with funding the Government. “When the House passed the budget bill, the Republican majority added an unprecedented number of policy riders to it, touching on just about every major political issue you can think of. While budgets always affect social policy, decisions on which programs to cut and which to fund should be made in the regular appropriations process that allows for committee review and public input. Of course, the Democrats failed to complete the appropriations process last year when they controlled Congress, and that’s why we now have to do the budget through a continuing resolution. But that doesn’t justify the Republicans bypassing congressional deliberation and public review now” http://www.opencongress.org
“riders” lol? So you want tax payers to pay to kill babies? That is your biggest issue with Republicans? LOL? Really? What kind of evil selfish mentally ill person wants to fund murders of innocent healthy children. See the studies and cases 99.99 percent are healthy nothing wrong with them thinking breathing human beings. Yet your biggest concern is to murder a child that is about to be born? See this is why our country is a mess. People like you vote in mobsters, unionistas, corrupt community leaders lol, steal from tax payers, promote laziness as in a welfare state, have double standards, ignore your own parties failures, ignore that Obama is a failure, ignore that Ried and Pelosi left you behind. You think they care about sher1? ROFL. I can see by your constant blathering on this site that your still trying to vote Bush out of office and its 2011. Something is wrong with that picture …with you!
Received EMAIL (bulk) AFL-CIO joining forcing with OTHER Americans fighting for issues that concern ALL Americans including the unemployed and UI benefits. The fight must be collective and the voices joined together to make a ROAR loud enough to be heard by the media and Washington or nothing will be done regarding the 99ers or a Jobs Bill.
Ohhh Cmon, Name your Hero time Lol! Try Nobody! Yes yes the GOP sucks But Who gave away the tax breaks for Nothing?? Oh yes we Need to reelect him. Its a joke to support ANY party. Our only hope is to find the right candidate, Its to bad the Dem’s are only going to offer the same “Change”
Anyone hear about Lee’s meeting with the GOP pigs today? Or is all the news about government shutdown, and our news being swept under the rug?
I would not expect the GOP pig scum to give her much attention anyway.
The meeting was cancelled.

Yeah insane one, what’s the results of the big meeting between Boehnor, Cantor, Scott & Lee? Show us the money….brainac
“Insanity is doing the same thing over & over & expecting different results”
I agree Legion1. Talk is cheap and the government knows this very well.
They expect America to buy into there crafty blame game when its the totality
of the entire government that brought this about to the general public.
Media watch dogs thrive on miss leading the America people, while spouting they
are looking out for America’s best interest…Right and yet another typical lie.
What is the difference between doing something over and over and doing something destructive over and over and over and over and over… Kinda like the democrats and this president are doing? Please explain. We are all ears.

I praise Obama for he is our savior. He makes us suffer so we can make ourselves better. He ignores us so that we can be strong. He spends all our money so we can work harder. He gets us into more wars so we can become crippled for life. He makes love to big business so we can be screwed too. He gives breaks to big companies via waivers but excludes us because we are peons compared to him. He vacations constantly so we don’t have to worry about him working for one minute. His wife demands salad bar laws for every restaurant so we know they are down to earth and hear our cries and top priorities. We praise Obama for crippling domestic business, border security, and deleting our rights because he knows whats best for us. We praise Obama for never working a day in his life because such a person deserves royalty. We praise him for his outstanding attention to the unemployed.
