The president is firing up labor groups critical to his reelection with talk of an “assault on unions” in Wisconsin.
President Obama is sending a clear message to his allies in the labor movement as he gears up for his reelection campaign: I’ve got your back.
The president has waded into the bitter standoff in Wisconsin between Gov. Scott Walker (R) and public service unions, siding with protesters who say Walker’s plan to shore up his state’s budget with cuts to pensions and benefits is an “assault on unions.”
"Some of what I've heard coming out of Wisconsin, where you're just making it harder for public employees to collectively bargain, generally seems like more of an assault on unions," Obama told the Milwaukee television affiliate WTMJ. "And I think it's very important for us to understand that public employees, they're our neighbors, they're our friends."

The Community Organizer in Chief back to his ol’ violent rhetoric.
Sounds to me like they’re trying to overthrow our government.
The good news is that millions of kids are NOT being indoctrinated in socialist/progressive idiocy.
There may be even MORE good news IF this thing spreads and persists: It COULD cause more parents to home school.
Obozo’s orchestrated mob actions could very well blowback in his smug little face.
FUBO! AND YOUR CHICKEN SHIT CRONIES!
Dude, Greece.
These union thugs and commies are the most selfish greedy people on the planet.
Greece,Greese,Grease
is the word that you heard. It’s got groove, it’s got meaning.
Can’t see the irony?
Whatever happened to the term public “servant’? These folks signed on for jobs that were to ostensably “serve” their fellow man. Unfortunately, unions stepped in and began to bite the hand that feeds them and siphon off dues to basically bribe lawmakers to continue to funnel more money to them. It is a vicious, basically criminal practice that needs to be stopped. It is very unfortunate that the President of the United States is best buddies and had hundreds of visits in the Oval Office by none other than Andy Stern of SEIU. He has benefited from so much union dues he is Bribed-in-Chief who is campaigning on this issue to get more funds from the unions.
Of course they are! That's why they are compelled to accuse anyone who actually works for a living or creates opportunity for others of being "greedy and selfish" for wanting to keep what they earn.
They think that need and desire are legitimate claims on other people's rights... because that's what Progressive movement has taught them, and it feels so good to be able to just take what you want anyway, when you've got a big group around you validating your behavior. "Democracy" after all, is just a fancy name for mob rule. And in the Pinkie-Ring Union Thugocracy, don't forget that what's theirs is theirs and what's yours is negotiable.
They should be ignored as the irrelevant useless chattel that they are. They are worth nothing, their wants and needs are nothing, and our perspective of their future shoudl be nothing, except for the deletion of the obligation for their benefits and retirement of their useless and destructive endeavors. They do not serve us; they serve themselves.
Mac daddies owners (pimps) are telling him what to say and do since they OWN him.
President of the Unions, for the Unions, and BY the Unions, shall not perish.....
This is GREAT....majority BACKLASH is “ah fixin” to kick some union butt, and throw Wisconsin into a permanent RED STATE. You’re messing with Childrens education and pissing off the Majority. Lose...lose..for the DEMS>
The “president” needs to take note from Govenor Walker on how to solve problems. I wish some of this common sense approach was happening in our capitol, from either party
The union mobs are exactly the kind of government Obama wants. If you don’t like the election call out your goons to protest. This mob rule is what Obama spent his “community organizer” career doing.
