Carly, Carly, Carly. This is why you need to register your domains!

We can’t help but think that if this had been a former employee at Hewlett-Packard’s job, they would have joined the ranks of those frowny faces.

According to Wired, there are about 30,000 of those frown emoticons, and a bigger story behind them: “As for the 30,000 jobs, that’s certainly true, but as Politifact pointed out in 2010, it’s a bit more complicated than the raw number,” states Wired. “Fiorina oversaw a merger with then-tech-giant Compaq during her HP tenure, and many of the eliminated jobs came from the redundancies that occur when you mush two companies together. Which is not to excuse the merger in the first place; it was and remains widely regarded as a significant blunder, and ultimately contributed to the HP board of directors forcing her to resign in 2005.”

Carly Fiorina officially threw her hat in the ring for the Republican nomination for president, telling ABC’s Good Morning America via CNN, “I think I’m the best person for the job because I understand how the economy actually works. I understand the world; who’s in it.”

Taking a shot at Hillary Clinton, calling her “not trustworthy,” Fiorina’s website, carlyforpresident.com, launched with a video of her explaining why she’s running, to end the rule of the “political class.”

As for those 30K unhappy faces on carlyfiorina.org, well, they’re probably not going anywhere for a while.

If you scroll to the end you get this kicker:
