From Micheal O'Brien at The Hill:
The AFL-CIO is planning one of the largest state rallies in favor of "card check" legislation on Saturday in the home state of one of organized labor's frequent targets: Wal-Mart,
The union is expecting 1,000 attendees at a rally in Little Rock, Ark. on Saturday, in what the AFL-CIO says is one of the biggest non-D.C. events to date in support of the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA). This would just be another ridiculous union rally in another ridiculous union location at a ridiculous union expense, except for one thing. It's being attended by none other than Richard Trumka, Secretary-Treasurer of the AFL-CIO, and grand mal extortionist.
Trumka has been investigated for illegal union campaign fundraising practices, violated AFL-CIO rules by refusing to disclose where $150,000 worth of union dues went, and been a longtime advisor to Al Gore, despite the warnings from Charles LaBella, former chief Of the Justice Department’s campaign finance task force that investigated Trumka:
If I were advising a candidate, I would advise him or her very strongly that this is not someone you want to embrace. Sounds like a very responsible way of bringing unneeded pressure on a company that should be credited with infusing over 1 billion of capital investment into the U.S. since 2005. Too bad conservatives are too busy actually working to go and counter-protest this thing.

No ,Kayann is a commie shill,and a stupid shrill one at that. |
|
Please tell me what ethics charges stuck to Sarah Palin?
Card check is NOT good, it is Soviet-style elections. TH "shills for corporations". Does that make you a union shill? |

Good comeback to kayann. Little, measly worker bees indeed!
"Card check" is not designed to help workers, it is designed to help unions. As the daughter of a Teamster, I think it is important to point out once again that this WILL lead to intimidation of workers by union operatives. Secret, anonymous voting protects workers from union harassment.
kayann, here is a parallel, albeit not a perfect one. Suppose the Republican party, wanting to get back into power, issued cards to Democrats and Independents to sign saying they favor Republican government, harassed them into signing the cards and used that to throw out the current administration without an election. I don't think you would approve of that type of coercion by Republican politicians, why would you approve of it by unions? |

...about The People. She sees them as "little, measly worker bees." Of course that means that her lord and master OMG ("Obama My God") must use his omniscient powers to "save" these poor little subhuman bees. He must dictate to them their energy usage to "save" the planet. He must dictate to them what their health care must be to "save" them from the evil practitioners. He must convert the whole country to "save" it so foreign extremists will begin to like us.
Lefties like Kayanal have become such ugly Americans - extremist religionists of the worst kind since the days of the Inquisition. And yet, they are so ignorant. |

Arch says Vlad is a liar!! Every member of this forum should always remember that when the libtard Vladimir Estrogan calls you a liar, that he himself has been nailed right here on townhall in a colossal lie by good old Arch walking in the footsteps of a veteran genius named Roy Rogers. You cannot believe anything Vlad posts |

It sounds like Trumka is in the same ranks as Palin in regard to ethics charges, but which ones were proven, Jillian? Tell us what charges stuck and you might have an issue - MIGHT have an issue.
The bottom line here is that Townhall shills can't let the indoctrinated think, even remotely, that the employee free choice act is a decent cause. Why? Because the shills are doing time for big corporation money, that's why. Do you really think that these folks at TH are looking out for the little, measly worker bees? Think again. |
