There seems to be a problem with my unemployment…

…so I will be off early tomorrow morning to try to get it settled. So I’ll likely be blogging much less than I normally do in the AM.

Hopefully it will get resolved quickly or things will get very nasty here rather fast.

Likely it is just routine but boy this is getting really old.

Q: Can I replace that $800 a week job I used to have blogging?

Robert Stacy McCain seems to think I should start a tip jar around here to see if I can make a go of it since I’ve had little luck on the job front since I’ve opened the blog.

So starting today you will see a page to the right called the “I’ll do it myself, Tucker” fund. This is in reference to my repeated offer to Tucker Carlson of Daily Caller fame to give him 40 hours a week work for $800.. So since Tucker is not willing to pony up I’m going to see if I can manage it from the blog itself.

I live pretty cheap, I don’t spend a lot of money on things I don’t need (cell phones, flat screen tv’s etc) and I get my insurance through my wife’s job. $800 a week and I can support myself and the family without a problem.

If you feel so inclined then feel free to click the link to the right and give to the “I’ll do it myself Tucker” fund. ( A PayPal account or Credit Card will be necessary) If I discover that I can average that $800 a week over the course of two months then I’ll stop worrying and just blog full time.

…by her ability to make the worst possible decisions of any candidate ever as Gateway Pundit reports.

I can’t believe the person running her campaign has a job and I don’t.

This is a Nelson moment if I ever saw one.

Of course if certain union guys know something; I don’t she will post this about me in a couple of days.

I can’t believe that president Obama is going to come to Massachusetts on Sunday unless he believes that his presence is going to make the difference in turning this campaign around. Then again I figured his trip to the Olympic stuff meant the fix was in and it sure wasn’t.

He is a lot less popular than people think, particularly when those voters get letters like the one I just opened:

Due to the complex nature of the procedure required to implement the program, a temporary payment program will be installed to make payments until the permanent payment program is implemented. During this interim period, if you are eligible and continue to certify weekly, you will be issued batch payments. Please be aware that the interim payment system does not include up to date account balances, hence your account inquiry will show a zero balance. This will change once weekly payments resume.

Or in other words if you are on unemployment, we need to hold your payments for a couple of weeks.

Considering that the first sentence of the letter mentions president Obama’s signature on this legislation the reader will tend to associate this problem with him. I suspect he has little responsibility for the complexity of the legislation but the people reading will the letter won’t be thinking that. They will see “President Obama” and “your checks are delayed.”

Talk about bad timing! And this is the man that they are bringing into help shore up Martha “I hate People” Coakley? Can’t anyone play this game?
