    This is why my jaw dropped the farthest that day in 2008 when I was laid off from the best paying job I am certain I'll ever have again:

    http://bottomline.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/10/14/8320576-wages-have-dropped-and-wont-catch-up-until-2021

    It is also the reason I promptly left Detroit for warmer climes.

    I don't have until 2021 to wait until the job market opens up to better paying jobs.

    He never claimed the change would be a POSITIVE one, everyone only hoped that would be the case. They wanted something different, a change, which they sure got. But interestingly enough, there WAS a worse president than Bush! Surprise, surprise.

    He's played more rounds in the last three years than Tiger Woods. And he still swings like a spazz.
