Happy Labor Day America!

Enjoy the company picnic…

and celebrate our American workforce…

by buying American whenever possible…

Always being thankful for the opportunity to work freely…

in a country where your sacrifices are always appreciated…

And bosses express their best wishes for the workin’ man’s holiday.

You too can learn Teabagese with little or no effort. Any education is not required, it may even be detrimental to your success.

There’s never been anyone to encapsulate an entire year as humorously as the Jib-Jab folks seem to.

Without further ado….

Lou Dobbs ought be tired of all the treadmarks on him because it seems as “Mr. Independent”, as he so humbly refers to himself, has become the “Liberaly biased” media’s favorite bus-stop.
