Owned by the Unions

   The President of the United States is aware of and involved in the planning and execution of trade-unionist (otherwise known as Socialist gang) protests, assaults and near riots against his (and his Party’s) political opponents and has been during his entire corrupt occupation of the office he now holds. The facts are irrefutable. The head of the SEIU was the number 1 visitor to the White House in 2009 (58 times) while SEIU members were bussed to Town Hall meetings all over America to break up debate, literally, thru denying access, intimidation, threats, and in a few rare cases actual violence against citizens over BHO’s socialized medicine plans. The current president of the AFL-CIO states that he visits the White House several times a week and talks to BHO or a member of his administration every day. While that may be a slight exaggeration the White House records list him as having been there 46 times in 2 years!

   Why is the President in collusion with these Socialist agitators, you ask? They own him, that’s why! Labor Unions in the US donated nearly $500 million to BHO’s 2008 campaign to buy the Presidency, almost 2/3 of all the funds he collected! Of the 712 organizations listed as exempt from Obamacare 171 plans are actual union run plans and these account for the largest numbers of workers exempted (United Federation of Teachers alone is 351,000 votes…er members). This does not consider those businesses given exemptions which are held in thrall by unions, thus increasing further the number of votes bought for 2012. The list from the HHS website is here: http://www.hhs.gov/ociio/regulations/approved_applications_for_waiver.html#state_mandated_policies  Note that the list is no longer (as of Jan 26) updated. 733 exemptions have been issued, 21 since they stopped posting.
   Private sector trade unions have driven the cost of American-made goods so high that almost every American industry has moved their operations at least in part overseas so that now so little of what we consume is made here and our trade deficit grows larger each day. Public sector unions now hold our nation hostage with threats of strikes and ever more expensive, taxpayer funded, ever more excessive pension plans. It has been almost a century since trade unions have performed any function save to line the pockets of their leaders and the politicians they buy. It is high time Americans say “Enough!” to these thugs and their “community organizer” puppet!
