Fed employees under the bus?

"President Obama urged Congress Monday to limit cost-of-living pay raises to 2% for 1.3 million federal employees in 2010, extending an income squeeze that has hit private workers and threatens Social Security recipients and even 401(k) investors."

And, they're talking about taxing their health insurance benefits.

Remind me - - why did the public employees unions back Obama?
