He has already exempted thousands of companies.

Even the unions are starting to realize that there is not enough Vaseline in the world to make Obama’s policies feel good.

The knuckledraggers, including Little Dick Trumka have just figured out that their commie masters have been using them as a bunch of useful idiots. LOL! Way to go guys! Hey Dick, while you and Piglosi were driving Obamacare "down the Republicans' throats", the 'RATS where shoving it up... LOL!

There is a complicated game afoot here. The union leaders are politically savvy animals. They understood from the start what would happen. The union leaders backed the law because they are connected to the Democrats at the hip and wallet. But now, they have to pretend to be innocent victims because they can be voted out of office. So, they’ve changed their tune now that it is too late. By playing this game they win both ways. They’ll get away with it because they can look their membership right in the eye and lie.

Anyone who thinks the unions have actually turned on Obama is simply not paying attention...

Remember it's not what they say...it's what they do...in secret and behind closed doors

The fix is already in or being worked on...

Union leadership will not be left holding the bag...

Their members...will toe the line or get a busted kneecap.

Democrats vote Democrat no matter what, and cry later. Unions vote Democrat no matter what. You got what you voted for, including Detroit! And, guess what! Next time, you’ll vote Democrat again. Suck it up.

Liberalism makes no sense at all. I know racists who voted for obama. I know people who hate unions who voted for obama. I know pro-lifers who voted for obama. I know people who hate Mexicans who voted for obama. All liberals are idiots.
