The federal government is attacking Texas

Quote from AAAintheBeltway:

The "obama doctrine" is all too plain. Lavish subsidies on unions, favored companies like GE and core democrat constituencies like illegal aliens, blacks and gays. Use the power of the federal government to attack those who oppose you or your allies, eg, Arizona, Texas, oil producers, Boeing.

And don't worry about the law or Constitution because there are enough corrupt leftwing judges around to approve most of it.

Whatever he did landed him in the White House.

I didn't argue it because I guess him bailing out GM might have help unions but overall Obama has been quiet in the Union fight and unions nationwide have complained about it.When Chris Christie,Wisconsin and other states are attacking unions Obama is no where to be found

I should have noted that Obama has done more for wall street,those who make over 250,000 a year,the military industrial complex,the health insurance industry and the pharmaceutical industry then he has for blacks,unions gays and GE.But thats AAA beltway arguing that Obama is a far left liberal nonsense as usual
 
Quote from 377OHMS:

They're going to shut down oil production in west Texas over a 3-inch lizard.

These are the same people who declared the Delta Smelt to be endangered and subsequently destroyed the agriculture industry in the San Joaquin Valley in California.

W.Texas supplies 20% of domestic oil consumption.

This amounts to another way to shutdown energy production in the United States. Reduce that nasty carbon footprint by eliminating agriculture and energy production.

Yesterday the Feds threatened to shutdown commercial airline flights to/from Texas because there was state legislation declaring TSA groping a felony.

Texas would make a fine little country. Maybe they should go in that direction.

I think TX is about the least unionized state in a nation with little unionization left.
 
And yet a recent poll here on ET showed that nearly half of the posters would vote Obama back into office. Something more is amiss.

Stiffed auto company creditors to prop up UAW, when they were the main reason for the companies' demise.

"Stimulus" bill was largely used to subsidize local governments so they wouldn't be forced to lay off highly paid union workers or do anything about their benefits.

Obama appointed a far left former SEIU union lawyer to be General Counsel of the NLRB. He brought a scary case to bar Boeing from operating an already constructed factory in SC because it was a right to work, ie no forced unionization, state.

Obama backed the legislation that would have done away with secret ballots in union organizing elections, opening workers to coercion from union goons.

Obama attacked wisconsin and its governor as unions basically engaged in an insurrection to try to intimidate the legislature into not passing reforms to collective bargaining for public employees.

I could go on, but the big items were obviously the auto bailout, which left the UAW basically unscathed, and the stimulus bill, which was a direct transfer from taxpayers to unionized government workers.

Obama is clearly far more dangerous than the usual dopey, reformer liberal. He is a charter member of the hard left, who wants to use the raw power of the federal government to force far-reaching changes on society that could not be achieved through legislation. He is very comfortable with the intimidation and bullyboy tactics of unions, and he is very dependent on their financial and manpower support. If your vision of a country you want to live in is repeated municipal strikes, union goons going on rampages and workers being forced to subsidize union bosses and the democrat party, he is your guy.

Yes, the Obama Thugocracy. That will be his legacy.

I'm hoping some independent-minded western state puts the judicial smackdown on this regime because it is becoming clear that the Republican Party is not up to the task.
