Obama holds another secret mtg with AFLCIO's Trumka
The Daily Caller ^ | August 3, 2011 | Matthew Boyle

President Barack Obama met behind closed doors with labor union bosses from the AFL-CIO on Tuesday morning.

It’s unclear what happened in the closed-door meeting, which Obama fit into his schedule before the smoke began settling after the debt ceiling deal. Spokespeople for the Obama administration have not responded to The Daily Caller’s requests comment on what specifically was talked about with the union bosses, including AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka.

There’s so much fat inside Trumka’s head that he looks like a pimple ready to pop. He better lay off the sausages.

If we all know about it, it’s not really “secret,” right?

More like “sneaky.”

Trumka’s already trying to find out how much of the new $2.4 trillion debt money is going to get funneled into his unions.

These meetings are about one and only one thing. How to turn back Wisconsin. Obama has to have Wisconsin back to jump off to the other rust belt states.

They are going to steal Wisconsin, then the unions are going to paralyze the state GOP with lawsuits and other distractions while they put their plan for 2012 in place.

This is the Rats MO. They spent 8 years paralyzing the DOJ so there was no one to investigate the cheating. This is why Gunrunner needs to be publicized every single day. We have to tie up Holder and the administration so they cannot focus on cheating.

He probably asked Trumpka where he should make stops on his up coming Midwest Bus tour and told Trumpka to make sure the Union Thugs come out in force! Obama needs his ego stroked by cheering and adoring crowds after the last few weeks.

Trumka and Daley both are the mob’s mouth pieces. I surmise they tell Obozo what the mob expects next to keep a steady flow of tax dollars going into their pockets. Example; the GW Bush admin had 238 limousines, the Obozo upped his to 383 at the annual purchase and maintenance costs of 4.6 million dollars for each limousine. That equates to approx $1.7+ billion annually. How much of that money do you think the mob gets or goes to the democrat party? No one on the outside knows the answer but the cost of 4.6 million a year for a government car has to be a scam and that is just one issue that has come to light. p>

Yep, and now they know they’ve got new funds to do it.

O’jadd just made the biggie statement about roads and bridges...I feel a stimulus coming on big time with money flowing into the union pockets.

Smear all they want ,,, Beck is one of the most powerful radio and TV personalities in this country ,, doing a job most most radio and TV folks would scared to produce . Beck is the modern day Paul Revere delivering the warning to the American people . If egos get stepped upon it’s a small price to pay . God bless Glenn Beck and keep him and his family safe .

Liberals use what ever means available to produce their vile propaganda and justify it as what ever it takes to win is acceptable . They could care less who gets stepped on in the end .
