obama and his signature legislation

Santa Clara County, Calif., officials have banned a 20-year employee from making “less than positive” remarks about Obamacare, because they can cause stress for listening co-workers.
The county made the stunning move when Norina Mooney was chatting with a co-worker about the Affordable Care Act, according to the Pacific Justice Institute, which is representing the woman.
The organization has asked for a response by next week to its letter raising several issues with Lorie McKeown in the Santa Clara County Department of Child Support Services, where Mooney works.
Pacific Justice said Mooney was further informed that her comment had caused another co-worker — not the person to whom it was directed — to feel “stressed out.”

Well, if he is doing it during working hours, I think that they have a point.
Fight the statists, citizens! Fight!!!
I certainly don’t. It was a private conversation. If they allow pro-Obamacare information they must allow criticism of Obamacare or nothing of Obamacare.
Santa Clara County Govt is a stress-free zone.
nah they don’t… the story itself is unclear whether it was break time or general conversation. But consider that this Santa Clara County office has all sorts of folks wearing O t-shirts and positive posters at desks etc etc.
What you have is a nosy parker trying to cause trouble for someone they disagree with
Well, I think an employer has the right to limit non-work related activities during work hours. But you are right, they should, by the same token, limit pro-Obama talk too.
Santa Clara County Govt is a stress-free, and 1st Amendment free, zone.
Really?
I hope you’re right. From everything I’ve read it will hit the fan soon enough when more lose their benefits.
You’ve never worked at a government office, I take it?
So talk about Benghazi, F&F, the fake birth certificate, the deception of the American people to get elected and reflected, Obama’s utter lack of leadership, the $20 million dollars in vacation expenses, unemployment, the jobless Americans, the rising number of workers pushes into part time employment, the skyrocketing number of uninsured Americans, QE1, QE2, ....
Some great topics to bring up, indeed.
think what the real obamacare will do to the gal who felt stressed out.
People pretty much chatted about anything they wanted to. In fact, some of those ladies chatted for hours not having anything else to do.
Hmmmmm? California has it’s own system independent of the worst of ObamaCAIR.
I bet the day after Obama was illegally elected in 2008, the entire place of business celebrated. And the few in the room who didn’t vote for him had to be real quiet.
You’re completely out of your mind.
