Note that the President had a Budweiser in front of him, but wisely opted for a Guiness.In any event, one of the unemployed workers is a guy named Mark McKim. Turns out Mr. McKim was arrested in 2006 for DUI and possession of drugs. In 2007, he was arrested for violating probation.There might be a reason other than the GOP for Mr. McKim&#8217;s unemployment.Again, does the White House not vet these people?]]>Wed, 12 Oct 2011 22:50:20 -0400<![CDATA[Erick Erickson]]>https://redstate.com/erick/2011/10/12/maybe-thats-why-he-is-unemployed-n40757
