And you can bet that Obama’s thugs will be all behind this effort, seen and unseen.

Well, if “do overs” are allowed now, how about a “do over” on the last presidential election?

Prediction:

They will get their do-over.
The NRLB will impose Card Check rules.
The UAW will win.
They will try to sue Bob Corker.

United Auto Workers union cries ‘Mommy’ to Labor Relations Board for a re-vote at Tennessee VW

No one likes a sore loser, but the United Auto Workers doesn’t seem to care.

When two small groups of workers fought the union’s intervention, the United Auto Workers and the Volkswagen Group of America immediately took offense. In a prepared statement, Volkswagen officials said the National Right to Work Foundation and Southern Momentum were unwarranted in their attempts to counter the United Auto Workers’ appeal.

The union argued that the two groups lacked jurisdiction to intercede, since neither was a labor organization or a party to the election.

Since VW wanted the Union, then the Union’s stance is there should have been no campaigning against the referendum by anybody, not even workers who opposed the Union. That seems to be the rationale, and Obastard’s NLRB will probably find for the Union and call another election.

Why not just have Obama decide how the election should have gone?

The NLRB is heavily biased in favor of the union, so they will get their do-over. They will be given all the time they want to seed their propaganda and flip some votes in the meantime. Don’t know if VW is still expanding and hiring but they will assume that newer workers are more pro-union so they will delay the vote until more workers are hired.
