Home Depot to lay off 1,000 - Yahoo! Finance (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Home-Depot-to-lay-off-apf-1407750585.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=3&asset=&cc ode= - broken link)
Home Depot laid off 7,000 workers last year while sending huge sums of money to support NASCAR.

I'll never spend another nickel with them.

Sams club, Home Depot who's next, he is failing lets face it, he can not commit to anything he promised. Worse housing situation ever, and going downhill fast, economy down, and jobs, slipping, More foreclsoed short sale and bank owned properties then ever before, with more to hit the market. His loan modification program, has failed, he's a flop. Some in the media, are now sorry they ever hyped him up, some in his own party, not agreeing with him, voters who voted for him, tired, of his rheotric. People were right he did not have the right experience, good fast taker, that's about it. A legion he is in his own mind.

Actually, Obama is doing pretty well considering the mess he inherited.

Sound familiar?

Liberals blames Bush for everything, now it is Obamas turn, only Obama record shows he has caused things to get far worse then Bush ever left it.

There is nothing better since Bush left office, everything is getting worse even with an open checkbook, complete control of the country.

Stop with the excuses, this is Obamas mess, lets see if he can turn things around. Oh wait, guess we already know he cannot.
