He was absent from the struggles of cops, firefighters and teachers in Wisconsin and in my opinion has very little interest in helping working people in general. Yes Romney is worse but not by much.

Collective bargaining rights, benefits are being attacked in many states. Obama remains silent. Minimum rage hike? Employee Free choice Act? The President refuses to use the "bully pulpit" to stand up for workers.

but you do realize you completely contradicted yourself. The OP is about him using the "bully pulpit" to stand up for workers. You said he "Talks the talk" in a sarcastic manner diminishing his use of the "bully pulpit". Now 2 posts later you claim he's being silent and refusing to use the "bully pulpit".

You're agenda is clear "Teamster" Jeff. Have a nice day.

"Talks the talk" regarding Wisconsin. Silent regarding overall GOP attacks on workers. Your agenda is clear....."Don't criticise Obama or I will dismiss you."

FYI. I voted for Obama and due to a lack of alternatives will probably do so again. Support all his policies? Does anyone support all his policies?

they can block the poster from this group because he clearly is not supporting Obama and this is a safe haven. As for the posts themselves it is up to the juries if y'all alert on them.

ETA - I looked at the front page and y'all have a bunch of hosts including the OP.
