I try to see to it each day that this sleazy company does not make a dime off me. They are as criminal and evil as the devil in the White House ( evil eyes )

George Bush started all these bailouts, that idiot. Now in 4 years when the economy is crap Obama can just look back and say that Bush started the ball down the hill. What happened to conservative principles? With all the money that Bush and the Republican congress spent, they disgraced the Republican party and it’s conservative ideals. Now look at the mess we’re in. That’s why people voted for Obama!

Somebody should literally bailout Chrissy’s head.
He’s looking top heavy, taking on fluids, might capsize.

I’ll leave it to you to speculate on what those head fluids are exactly:)

My daughter just bought her first house. Had to buy new appliances. She went to a local “big box” store that was running a sale on GE products. She told them she wouldn’t take them if they were free. The salesman asked why and she told them she was a conservative so of course she hated GE.He laughed and said she wasn’t the first with that comment either

I highly doubt anyone could avoid using or being used by GE. The list is gigantic.

I am seriously shocked at how Bush ended his term. It is like he sold out to big government at the end. Sad.

Good News:

Last thursday a young gent rang our doorbell. When my wife answered the door he identified himself as GE Security Services. My wife being her quickly cut him off with a resounding “not interested”. With a solemn look the young man asked “you don’t like GE?”. Of course she anwsered “No” without any explanation. The young quickly said “I’m getting that alot” and left.

Maybe the tide is turning. Don’t be too hard on my wife we lost quite a bit on GE stock.

As an ex-GE employee, none of this surprises me.

Anybody notice Obama’s new push for energy saving light bulbs? That will be a nice bump in earnings for GE, as well.

The corruption between GE and BOTH political parties could be the biggest scam ever pulled on the American people. We have to flush every lying back-stabbing incumbent from the government. I know that the ignorance of the American people will not comprehend the severity of the condition we are in, but unless things are changed soon, the direction may not be able to be changed in the future.

Not sure if anyone knows, but GE used to be one of the biggest producers of America’s nuclear weapons.

Maybe they’re out of that business, but they sure as hell have tight access to government contracts.

But no one can blame Obama for this debacle. GE’s admission to TLGP took place before Obama won the election, and months before he took office.

Let’s hope for some hope ‘n change……

“Hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change,
when will we see you?”

“Hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change,
where might thou be?”

“Hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change,
I wish, I wish I could see you!”

“Hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change, hope ‘n change,
EFF YOU!!
Let’s just keep things the same!

Wow, what a leg-tingler of an article.

Surprise? Nope. Not a nano-micron of a surprise with anything coming out of this administration.

I’ll stick to posting snarkified comments for awhile, because as of now, I just want to know two things:

The first being somebody please tell me when the shooting starts, so I can get home and protect my property.

The second thing…… I’d really like to figure out how these Fascist bastages in the administration are going to tell over 88 million legal firearms owners that they have to surrender over 325 million legally owned firearms…… because that’s coming. Maybe they won’t say anything and all at once, many of us will get that 2am knock on the door.

Cheers !
