Bottom line here comes down to one fundamental and not so subtle issue. What we dealing with is simply an idealogical fight. Its huge and the winner will determine our destiny. Do we want a government/union controlled economy or do we want pro business growth economy.

As a side note what concerns me about Jimmy Hoffa's statements is that they are coming from the head of an organization that has been reputed to be mob connected or controlled and with a history of violence. So some may take his threats literally. Jimmy Hoffa is also incorrect in that the Tea Party isn't wishing Obama's failure. On the contrary they have been fighting for issues that will help the economy grow and hence aid Obama
