Even Hope and Change Isn’t Recession-Proof: Obama’s OFA Political Arm Begins Laying Off ObamaBots…
But not before they get one last frontal-lobe scraping prior to being released into the real world…
(NRO)- President Obama’s grassroots org is starting off 2011 with a round of layoffs:
The Democratic National Committee’s Organizing for America has started laying off staff in multiple states as the first phase of a restructuring before the official kickoff of President Barack Obama’s re-election bid.
A Democratic source told Roll Call that party officials started notifying employees Sunday night and that the layoffs are mostly a handful of field staffers in some states as Democrats assess where they want to fight 2012 battlegrounds.
“This is likely the first wave in a series of staff reductions as we transition for the re-elect,” the Democrat said.
It was unclear how many staffers would be laid off or where they are from, but OFA had staff in all 50 states. The cuts were expected, but officials had told aides before Thanksgiving that they would all be kept on the payroll through the holiday season.

As ZIP would say “Feel Good Story of the Day”
Hey some good news today
!
“But not before they get one last frontal-lobe scraping prior to being released into the real world…”
Made me laugh!
About time they begin to feel our pain.
Hey, that’s FIFTY SEVEN states, so says our President.
It’s Bush’s fault because of the Tax Cut’s for the Rich and Big Corporations are out to get the little guy, and because of Global Warming the can no longer afford the heating and cooling bill.
Now that the Republicans are fighting Health Care, Obama has to take all of his resources and shift them, so they are forced to lay off.
If you believe any of this, contact me because I have some land I would like to sell you.
He is dumping them on the gubmint health care plan.
Not to worry he will hire them all back when he starts his listening tour or what we conservatives like to call the public paying obama re-election tour.
After he takes care of all that extremely important African shithole place of birth problem he has.
Maybe marry off his oldest daughter while there to one of his many cousins ..She is getting to be an old maid you know almost 12 ,thats like 50 in Muslim years.
I guess they are running out of other people’s money.
@ whthfk
“thats like 50 in Muslim years”
Best joke of the day!!! I haven’t laughed so hard in weeks.
This is what I’d consider a parallel story to Algore “scaling back” in his organization as well. Seems you can’t buy too much at the grocery store with a wallet full of bullshit.
The layoff should boost the unemployment rolls to 10% -
It’s about time the left felt America’s pain.
