This is an organization that spent jillions of dollars to get Obama elected twice.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Obama said that Obamacare was going to lower healthcare costs.

Why would Obama's biggest supporters pass an official resolution stating that Obama's singular legislative achievement was going to do the exact opposite of what Obama said it was goiung to do? Did the AFL-CIO suddenly become a bunch of racists? Or is it that Obama doesn't know what he's doing?

I think the AFL-CIO members don't know what they are doing . All election season I see these dopes,thinking they are smarter then others, holding election signs on overpasses etc.
It's laughable and infuriating at the same time.

They know enough to know that they got bamboiozled on this one.

Not even our Dear Leader can cover more people, cover things that weren't covered before, and bring costs down. It can't be done.

None of them will admit it though. Obama came highly recommended by the Chicago unions.. They told everyone he was easy to talk to, worker friendly, and got things done for the middle class. The unions first choice was Hillary, but that ship sailed and everyone wanted to make a different kind of history I guess...

The unions will never ever back a republican as a whole, because they care little about the middle class..

That's why they are called "campaign promises", because once you lie to get the vote and win, you effectively tell the public to p*ss-off.

That's when the spin-doctoring takes over and they try to make you believe that you are are responsible for your healthcare woes.

Boy, the way things are heading nowadays, I'll have to start looking to change my name to something from south of the border so I can start getting all those freebies we're paying for!

Once you are hooked on those freebies FT, you'll vote for anyone who offers to continue them no matter what the cost to the country.
What's with the Obama phone, that is a necessity for live?
