Christie threatens...

Yawn, he's done, he should have dissolved by force all locals that interfered in any way with disaster relief and stated that the state would hold members collectively financially responsible.

That won’t keep the union goons from making sure the “scabs” have “accidents.”

So, it never happened. I should believe Christie, the union thugs instead of my lying eyes. There’s video of union thugs screaming “scabs” + “scum bags” at the guys from Alabama. OK, it didn’t happen, like a lot of things don’t happen in the Age of Obama. Right.

Was Christie holding Obama’s hand for support when he made the statement?

Are you sure Christie said that? It’s so muffled hard to understand anything he says with his face buried between obama’s buttocks.

Obama was going to win NJ anyway so it’s not like it’s Christie’s praise is going to change things.

I like that Christie showed a completely different attitude towards the President of the opposite party. It shows up Gov Blonco and Mayor Nagin to be the partisan interferes that they were post Katrina. I’ve already used this to beat up some libs. It will also go a long way for him getting elected governor again next year despite the vitriol he is going to get from the teacher and public unions. That’s a good thing for us long suffering NJ taxpayers. I don’t want him in a national role other than fundraising for Republican candidates which he does so well.

And as for the anti-union bravado on this thread, Chrisite is handling it the best that can be expected. Unilaterally ban the union, even temporarily? How? The cops are unions too and they’re a little busy right now to. Piss off the unions and you’ll get some very slow work. When you’re dealing with unions as an exec, you’re dealing with mob like mentality if not the outright mob. There has to be a balance. Maybe native New Jersey people just have a sense for it that doesn’t translate well in the rest of the county.

Shame to say if they did come in to help, not many, but there are a few who would make their life difficult. It’s the mentality, experienced it firsthand, sick.

“Christie threatens ‘Disaster Control Act’ order to guarantee nonunion utility workers can help restore NJ power”

Politicians love to bestow our God-given Constitutional Rights upon us as if they come from them.

All Christie needs to do, if he really cares, is prosecute the union leaders for denying free men their freedom to act to benefit their fellow man, not pass some “law” that underscores the rights free people already have from which they were endowed by their Creator.

We all, if we consider the Constitution, live in a “right to work” state.

They never should have been turned away in the first place. It needs to be fixed for good to allow them to help.

This is a great example of how the media helps democrats.

The original story was the unions would not allow non-union members to work. Well, that wasn’t quite right, but whose fault is it that the original story was wrong?

Then, we learned that the actual story was that the non-union workers were asked to sign union contracts. Well, that is still a bad thing, and kept the non-union workers from helping.

But, because it is a “different” story, Politifact is running around calling the original story “false”, and all the liberals are mocking conservatives for “lying” about the union deal.

It’s just like Benghazi. What we know now is still bad for Obama, but because it’s different than what Obama’s administration originally leaked out, the media keeps covering the “false narrative” of the right, even though we are just trying to keep up with the lies of the administration.
