Through all of the outrage and public disgust at the Chicago Teachers Union strike, one very prominent Chicago voice has been, for the most part, silent on the issue. Many believe it would be politically toxic for President Obama to touch the issue.
And Obama says nothing. RT @politico: Chicago teachers union to continue strike: http://t.co/Buu8xXUR

Obama won't touch this issue. “@foxnewsalert: BREAKING NEWS: Chicago to File Suit to Force End Teachers Strike http://t.co/AHxi4V7H”

Things are getting worse as the strike enters its second week.
Where do you stand Obama? –> “@BreakingNews: Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel says city will file lawsuit to force end of teachers strike – @AP”

In all likelihood, we will continue to hear nothing from Obama on this matter.
