How can Obama claim to be fiscally responsible by selecting Andy Stern, the President of the SEIU (thugs) to serve on The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform?
If I wasn’t laughing and pointing at a picture of Obama right now……I would possibly consider that Obama is truly “in bed” with the Unions.
How can Obama even think that the American people actually will agree with his fiscal responsiblity claims now? The Unions have already bankrupted California……

SEIU’s Andy Stern ‘Honored’ to Serve on Obama’s National Debt Commission
February 26, 2010
Today, SEIU President Andy Stern was chosen by President Obama as one of his six choices to serve on a bipartisan commission to recommend ways to reduce the national debt. The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform is designed to confront the nation’s growing debt and make recommendations for balancing the budget by 2015. The panel will consist of 18 members: eight Republicans and 10 Democrats.
Stern put out a statement today on his appointment to the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility:
“I am honored to have been asked to serve on the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and thank President Obama for ensuring that the voice of ordinary working Americans will be heard.
“I have talked to thousands of our members, many low-wage workers, who have to make hard choices everyday to make ends meet, while never losing sight of their dreams — to provide a more prosperous future for their families. They also want and expect their government to make the right choices: to restore our economic health, make smart long-term investments, create a fiscally sound, and fair economic system that rewards hard work and allows their children and grandchildren to live a better life than their parents.
“And they expect that, in times of need, the critical safety nets that served their grandparents and parents will be secure both for themselves and future generations.
“We have an administration that understands that the path from this crisis to long term economic health doesn’t lead backwards toward the failed policies of the past. A vision that is grounded, first and foremost, in the acknowledgment that the foundation of a strong economy is the creation of good jobs, with decent wages, and a vibrant middle class.
“In the short term, as millions of Americans struggle to find work, that means continuing to invest in creating jobs and boosting growth. In the long term, it means beginning a new dialogue about how we fund vital government programs, while at the same time restoring long-term fiscal discipline and defining a clear, progressive vision for our nation’s future.
“We must take advantage of this critical moment to have a new 21st century conversation that truly involves the American people and breaks out of the narrow debates that dominate our political discourse in Washington.”
“As a country, like so many families, we are faced with difficult choices about how we are going to build a future for our kids and their grandkids, and about how we pass on the American dream and not America’s debt.”

======================================================
Our children and grandchildren have already been strapped by the OBAMA fiscal policies over this past year.
Is Andy Stern as narcisstic as Obama? I am beginning to believe so…….
WHAT is Stern’s relationship with Obama? 22+ visits from January to June 2009……
Progressives really do think the American people are stupid.
To the Progressives:
You have awoken a Sleeping Giant and the resounding sound of “He!! No” will be heard in reverberation in November 2010 and 2012.
