Obama: Imagine if workers could shut down a factory just because they didn’t get what they want

Via Charles Cooke. Imagine it. Imagine a movement so selfish that it would sabotage the operations of a venture on which vast numbers of people depend simply to gain leverage for its own agenda. Then imagine that that movement grew in numbers to the point where it could elect its own bought-and-paid-for politicians to do its bidding. Who knows how much havoc it could wreak? When you think about it, Democrats are right: It really is a sort of terrorism.

Am I awake?

Eastern Air Lines and the Machinists Union?

The government is a factory? What a clueless dolt.

[grania]

uhhhh...they could if they paid for that factory and decided it was wasting their money. In fact, they'd probably insist that the things wasting money were shut down.

Obama is not a 100 watt light bulb when it comes to coherent, logical arguments.

[GeronL]

Congress does not work for you Mr Barrycade

[skeeter]

One problem with the analogy - factories typically produce something of value.

[Gasshog]

the Jug-eared clown is beyond clueless.

he is reaching critical-mass stupidity

Imagine if a bank could shut down a factory just because they didn’t get the loan repaid.....

Imagine if a government could shut down a factory just because they didn’t get over due taxes...........

Imagine if a government could shut down a factory just because they didn’t like the overseas wood you used in your prodect...........

OOPs, let me correct

Imagine if the owners could shut down a factory just because they didn’t get what they want!

[GeronL]

Is this satire??

[Texas resident]

Jeez no kidding.

This dip is not as smart as his voters.

That’s saying something.

[struggle]

You mean like the Baker’s union did to Hostess?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Your union thug buddies will do that as soon as you issue an executive order making card check the “law of the land, pretty cool” as Paul “the Forehead” Begala once said.

[dalereed]

It’s called a strike you halfbreed illegal alien squatter in the white hut!

[puppypusher]

Obama’s Justice Dept.Did just that when they forced Boeing to close their new factory if I recall.

[mrsmith]

No one will know. This remark, like all the insane remarks he spews, won’t be broadcast on the Nightly News to the people.

[jazusamo]

That’s a joke, right?

If not 0bummer’s a bigger idiot than I thought.

[Gen.Blather]

“Isn’t that what a strike is?”

Interesting that he chose that analogy as neither the Nazis or Soviets allowed workers to shut down factories. But it’s been happening here since the American Revolution.

[luvbach1]

Unbelievably dumb statement. Odumbo sometimes surprises me.

[Gasshog]

no, WE OWN the factory.

But in King Obama world we are his “workers”

FUBO!

[b4its2late]

Don’t unions do just that? Unless of course they are promised that the stockholders will be thrown out and the union will own the company and run the company.....

[RinaseaofDs]

I thought this might be satire, so I went to the YT link and watched it.

How they hell can a guy this obtuse get elected President? Failure of the press, and a compromised high school and college educational system.
