We also knew how the public service unions wash the money sluiced off to them by Democrat pols with juicy public service union contracts. The union bosses, after skimming a generous portion for themselves, funnel a significant part of the washed money back to the Democrat politicians who acted as an ATM machine at the beginning of this process for the unions.
All of this occurs, according to the evidence of the voting pattern in Wisconsin, against the will of a sizable minority of the union rank and file. In fact, the interests of the private union work and file are not in alignment with the interests of the public service union rank-and-file. But the whole purpose of the apparatus in the money washing merry-go-round is to isolate the process from transparency and from democratic control by the rank-and-file.
The analogy that pops into my mind is the European Union which is an entity designed to insulate the whole governing process from democratic control.
If one wonders why there is such ruthless discipline up and down the line of Democrat officeholders, consider how the funding of Democrat political campaigns is controlled by a central Soviet. We see a miniature of this described in this article but the entire apparatus operates basically on the same principles, according to David Horowitz.
This is one reason why the Democrat party speaks with unanimity on given issues in the face of all logic and contrary to the general will. Why did no Democrat Senator fail to deliver his vote for Obama care? Consider his future if he had not.
When one of the America's great political parties begins to behave like the Nazis or the Bolsheviks it puts the nation in gravest peril. It has already smothered half of our democracy.
