Great job Ernie, keep the pressure on the politicians. If the mayor was the president, he would have been impeached by now.

I don't think so. The president hasn't been impeached  by now.  :wink_cheesy:

the President is Pro-UNION
Romney was as anti-UNION as you can get.

Obama's tax policies and extreme environmental regulations have cost and prevented the creation of many union jobs. He never showed up in Wisconsin though he promised to walk picket lines there. 35% of union workers voted for Romney. Many unions and the AFL-CIO have reduced or stopped donations to the democratic party in general, recognizing that what they say and what they do are two different things.

Aside from labor policies, there are many other reasons Obama should be impeached.

Buzz...while thats all true the Chicago Teachers went out on strike and came back to raises. I guess he truly takes care of his home city and workers. Which is also why we are being left out in the cold by the Dems. Yes...and while ....its against my political beliefs but in regards to work and having a political donation i do contribute to COPE every week so we can have a political hammer.

GMC...Buzz.....and Hognol....not saying my contribution is special...however Hognol....that is exactly my point. Why isnt Obama putting pressure on us ...we are workers earning a liveable wage. One step further 55 thousand a year IS NOT middle class money in NYCity.
