I understand Obama's support for the Unions in general, and I really dislike it! Nothing here for me to "win" one way or the other. I just see this as yet another item that has been scratched of the health reform bill. While some think we could scratch more or even kill it all together, I feel like we have scratched off to much already. And NOW the freakin' Unions get a deal too?
OK, Obama screwed that part up, but I'm still pissed at the Unions!
Such is the way things get done during negotiations. No one "wins", both sides take a hit until everyone is "mostly" OK with it.
