Freeper talking points at work today.
They're bitching about stopping SS, about hearing parts of Obama's 2 speeches and saying they were the exact same speech he just changed India to Indonesia,
saying that Obama and Holder should be indicted for conspiracy for not enforcing the immigration laws. Then, to top it all off (since that sh*t wasn't enough already),
one of them just said that Obama and Biden are going to need to start watching their backs, that what kept some people from making threats against them was
that Pelosi was 3rd in line, but now she's not an obstacle because of Boehner.

I *HATE* my cubby. I wish they'd move these guys to the far side of the building and let someone else put up with their crap for awhile. Maybe closer to the
directors or VP offices. Yesterday one of them sent several small print jobs to the public printer and fax. He purposely let them sit there for all to see.
They were printouts that complained about the White House, Obama, Pelosi, etc. I really wanted to send two that said "Limbaugh is an a$$" and "FOX -
Fabricated Objectionable obnoXious" but I was afraid they could track my print job since they're the DBAs for our unit.

1. They were bitching in favor or against stopping Social Security.
Because, if they were complaining that government WOULD stop Social Security, then you need to ask them why they all voted for and/or supported candidates who want to dump it.

3. It was actually complaining more that they might not get theirs.

They think it should be stopped, but only for the younger workers, not them. Let's see - I'm in my late 40s - these guys are probably mid-50's, pushing 60.
It's all about them getting theirs, THEN screw the other people.

I've heard them complaining in the past re: property taxes and school referendums. They came right out and said that they didn't care about the schools now, their kids were done and they don't think their taxes should go to paying for the schools for other peoples kids.

They constantly make me feel like banging my head against a brick wall. I practically live with my headphones on. I fantasize some days about bumping the cubby divider just hard enough that some precariously perched documentation crashes down on their desk ;)

2. Have some fun with it. Call the Secret Service and tell them about
the "watching their backs" comment.

5. I briefly thought about that, but since they didn't say THEY were
contemplating taking that action, I didn't think it would do anything other than get me in trouble for filing the report. I could check with my FBI friend though
so I'm prepared for the next time they say something stupid like that.
