Sounds like someone needs their credit cards cut up and default...or vote for Romney and everything will be alright again?

Are all the Jews pushing their man Romney?
I saw a David Siegel interview on CNBC today where he was questioned about an email sent to all his employees, that if they don't vote for Romney they will be laid-off. The email went viral and he was backpeddling his ass off to explain it. Siegel went on to say if Obama wins, he might just retire and live just fine for the rest of his life...he owns the biggest home ever built in the US.

A true Jew monument to himself!

What's ironic and ignorant about this POS Siegel the Neocon is that he made his fortune in selling timeshares. Without the fed.gov fueled real estate bubble he might have had to do some real work during his life.

I hope diversity comes to that monstrosity and burns it to the ground.

From: [David Siegel]
To: [All employees]

To All My Valued Employees,

As most of you know our company, Westgate Resorts, has continued to succeed in spite of a very dismal economy. There is no question that the economy has changed for the worse and we have not seen any improvement over the past four years. In spite of all of the challenges we have faced, the good news is this: The economy doesn't currently pose a threat to your job. What does threaten your job however, is another 4 years of the same Presidential administration. Of course, as your employer, I can't tell you whom to vote for, and I certainly wouldn't interfere with your right to vote for whomever you choose. In fact, I encourage you to vote for whomever you think will serve your interests the best.

However, let me share a few facts that might help you decide what is in your best interest.The current administration and members of the press have perpetuated an environment that casts employers against employees. They want you to believe that we live in a class system where the rich get richer, the poor get poorer. They label us the "1%" and imply that we are somehow immune to the challenges that face our country. This could not be further from the truth. Sure, you may have heard about the big home that I'm building. I'm sure many people think that I live a privileged life. However, what you don't see or hear is the true story behind any success that I have achieved.

I started this company over 42 years ago. At that time, I lived in a very modest home. I converted my garage into an office so I could put forth 100% effort into building a company, which by the way, would eventually employ you. We didn't eat in fancy restaurants or take expensive vacations because every dollar I made went back into this company. I drove an old used car, and often times, I stayed home on weekends, while my friends went out drinking and partying. In fact, I was married to my business — hard work, discipline, and sacrifice. Meanwhile, many of my friends got regular jobs. They worked 40 hours a week and made a nice income, and they spent every dime they earned. They drove flashy cars and lived in expensive homes and wore fancy designer clothes. My friends refinanced their mortgages and lived a life of luxury. I, however, did not. I put my time, my money, and my life into this business —-with a vision that eventually, some day, I too, will be able to afford to buy whatever I wanted. Even to this day, every dime I earn goes back into this company. Over the past four years I have had to stop building my dream house, cut back on all of my expenses, and take my kids out of private schools simply to keep this company strong and to keep you employed.

Just think about this – most of you arrive at work in the morning and leave that afternoon and the rest of your time is yours to do as you please. But not me- there is no "off" button for me. When you leave the office, you are done and you have a weekend all to yourself. I unfortunately do not have that freedom. I eat, live, and breathe this company every minute of the day, every day of the week. There is no rest. There is no weekend. There is no happy hour. I know many of you work hard and do a great job, but I'm the one who has to sign every check, pay every expense, and make sure that this company continues to succeed. Unfortunately, what most people see is the nice house and the lavish lifestyle. What the press certainly does not want you to see, is the true story of the hard work and sacrifices I've made.

Now, the economy is falling apart and people like me who made all the right decisions and invested in themselves are being forced to bail out all the people who didn't. The people that overspent their paychecks suddenly feel entitled to the same luxuries that I earned and sacrificed 42 years of my life for. Yes, business ownership has its benefits, but the price I've paid is steep and not without wounds. Unfortunately, the costs of running a business have gotten out of control, and let me tell you why: We are being taxed to death and the government thinks we don't pay enough. We pay state taxes, federal taxes, property taxes, sales and use taxes, payroll taxes, workers compensation taxes and unemployment taxes. I even have to hire an entire department to manage all these taxes. The question I have is this: Who is really stimulating the economy? Is it the Government that wants to take money from those who have earned it and give it to those who have not, or is it people like me who built a company out of his garage and directly employs over 7000 people and hosts over 3 million people per year with a great vacation?

Obviously, our present government believes that taking my money is the right economic stimulus for this country. The fact is, if I deducted 50% of your paycheck you'd quit and you wouldn't work here. I mean, why should you? Who wants to get rewarded only 50% of their hard work? Well, that's what happens to me.

