People saying this simply don't act like this is true! If you think it's over, there's no point criticizing the exact phraseology Obama uses

Guy who interprets, "The union's role is to make sure HR/management follows its own policies" as a threat is a very real genre in representation and I never feel sad seeing them get a plan
