Saturday Satire

David Letterman: "Mitt Romney lost all three of the primaries. Today, he begged Donald Trump to take back his endorsement."

“To undo the negative publicity Mitt Romney received from tying his dog to the top of a car on a cross-country vacation, Mitt responded by tying the car to the top of his dog.”

“Newt Gingrich says that people who ride on subways here in New York are the elite. I was on the subway today and one of the elites sitting next to me was smoking crack.”

Conan O'Brien: "Since yesterday's primaries, Rick Santorum's campaign has received $250,000 in donations. When Mitt Romney heard this, he said '$250,000? Oh, that's cute.'"

Jay Leno: "Rick Santorum says that he is what the Republicans really want. Mitt Romney says now that he knows what Republicans want, he can change to those positions."

President Obama has ordered new sanctions against Iran’s central bank for engaging in deceptive practices. I’ve got a better idea, how about sanctions against OUR banks for deceptive practices?”

'”Romney was at a loss to explain why he dropped the ball. In fact, his wife is now blaming it on the New England Patriot receivers."

"Donald Trump announced he is building a new hotel four blocks from the White House. And with any luck, that will be about as close to the White House as Donald Trump will ever get."

Jimmy Kimmel: "There's really no reason for anyone to drop out of the race. If you wind up in fourth place, you become a regular contributor on Fox News. You come in third, you get your own show on Fox News."

Who Really Takes American’s Jobs Away

   I’ll tell you one thing. It is not all of those illegal aliens who come across the border. It’s Americans who are taking them away.

   Meet some kings of industry:

CEO of Evergreen Solar, Mike El-Hillow

Aided by at least $43 million in assistance from the government of Massachusetts and an innovative solar energy technology, Evergreen Solar emerged in the last three years as the third-largest maker of solar panels in the United States.

But now the company is closing its main American factory,laying off the 800 workers by the end of March and shifting production to a joint venture with a Chinese company in central China.

Keith Schmid, former CEO of Boston-Power

Boston-Power Inc., which two years ago was passed over in its bid to get $100 million in federal aid to build a lithium-ion battery factory in Auburn, Mass., has followed through on its warning that it could turn to China as a new home.

The Westborough-based company, which had raised almost $200 million in venture funds, has received $125 million in private and government funding from sources in China, and is turning its focus to China for its manufacturing, its headquarters and some of its research and development. About 35 percent of the company’s roughly 110-person staff is expected to be cut in the next week or so.

None of em looks like a Chinese girl on a bicycle, do they? In fact, they're white guys just like YOU.
