Nancy Pelosi and labor unions were strong backers of Obamacare, but now it appears an inordinate amount of businesses in Nancy's district, and over a half million union worders are exempt from the democrats' legislation.

It seems that Pelosi and the unions think Obamacare is GREAT,...for everyone except them.........

The community organizer and union thugs are hand-in-hand.

This is despicable. There should have been no waivers allowed, and the revolt against DC's overreach would have been 10 fold what it has been if waivers were not allowed.

But waiving supporters like the SEIU is beyond revolting.

"By and large, unions backed the health care overhaul, a law from which nearly a half million of their workers are now exempt."


You scratch my back, I'll scratch your back. Makes me want to vomit.

"Oh but it's only for 2 years." Well if this were so great that the unions backed it 1000% then why are they putting it off for 2 years ? Why not give everyone that 2 years ?

When the administration got unions behind the legislation, it made it much easier to pass. Now it is payback time for the unions and Obama is granting waivers to unions without question.

An important statistic is included in the article,...the number of waivers for business v. number of waivers for unions.

The community organizer is working the pattern quite well.
