When candidate Obama was campaigning in South Carolina in 2007, he said he was proud to wear the “union label” and that if workers were denied rights to organize or collectively bargain when he was elected, “I'll put on a comfortable pair of shoes myself, I'll will walk on that picket line with you as president of the United States of America.”
But as the protests over collective bargaining rights drag out in Wisconsin, President Obama has yet to join the demonstrators outside the Capitol building in Madison, and it appears his administration is trying not to get involved in the fight.

Obotula fears the conservative masses.
They brought a goat with them???
The list, ping

What a great photo op that would be.
So much for Obama and being a centrist/lol
On every single conservative campaign ad.
Just sayin’./lmao
10 to 1 says he does it now that he’s being called out on it.
The day a sitting President acutually walks the picket line with protesters against a state government, which I believe is still in the Union, is the day we all need to head for the hills! Montana to be exact!
And I thought it was just two stray dogs humping in the park...
He should. It destroys his "hope" of a USSA!
Yeah!Like the Secret Service would let that rabble anywhere near the Prez.
Ever since I saw A River Runs Through It, I have wanted to move to Montana.
I was itching....now I am scratching to get out of NY....I just need a job and a place to stay!!
I've got both here. Been here my whole life. I've been researching where to go. Montana is ALWAYS living in my head!!
Gee I just love it when democrats get stuck in their own words! Get out there and March Obie! You said you would.All the while knowing that about 70% of the Americn public think the cut backs are a great idea...go a head and do it Obie!
I’m sure when he was a ‘community organizer’ he relied on others to do the ‘community organizing’ for him.
its been said that jimmy carter passes a law against collective bargaining for federal employees- so Obama would look like a fool showing up

Prop bet?
I’ll take your 10-1. His handlers won’t let him do it.
If he walks with the union strikers in Wisconsin before the end of April, I pay you $1 US.
If he doesn’t you pay me $10 US.
Deal?
Obama couldn’t walk with the Commies in Wisconsin. He was too busy helping the Muzzies in Libya.
“I’m tired of this dirty old city.
Entirely too much work and never enough play.
And I’m tired of these dirty old sidewalks.
Think I’ll walk off my steady job today.
Turn me loose, set me free, somewhere in the middle of Montana.
And gimme all I got comin’ to me,
And keep your retirement and your so called social security.
Big City turn me loose and set me free.” - Merle Haggard
We just had dinner with our accountant who’s wife found a small place for them to go up to every so often, in a small town in Montana. He loves trout fishing and says it is gorgeous! Can’t remember the name of the town though. I will post it later if I remember it. My husband has been saying that we are moving to Montana and I’ve been laughing all along about his comment, but now I’m seriously thinking about it. I’m not a cold weather person but we did live in Manhattan for 10 years so I guess I could get use to it. It sounds like my kinda people there!
