In case you live under a rock and haven’t heard, Barack Obama turns 50 today. And, the place to be tonight is the Aragon. The party starts at 7:00. But don’t bother to show up if you’re a union member. The White House hired a non-union crew for the event tonight.
A confidential and trusted union source contacted me today to report that the crews called in to work Obama’s birthday bash are non-union. Union members are OUTRAGED that Obama would turn his back on them.
Curiously, my source added that the day rate is actually higher for the non-union members to do the work. It’s not a money issue. What gives?
Two-faced-ness on the part of an Illinois-bred politician?
