Nominate Rep Sue Myrick (R-NC) for WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD
Help Rep Sue Myrick (R-NC) get the recognition she deserves.

Join me in nominating Rep Sue Myrick for Worst Person in the World.


Does anyone see the irony in this?

US Rep Myrick is going to pull her account at Bank of America because of its credit card that illegals could use....



"Myrick joins fight against BofA credit card"

A Myrick spokesman also confirmed that the congresswoman plans to move her Bank of America accounts to rival Wachovia Corp.

...Myrick has typically been an advocate of the city's big banks,
and her campaign reaps donations from their workers


http://www.charlotteobserver.com/115/story/57176.html


But Myrick would move her accounts to Wachovia Bank, which is sending 80% of jobs to India.

I wonder if Myrick will be getting her donations from India?


Wachovia is in the process right now of offshoring 80% of its processing work to India.

"Wachovia looks at outsourcing tasks" Mar 27, 2007
As part of an ongoing outsourcing effort, Wachovia Corp. is looking at shifting some payments functions handled by a business group in Charlotte and Winston-Salem to a firm in India.

...By the end of this year, Wachovia is looking to cut annual costs by up to $1 billion through outsourcing, improved processes and tightening expenses. The initiative is expected to eliminate up to 4,000 jobs http://www.charlotteobserver.com/123/story/58190.html


Insiders say that Wachovia will cut 80% of work in North Carolina, thats more than 4,000 jobs.


If you agree that Rep Myrick is an idiot:


Then please join me in nominating her for "Worst Person in the World" for Keith Olberman show:

4. thanks but this isnt' IT, its the regular processors who do daily work
this is those 4,000 women, many of them single parents,
who process debits, credits, tranfers, reconcile accounts, maintenance
accounts.

Wachovia already screwed the IT dept, but this is new and in addition.

The goal is to get rid of 80% of the work and give it to Gentec,
whose employees make about $6,000 a year.

5. sorry guess you didn't get the point
I was trying to say how ironic it is that Myrick wants to punish "illegals", likely
Mexican, by denying them the opportunity to join us in credit card debt,
but she is perfectly happy to move her money to a bank that is going to offshore
local processing jobs.

Yes, another poster pointed out that BOA did that too, but BOA brought back
some of those business units.

Yes, IT is being outsourced and already is greatly outsourced.

The story is about IRONY.

Not about whether its right to give credit cards to illegals, or that its better to have illegal immigrants benefiting from our economy as opposed to people in India having our jobs.

ITS the Irony.

No wonder Sue Myrick doesn't get it.

2. Naah, my favorite "Worst Republic from NC" has to be Virginia Foxx.
Can't stand her, her poodle cut or her voice.

3. S0000 WHAT
I don't know why you would be in favor of making credit cards readily available for illegal aliens. They are freaking illegal for chrissakes! Why the fuck should they get credit cards?? They need to be out of the fucking country. Myrick is actually right on this point!
There are many reasons to hate Myrick, but that ain't one. By the way, B of A and Wachovia both donated $250K to GW Bush's re-election party, so fuck them both. And the previous poster was correct about India!
