Obama Cabinet Official Says It’s A Good Thing Justice Scalia Died

It’s a good thing for labor unions that Antonin Scalia died earlier this year, Tom Perez, President Obama’s Labor Secretary, said on Thursday.

Perez, a progressive whom Hillary Clinton considered choosing as her running mate, was answering questions during a session at the Washington Ideas Forum when he was asked about strategies to increase labor union membership.

“Well, I think you have all these — there’s an unmitigated assault on labor unions across a number of states and there was a case that went before the Supreme Court recently, and frankly if Justice Scalia had not passed away it would have really made it very difficult for public sector labor unions to organize and that would have been one step in a very transparent and well-choreographed set of objectives from folks on the far right to eviscerate the labor movement,” Perez told the audience.

And just as soon as they get the chance to do it legally, they are going to make dead Conservatives out of the remaining live Conservatives I do not know how they [Liberals] could express it any plainer to make Conservatives understand.

Until the jackass party rules, it is a war. They are at war. Plain and simple. Yet the RINOs & GOP continue to reach out and seek to find commonality when and where they will never be any. It is WAR.

Is it me or does the democratic party control most of the federal government bureaucracy? Don’t we have TWO parties? What has happened to the republicans? The democrats use the immigration department, veterans administration, department of education and other bureaucracies to get control of everything they can get their hands on. Bipartisanship is not in their vocabulary.

Tom Perez is REALLY evil!!!!

Public-sector unions are evil, too! And teachers’ unions have been hampering education for decades!! School choice (as proposed by Donald Trump) will break their stranglehold on our public schools!!!!

May Antonin Scalia’s Memory be Eternal!!!!