Here is what most people don't understand and the press and our Government has chosen to ignore – to stimulate the economy you need to stimulate what runs the economy. Instead of raising my taxes and depositing that money into the Washington black-hole, let me spend it on growing the company, hire more employees, and generate substantial economic growth. My employees will enjoy the wealth of that tax cut in the form of promotions and better salaries. But that is not what our current Government wants you to believe. They want you to believe that it somehow makes sense to take more from those who create wealth and give it to those who do not, and somehow our economy will improve. They don't want you to know that the "1%", as they like to label us, pay more than 31% of all the taxes in this country. Thomas Jefferson, the author of our great Constitution, once said, "democracy" will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."

Business is at the heart of America and always has been. To restart it, you must stimulate business, not kill it. However, the power brokers in Washington believe redistributing wealth is the essential driver of the American economic engine. Nothing could be further from the truth and this is the type of change they want.

So where am I going with all this? It's quite simple. If any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, as our current President plans, I will have no choice but to reduce the size of this company. Rather than grow this company I will be forced to cut back. This means fewer jobs, less benefits and certainly less opportunity for everyone.

So, when you make your decision to vote, ask yourself, which candidate understands the economics of business ownership and who doesn't? Whose policies will endanger your job? Answer those questions and you should know who might be the one capable of protecting and saving your job. While the media wants to tell you to believe the "1 percenters" are bad, I'm telling you they are not. They create most of the jobs. If you lose your job, it won't be at the hands of the "1%"; it will be at the hands of a political hurricane that swept through this country.

You see, I can no longer support a system that penalizes the productive and gives to the unproductive. My motivation to work and to provide jobs will be destroyed, and with it, so will your opportunities. If that happens, you can find me in the Caribbean sitting on the beach, under a palm tree, retired, and with no employees to worry about.

Signed, your boss,

David Siegel

In the short term, Romney is clearly better for the domestic economy than Obama. In the long run, we are screwed either way as the economy is imploding no matter who gets elected. I support Ron Paul. But given a choice between Romney and the illegal alien Marxist interloper-in-chief who I simply cannot stand, I'll take the mormon any time. If you are against Obama then you are for Romney. A third party candidate will not win this election.

Mr. Mamboni...with all due respect, you are electing to extend the collapse. Least of two evils, huh!?
Maybe we can even prolong this far enough into the future to dump the collapse on your children?
You do realize that ORomney is there to provide Wall Street with another nice boost to their bottom line and lull the old white tea party people back to sleep for another four years.
I feel when faced with two evils, I'll choose the most evil. Let's stay angry, let's get this thing done so your children can begin their new future. I know what needs to be done and I ain't getting any younger.

Ok, you are obviously of the "Lance the boil" school and I am advocating the "Hot and cold compresses" school. Yeah, your line of thinking vis-a-via Obama re-election really putting the collpase into overdrive and precipitating public revolt agrees with my thinking on the subject. Ok, you're right - let's lance this baby and let the pus explode all over! As for Obama: I'll just turn off the TV and radio permanently - I'm 90% there already. LOL. This is why I'm not voting - it's pointless. But I will not cast my vote for an illegal alien closet moslem fraudster on general principle - understand?

I'm with EE on this, more to this as well, who runs Romney.

For these many related reasons we will see Romney as the new Pres IMO.

And it will be worse on many levels.

Here is my comments on Obongo today.


Obongo is the NWO Poster Boy.

We knew this when he got the " nobel peace prize " , LOL !

He immediately expanded all the aggression he got elected to stop.

He is from 3 continents, 3 religions, 3 races, has 3 faces, and is a queer too.

Mamboni, great overview, disagree with you on Romney , he is totally
in the pocket of the NeoCons, I thought he was a throw away candidate
and it was in the bag for Obama, but I changed my opinion, seeing all the
NeoCons associated with Romney. Romney is going to be Pres,
more blatant than Bush Admin II. A few big things will be served
by this as well, pin it on Obama economic distractions, race relations distractions,
major escalation of wars. The NeoCons are crazy, Obama isn't as crazy as
they are. Will there be a Dempsey in Romney admin ?

Mamboni has a great overview of history, events, thanked him.

It's with regret to say Romney is going to be the next criminal in charge.
Israel is pushing for him, the monied Jews are threatening their employees with lay-off's and the Libs have backed away from Obama.
Eight more years of decline, theft and lies it is!

Does anyone else remember this letter coming out before from another CEO? I don't mean the one from Papa John's Pizza, saying they're going to raise prices if Obama is elected, I mean that I seem to remember one coming out like this a while back almost word-for-word "I can't tell you who to vote for, but if Obama is elected, there will be layoffs..."... which would really hint at some engineered propaganda, if that could be found.
