So…Joe Donnelly was on the local radio station getting free air time, er I mean, informing the public…

…when he was laying into President Obama for the executive order to force the minimum wage to $10.10 for federal workers.

Donnelly casually mentions that George W. Bush did this (and so did several other presidents, including Reagan and Clinton, who were neck and neck with executive orders). More here on Mike Pence (now Indiana’s governor) who thinks executive orders are just fine for George W. Bush.

Donnelly stated that President Obama “should have tried to work with us…and he jumped the gun…”

bwahahahahahaha

Um, he has tried to work with Congress.  Members of Congress have had a secret agreement to deliberately thwart Obama and block nominees, legislation, etc.

They have blocked raising the minimum wage for as long as I can remember.  While they complain that they need an automatic pay raise every year, Congress looks the other way while people go hungry, lose their homes, go without medical care, and live under constant stress of deciding whether to pay the light bill, mortgage, heat bill, or put food on the table.

You might remember Donnelly phrased cutting food stamps as “savings” when on the radio just before Thanksgiving….absolutely callous while ignoring waste and fraud and bloated budgets in other areas, such as Defense spending.
