Sen. Harkin Promises Return to Card Check
Publius Forum ^ | 06/25/10 | Warner Todd Huston

The Hill is reporting that Iowa’s leading Democrat, Senator Tom Harkin, is promising that the lame-duck Senate will again take up Big Labor's favored Employee Free Choice Act, (EFCA), the famous card check act that is neither good for employees nor one that facilitates "free choice" of any kind.

Apparently, what's bad for the nation is easier to push when Democrats already feel that the 2010 election will erase their giant majorities in Congress so they want to launch a last ditch effort to sneak this through before the people can speak at the ballot box.

And isn't that just the thing, here? The people did speak in 2006 and 2008, after all. They spoke in favor of Democrats. Yet, even with all that support Harkin and his far left cronies couldn't lead their overwhelming majority to pass the jobs killing bill. Even their fellow Democrats were against it because they knew the voters stood against it.

Nothing is either too unpopular or too un-American for these criminal Democrats to try and shove it down out throats anyway.

Card check + 0bamacare + Out of control spending + High unemployment = Republican majorities in November.

It’s utterly amazing how this moron has been in Congress all these years. Doesn’t say much for the voters.

Why does Iowa keep electing the phony fighter pilot?

The man is an avowed socialist and he is constantly re-elected in mid America

I’m from Iowa and I didn’t vote for him! We’re not ALL corn-fed idiots, you know!
