Union Thugs for Obama

Does Barack Obama Condone SEIU’s Violent and Stalking Tactics?

The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) has been using violent and stalking tactics to win a union fight with the California Nurses Association. In fact, a restraining order has been issued by a California judge against them.

The dispute flared again at a labor conference in Dearborn, Mich., on Saturday, when SEIU protesters attempted to gain access to a ballroom where Rose Ann DeMoro, executive director of the nurses association, had been expected to speak. Several people were injured in a scuffle, including a 68-year-old woman who fell after being pushed.

DeMoro accused SEIU members and staff last week of stalking nurses association board members at their homes, looking through windows and shouting.

SEIU spokeswoman Lynda Tran said union organizers have been driving a nurse and respiratory therapist to board members’ homes to express their disapproval of the association’s tactics in Ohio last month.

So, Barack Obama takes money for his Presidential campaign from an organization who uses violence and intimidation to get their way. Flap calls on Obama to either reject the SEIU’s thug-like tactics and violence or to refuse their ads and money.

With friends like these, who needs enemies?

What is it about Obama that Attracts Hamas, Communists, and Domestic Terrorists?

In the 1990s, it was often noted that a great many of Bill Clinton's friends were either dead or in jail.  Similarly, Barack Obama seems to curry favor with some very questionable characters ... 

Granted, in some cases Obama disavows them (he sort of did this with Rev. Wright's comments).  In other cases, he has not sought their endorsement (such as anti-semite Louis Farrakhan) --  but ultimately, people have to wonder what it is about Obama that attracts the support of Hamas, Communists, and domestic terrorists to him.

So why do all these people like Obama?  Is it that they think he's amenable to their agenda?  Or do they just see him as "green" and inexperienced and malleable? 

The question is:  Do Americans want someone who -- at best -- is obviously viewed as so naive and easily influenced running the show, really?

Gateway Pundit has more coverage of the SEIU's violent tactics at an RN dinner in Michigan.

7 busloads of SEIU members and Obama supporters busted into a nurses association dinner in Michigan last weekend. They chanted and banged their fists against the doors outside the event until one of their members let them in.  The doors had apparently been opened from inside by SEIU staffers attending the conference.





The SEIU members then trampled over people and injured several of the attendees. The nurses had to flee the area and run down the service hallway for their own safety. When the nurses went back they could see the SEIU members throwing punches and hitting people with their signs. The RN's treated their injured friends on the floor until ambulances arrived.

The nurses are now filing a complaint against the SEIU.
