(CBS) Frustrated western New Yorkers have a pointed message for President Barack Obama when he visits the economically troubled region Thursday: “I need a freakin job.”The group has a website, and a video, both of which seem to be filled with llittle more than platitudes and pleas for “help” from above:
The president makes another stop on what the White House calls his “Main Street economic tour, this time to Buffalo, NY, the anchor city in a region that was hard hit long before a recession that made things even worse, reports CBS News White House correspondent Bill Plante.
Awaiting him will be a billboard carrying a simple, direct message: “Dear Mr. President, I need a freakin job. Period.” The sign is part of a media campaign called the INAFJ Project, which was organized by Buffalo businessman Jeff Baker. Baker lost his own small business 15 months ago.
“We employed 25 people and it was the most heartbreaking situation I’ve been through in my life,” he said.
This is what the youth of American consider an appropriate response to a time of crisis.
Do they really think that putting up a billboard is somehow going to magically make things better ? That Obama is just going to “give” them a job ? Yea, I think many of them do.
We’ve gone from The Greatest Generation to The Whiniest Generation.

What a waste of money. Billboards cost at least $10k+. That money could have been better spent putting orgone out there to combat chemtrails and elf waves coming from cell phone towers.
