Obama speech outline:

Straw man. Straw man. Lie. Solipsism. Non sequitur. lie.

Abraham Lincoln said:

"You can fool all of the people some of the time, and you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."

0bama just needs to fool enough of the people one more time...

Thanks Shermy,

I’m glad there is someone that I didn’t piss off! You must have had to work for a living :).

I hope you did not think that I was a union supporter. I believe that they all have their roots in communism. That said, there was a time up to the not too distance past when some businesses put profits ahead of working conditions and safety. The fear of having a union voted in often helped improve working conditions tremendously.

In my own shop I paid area scale, but I also expected top hands for top dollar. Generally it all worked out, and I still have some of those men calling from time to time to see if we have work. Regrettably, there is nothing to offer them now.
