The Federal workers *are* the scum helping Obama—did you forget about the Federal workers unions?
I am talking about those working in the defense industry. Big difference and FU!
The majority of federal workers ARE Obama supporters, most out of sheer ignorance., like the majority of the U.S. Population. (I won’t say U.S. voters or citizens, since from what I saw at the polls last November, many Obama voters weren’t eligible to vote where they voted, if at all.). A fraction of federal workers are hard-core, with the union “welfare queen” mentality. But many are subject to a collective bargaining agreement without being dues-paying members of the union.
I’m not a fan of union agreements, but when you hear things like I heard yesterday, about a whole group of people being fired from a bank with no warning, some balance in what you can do to workers seems appropriate.
Also, AFGE backed Hillary in 2008, so Obama doesn’t slobber over AFGE like he does over SEIU. AFGE backed themselves into a corner. Obama knows that like most lefty groups, they aren’t going to leave the Democrat Party. So he can treat AFGE like they’re a desperate girlfriend with low self-esteem. He only shows up when he wants something, and they give in.
