EXACTLY COMMAND AND CONQUER IS NOT REAL LIFE. I hear people even claiming,that online shooting is the same as real shooting.If americans couldnt see past two women a black guy and a war hero all thrown at them at the same time,then its already lost.When one politician can stand out at the prsidential debates and state the fact that if you elect anyone of the above it will be business as usual, its lost folks. When average american goes uh ok! I cant evenb get food stamps without showing my penis.

""It's very depressing when you know you're qualified to do a job, and there are none available," said Cookie Gill, one of almost 150,000 Arizonans who is out of work." I have no sympathy for you. Keep electing these pos liberal officials that harbor illegal aliens and you will continue to have no jobs. F**k you janet napolitano.

Until U.S. voters start voting with their heads, which requires thinking, this kind of crap will continue. Our collective complacency got us here. I share the blame. It's too bad 11/2010 and 11/2012 are so far away. Much further damage will be done before there is any improvement. That is built into our elective process.... By whom? Congress. Why has our manufacturing base moved outside the U.S.? Because Congress allowed it to happen. Why are Free Trade Agreements lopsided against the U.S. causing continually higher costs for imported costs to U.S. consumers? Because Congress allowed it. Why are our energy costs rising, food prices, taxes at all levels continually increasing? You only get one guess. We are being ruled by an elite class of less than 1,000 people, the majority of which don't care if you and your family starve. Collectively and individually, WE put them there.

OH YES, WE DO WANT EVERY SINGLE JOB OUT THERE, NO AMERICAN HAS EVER THUMBED THEIR NOSE UP AT ANY EMPLOYEMENT, NOTHING IS TO BE HANDED OVER TO HISPANIC, RUSSIAN, SLAVIC, ROWANDIN, LIBERIAN, NIGERIAN, KENYAN, ETC ETC. THEY ARE ALL 99% ILLEGAL INVADERS, ESPECIALLY GUILTY PARTIES ARE; THE HOTEL, RESORTS, ALL RESTAURANTS, FAST FOODS, CONVENIENT STORES, AND NOW ILLEGALS ARE GETTING TECH TRAINING AND BUSINESS MANAGEMENT JOBS TRAINING WITH OUR TAX MONEY - FREE GOVERNMENT GRANTS SLATED SPECIFICALLY FOR THEM. ALL EMPLOYERS ARE DELIBERATELY DESCRIMINATING AGAINST AMERICANS, ARE THE FEDS GOING TO STOP THIS OR WHAT? WE WANT EVERY SINGLE JOB BACK NOW. NO SUCH JOB EXISTS THATS A THROW AWAY, IMPRISON THE EMPLOYERS WHO HIRE CHEAP LABOR FROM OTHER COUNTRIES, KNOWINGLY OR NOT - THEY BROKE THE LAW! THAT WILL STOP THEM. SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS ARE FABRICATED AND STOLEN FROM AMERICANS EVERY MINUTE, ARE THE FEDS GOING TO DO SOMETHING OR - WHAT ARE WE THE PEOPLE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? WE ARE ALSO NOT GOING TO GIVE FREE HEATHCARE TO ILLEGAL ENTRANTS, WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE SLAPPED WITH PENALTIES FOR REFUSING AS ITS WRITTEN INTO OBAMA'S HEALTHCARE BILL.

Anyone hear WHEN? Sure the Pres signed it into law, but when does AZ start to catch up on payments? By the way, GGARCIA - Where do you work? I want to go talk to your boss and explain how he can do better by hiring me over you; your competence lacking. Then you can experience the "get a job" slights and you can go to McD's and compete with the local immigrant for the fry guy job. This goes for anyone else with the same ignorant opinion.

Its so laughable these Obamanation huggers spew out the same lame argument that its all Bush's fault, when its actually making the BO more ugly as a president, because it shows how inept and uncapable he is, not even the multitude of over paid and over staffed czars he appoints weekly, are not capable of solveing any internal problems. Instead, he throws our money out to terrorist organizations around the world, kissing hands, bending down on one knee, adorizes them, admits he's a profound Muslim first, he possibly sympathizes so much, he supports all of them right in our own back yard

Get rid of all the illegals , jobs will pick up. Build the fence, round up illegals. That could employe millions. I would hate to be 18- 25 right now, they have no chance of a decent future.

Republicans caved on Wednesday night, ending their opposition over a bill that would extend unemployment benefits, after holding the process hostage for several weeks. The bill in question extends unemployment benefits for an additional 14 weeks across the board—and for 20 weeks in states with ultra-high unemployment.

I am against a continuation of "unemployment benifits" these pople just need to get out and get a job! (sarcasm intended), after all we have provided corporations large tax benifits in this state and they have plenty of NON union jobs available for those that want a job!

Just a hint: Since Safeway and Fry's are looking at a Union-led strike by their employees, you might want to get an application in there.
