The Senate's decisive defeat of confirmation of radical labor lawyer Craig Becker is the first tangible result of the Massachusetts Miracle, which made Scott Brown the 41st Republican in the U.S. Senate. Two red-state Democrats also voted not to proceed toward a vote on President Obama's nomination of Becker to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
Becker is a top lawyer for the Service Employees International Union, which spent $60 million to elect Obama. SEIU's boss, Andy Stern, was the most frequent visitor to Obama's White House last year.

The Problem Is Government Unions
Look, there is a time and a place for everything, there was a time for John Lewis. I remember my Father taking about him and the unions, Papa was a very rational attorney. When i went to work for the telephone company, i wasn't asked, I was told x-money would be deduced for union dues. To me, now, the unions are bullies but with President Obama;s open door policy to them, we are being hurt. Wth President Obama's promise to use executive privilege to make his appointees, we are in a very big world of hurt.
I guess we could pray five times a day.
