Hoffa Declares War on GOP; Obama Approves

Real Clear Politics has an article on a video on what was said the day before yesterday:

Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa had some profane, combative words for Republicans while warming up the crowd for President Obama in Detroit, Michigan on Monday.

"We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. And you know, there is only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is we like a good fight. And you know what? They've got a war, they got a war with us and there's only going to be one winner. It's going to be the workers of Michigan, and America. We're going to win that war," Jimmy Hoffa said to a heavily union crowd.

"President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let's take these son of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong," Hoffa added.

When he took the stage, President Obama said he was "proud" of Jimmy Hoffa and other labor leaders.

UPDATE: Presidential candidate Herman Cain wastes no time striking back at Hoffa's belligerent comments. In a Daily Caller article he says, "They have no plan, they have no ideas."
