Not surprising really, if you think where their dollars come from and will come from in even greater quantity in the future.

Do you think corporations like unions? Do you think they might wish they could get rid of them forever? Is there a strong drive to privatize education? Are there strong teacher unions?

Are pesky wages still too high, taking precious dollars away from CEOs and BODs?

Stand by for more, this is just the beginning.

Labor, don't be fooled by new efforts to "make nice". Keep on your path of starting a new, strong labor movement. We need it and the time is right. We have NEVER NEEDED IT MORE.

I don't have much against corporate unions, since they are their own worst enemies. It's the public unions that I detest. They hold everyone hostage when they strike.

1. None of this is surprising except its being ecouraged by a Dem admin
   
That is heartbreaking.

It's a sure sign that they have outlived their usefulness.

3. And to think how instrumental SEIU was in getting Obama elected
   
Bad move...

Heel boy. You know they'll back him in the next election.

The SEIU is the first union that needs to be busted! Their thuggery is blatant against the American people exercising their First Amendment Rights! The fact that the current Admin turns their back and allows this, is treason to my way of thinking.

Every Repub whether running for office or not, ought to put together a vid showing these criminals attacking American citizens and run it 24/7 until the 2012 election cycle is over!

The fact that our country is even letting this happen shows how far the left is entrenched and how gutless the Republican party has become!
I'm the guy your mother warned you about!

Here in Denver an SEIU flunky busted out the Dem party HQ and left flyers railing againt ObamaCare. The local Dem apparatchik was all over the news excoriating those darned violent, crazy Tea Baggers

Then the punk was busted and as soon as his ties to the Dems and SEIU came out she shut-up...for a few months. She's back to telling the edited version of the story.

HUH? I was told she just claimed to have a large clit.

It was this, after Blanche's primary victory:

Quote
"Lincoln was embraced by her colleagues on the Senate floor as a conquering general returning from war. Sen. Bob Menendez (N.J.), in charge of the Senate Democrats' campaign effort, gave her a hug and a kiss and said, "Now we just have to raise money." Sen. Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) held up two fists and said of her primary campaign: "Fighting Wall Street with one hand, unions with the other."
 

Chuck, Wall Street is one of your constituents.  Those filthy rich people pay an awful lot in taxes.
