ABC News reports the reason for the conference:

“Claiming they needed to learn how to reduce stress because of a growing number of death threats being made against them, nearly 700 executives from the Social Security Administration (SSA) gathered for a lavish three-day conference in Phoenix, AZ last week, costing taxpayers about $700,000.”

Umm… If they’re being threatened it’s probably because people are angry. How does this make people less angry?

Question: How does this help Obama?

Answer: It doesn’t.
