This has happened before when Obama comes to town.

Loss of a day’s pay is a big deal to these folks. He could care less.

And the Board’s first taxpayer-funded $18B report can be on wedding-day precipitation.

The traveling media pool see no protesters, hear no protesters, so cannot report on any protesters, who apparently are showing up regularly where Obama goes.

Thanks, I heard a few minutes of it when he told his lame joke. His ridculous photo-ops always look like photo-ops which defeat their purpose I would think. You wonder how he ever won the election with this clueless group of advisors. Well, he won’t be winning anymore.

Progressive presidents never care. Progress isn’t cheap.

The workers got double smacked, 1) loss of pay, 2) paying for his trip. Screw Marx’s son.

These are union construction workers so there's a good chance that a few of them voted for Barry.

You don’t suppose they were union workers, do you?

If so, now they know just what a crappy person they voted for.
