Ever had a job?
A chart that showed past presidents and the percentage of each
president's cabinet appointees who had previously worked in the private
sector - you know, a real life business, not a government job? Remember what
that is? A private business?
a.. Roosevelt - 38%
b.. Taft - 40%
c.. Wilson - 52%
d.. Harding - 49%
e.. Coolidge - 48%
f.. Hoover - 42%
g.. FDR - 50%
h.. Truman - 50%
i.. Eisenhower - 57%
j.. Kennedy - 30%
k.. LBJ - 47%
l.. Nixon - 53%
m.. Ford - 42%
n.. Carter - 32%
o.. Reagan - 56%
p.. GHWB - 51%
q.. Clinton - 39%
r.. GWB - 55%
And the Chicken Dinner Winner is.........................
a.. Obama - 8%*
This is the guy who wants to tell YOU how to run YOUR life!
ONLY ONE IN TWELVE in the Obama Cabinet HAS EVER HAD A JOB.
*YEP, EIGHT PERCENT!
And these are the guys holding a "job summit"; going to tell us
how to run our businesses, make our decisions for us? Do you want to trust
them with every aspect of your life?
