Well played, Mr. President. Last week, prior to the big AFL-CIO convention in Los Angeles, President Obama personally spoke to AFL-CIO chief Richard Trumka, asking him to water down several anti-Obamacare resolutions that union leaders were planning to pass there. Trumka obliged, keeping calls to repeal Obamacare out of the official AFL-CIO resolution on the health law. Then, on Friday evening, after the convention was over, the Obama administration revealed that it would ignore unions’ demands to subsidize their members using Obamacare. As a result, some unions fear that they will wither away. “I guarantee you by your next convention four years from now, you won’t meet a quarter of this room,” said Joseph Nigro, president of the Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Union. “We won’t be here.” Unions were seeking special treatment under Obamacare
Obama calling congress drama queens??? That's a laugh, he is the drama queen.
It reminds me of the recent tweet by Alan Bauer communications chair of the Democratic party in Sacramento to Ted Cruz's aide after she praised Congress for voting to defund obamacare. "I hope your kids die from debilitating painful and incurable diseases" Who says this kind of thing and thinks it's okay? Regardless of ones position on an issue. What happened to intellectual debating? This is what results when emotion vs intellect takes control. Its that kind of 'short fuse' behavior that had no place in a civilized society let alone in a political landscape.
