He also said he thinks EFCA will be back on the floor by the end of the year.

SUMMARY: “70% of the US economy is consumer-driven, therefore we must allow union thugs to unionize everyone.”

“Employee Free Choice Act”. Another example of “Whatever the RATS call it, figure that it really means the exact opposite”.

Card Check will be one more nail in the coffin of the U.S. economy.

Keep yapping, Dick. You’re just giving Republicans and Independents yet another reason to be certain they vote on Nov. 2. After seeing how health reform was handled, it’s quite clear this Democrat Congress is oblivious to the public’s wishes or public interest and cannot be trusted not to jam through Card-Check and/or other pieces of damaging legislation during the lame duck session.

Well if your dumb enough to belong to a union you are dumb enough to believe Card Check is better than a secret ballot.
I would love to see these same union thugs bitch if someone was looking over their shoulder at their polling place while they voted for their favorite communist.

Bring the IVs, catheters, an phone books to read out loud on the Senate floor. If the Republicans don't filibuster every single thing the Dems try to do between November and January then there is no reason to keep the Whigs mark II in 2012 either.

Demwits realize they will get their heads handed to them come November election. They will have a brief interlude before Republicans are there in strength. Look for them to break every rule, law, principle, and precedent to achieve their impure goals.

Vincent Curatola (Johnny Sack from the Sopranos) had
a great commercial opposing the card check.

Beginning Labor Day, look for an all out push by unions to promulgate card check. They fear imposition of Right to Work legislation, albeit, stalled for years now. In fact last state to go RTW was Oklahoma in 2001.
The law be damned with this bunch. Obi and his get will cram card check down our throats, just as they did health care. All Dems and a few RINO’s is all it will take, and they know it...
