White House, GOP to Unemployed Americas: Get a Job, Ya Lazy Bum
Q You mentioned earlier about the pain everybody is feeling as a result of all this. Well, the House passed an unemployment extension bill, which would extend unemployment for all states for seven weeks, and for those that have high unemployment, above six percent, for an additional 13. Would the White House support this bill?
MS. PERINO: Well, Paula, I don’t even think — Congress is not even in session, so there’s no legislation moving through Congress. We have supported unemployment benefit extensions in the past, although we wanted a shorter period of time than many had wanted. I don’t know if there’s some people recommending a 26-week extension. We cut that back to 13 weeks back in June. One of the reasons that we did that is because we want people to be able to return to the workplace as soon as possible.
So unless legislation starts moving that I’m not aware of when Congress isn’t here, I don’t know how we could support it….
MS. PERINO: I hope that everybody who wants to find a job is able to find a job. I can only imagine the anxiety for people who are looking for a job and can’t find one. And it’s hard to put myself in their shoes because I haven’t been in that situation. But obviously states — and there are many of them — that have high unemployment rates have a lot of people who are suffering. But getting back to work would be the best way to help all of us, collectively, them individually, and then us as a country.
Got that, you lazy son of a bitch? Your Republican president won’t extend unemployment benefits while the economy is crashing around us, no one can get a loan, and your Republican president is giving $700,000,000,000 of YOUR taxes to bailout the very people who left you and your family with nothing. $700 billion to the guys who gamed the system and sent the good jobs overseas, and it’s
get a job, bum” for you. $85 billion to bailout AIG (who promptly threw a big party for executives at the luxury St. Regis resort and spa), and “get a job, bum” for you.
Soup is good food(we don’t need you any more)
You made a good meal(we don’t need you any more)
Now how do you feel(we don’t need you any more)
To be shit out our ass
And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash
We’re sorry
You’ll just have to leave
Unemployment runs out after just six weeks
How does it feel to be a budget cut?
You’re snipped
You no longer exist

And when I get the paper
I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to say
If there is any work for me,
And when I go back to the house
I hear the woman’s mouth
Preaching and a crying,
Tell me that I’m lying ’bout a job
That I never could find.
