No Debate: Big Labor Buys The Dems!

Posted by on 8/1/2007

The leading Democratic presidential candidates are ready to descend on Chicago next week for a union-hosted event. It’s billed as a debate, but it will be little more than an auction to see which politician can be the first to sell out workers rights and basic economic principles. Get the facts and help the Center for Union Facts educate the public!

One union boss bragged to The New York Times on July 31 that the Democratic candidates are Big Labor’s “field of dreams.” That’s why union bosses say in 2008 they will break every political donation record ever set – so they can replace President Bush with a labor lackey.

What You May Not Know:

What do union bosses want for their (members’) money?

  • Union bosses want politicians to kill workplace democracy. They have made support of the misnamed Employee Free Choice Act their top legislative priority. Unfortunately for working Americans, the law would steal the right to a secret ballot vote when employees decide whether to join a union. Union bosses are confident that they could double their membership and their political power if they can pass this anti-democratic legislation.
  • Union bosses want politicians to kill free trade. Labor leaders are already busy scuttling trade deals that keep America’s economy vibrant and keep costs down for working Americans.
  • Union Bosses want politicians to kill transparency of union member money. Congress will soon make a final decision on whether to slash funding for a Department of Labor office that investigates mismanagement and embezzlement of union funds. Why? Because union bosses don’t want the world to see how they spend their members’ money.

      don’t you mean big Mexican enslavement labor? both parties like the ideals of the third world way of life for the working ass and love its people for being nothing but fools.
      “Hell people”, the global ideas of one world is not coming but is here and now, most people would follow castro or hitler or bush or hillary for a dollar and most of you are going right to hell and have it coming.

      The unions of today are not unions but slavery camps and most union works are nothing but sheeple following nothing thinking nothing and knowing nothing.

      vote for Ron Paul and stop the coming civil/race war.:((;)

      Democrites are all for choice when it comes to abortion. But for anything else that threatens their interests, like choices for Union workers, the Democrites are the most repressive fascists this country has ever seen.
