Quote from JamesL:
In keeping with the unemployed theme:
Dear Valued Employees:
As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama is still our President and that our taxes and government fees will continue to increase in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases, our prices have to increase by about 10%. But, since we cannot increase our prices right now due to the dismal state of the economy, we will have to lay off sixty of our employees instead.
This has really been bothering me as I believe we are family here. I didn't know how to choose who would have to go.
So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lots and found sixty 'Obama' bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go. I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem.
They voted for change... and I gave it to them.
I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

Quote from AK Forty Seven:
Thanks to Obamacare if you have a pre existing condition and lose your employer health care you will soon be able to get insurance since they will no longer be able to deny you due to a pre existing condition.If you had voted for Romney obamacare would be repealed and you would have no health care and less unemployment benefits
