So you must be referring to the way the Unions really stuck it to Boeing in this article. You know, the part where they gave up their pensions in exchange for a 401k plan so they could keep their jobs.
Of course Union members were "strongly urged" to vote for Obama. Obama has their best interests in mind, and as a union, they tend to vote together, hence the term "union".
Why would a union member vote for a person who wants to get rid of unions? It don't make no damn sense.
