Trumka To Obama: “Go To The Mat” For Labor Tonight. Trumka says if we stop giving the jobless their unemployment insurance (U.I.), or unemployment benefits, then his unemployed union thugs may attack him it will hurt the economy. In the Godfather the Mafia dudes said they “were going to the mattresses” when they were at war. Considering Jimmy Hoffa’s recent comments it seems like a fitting comparison to us.

Neither Hoffa or Trumpka have the balls or back bone to go to the mat. They only talk the talk but wont walk the walk. At least old man Hoffa and John L Lewis got in there and did battle with their members.
Where is the civility and the calmer tone? That's right, its only for us racist SOB Tea Party Members. At least we dont have to pay union dues that are spent on designer suits and whores and corrupt politicians. I must apolgize to the whores for lumping them in with the politicains.
Problem is when obama '' goes to the mat '' for unions it's the taxpayer who gets screwed
I for idiots? I refer to those who keep putting the same trash back in office election after election.
The only thing transparent about this administration is its desire to keeping spending other peoples' money.
Trumka to Obama: Keep making those payments are we won't have to bust your kneecaps
Obama: I've got a "lay-ser" (quoting with fingertips)-like focus on jobs, lets get people back to work!!
Trumka: so long as their Union jobs
Obama: Of course sir, just keep the votes coming
Looks like the only difference in the crony capitalism going on in Washington is that the folks reaping the benefits have (D) after their name instead of an (R)....
And we should all put (I) after our name.
