Is This Voter Intimidation?

He owns the business, if employees don't appreciate the email I suppose they could join the millions of others looking for jobs. Maybe he is just being honest with them.

What part of being threatened do you not understand? Threats w/ loss of your job is intimidating people politically.

David Siegel, the owner of Westgate Resorts, sent a surprising email to his employees Monday.

It said that if President Barack Obama wins re-election and raises Siegel's taxes, he will have to lay off workers and downsize his company - or even shut it down.

"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," he wrote. "Rather than grow this company I will be forced to cut back. This means fewer jobs, less benefits and certainly less opportunity for everyone."

Intimidation would be like the Black Panthers holding weapons standing outside a precinct voting area...oh yeah your AG said it wasn't intimidation but yet talking to employees is?...Loony Lefties are becoming more desparate as November nears...

You are just as ignorant as some of your posts are. If you could comprehend any of the posts that I have ever made, you would know that I am definitely not a Loony Leftie. I do not like the idea of someone posting what I perceive as voter intimidation regardless of which party is involved.

Siegel was not "talking" to his employees, he sent them an email threatening them with job security if Obama is re-elected. Spin it however you want, but in my opinion it is a threat and very intimidating.

Certainly glad I don't work for Westgate Resorts.

I am so sick of hearing any politicians name at work, on the news in the paper and then I read the posts every night. After the elections we'll hear what a bum the person elected is until the next election.
