President Obama has taken a hard line on the Wisconsin union debate, throwing his lot in with the anti-democracy crowd. One thing to consider, as the public employee unions and the depleted state budget forces battle over reducing deficits, is whose side you are on. Whose morals fit into your ethical make-up? Are you someone who believes in hard work and personal achievement, or are you looking for a handout from those who would go to any length to destroy people in an effort to increase their own political clout? If you are throwing in with Richard Trumka and the unions, you should know just who this Obama advisor is and the types of things he has done in the name of workers rights. Below is a video detailing some of the events from the Peabody Coal strike in that Trumka helped organize in 1993, not to help workers but rather to create an environment where all workers would be forced to pay union dues in order to work. At least we might be comforted to know that Richrad Trumka is just a Union hack and really has no greater influence than that of a labor agitator. If only that were true; two of Obamas closest advisors seem to be the SEIUs Daniel Stern and AFL-CIO president Trumka. The video below illustrates the level of influence that Trumka has; he speaks with the White House daily, where some of Obamas own cabinet members have not spoken to the President in two years. Imagine if the CEO of Wal-Mart, or Exxon mobile, or even Google, was in contact with the Bush White House on a daily basis. Even conservatives would find it outrageous that someone outside of the government would have so much influence on the President. And here is some fresh Union thuggary from yesterday outside of the Freedom Works office.
Sorry I still cant get the hang of posting the videos. In order they are

Trumpka - Head tapeworm.
America needs a good old fashioned doggie butt drag to scrape off the unionista parasites.
Outstanding imagery.
Trumka is a crook and should have been thrown in jail years ago. By the way, one of his predessors as AFL/CIO President for 25 years, George Meany said the idea of “Government Employee Unions was ridiculous”. Of course, that was beforw they became the Bank for Dem. Candidates.

—he represents the Marxist takeover of the AFL-CIO from the American wing, which was exemplified by George Meany and Lane Kirkland-—
LOL I think you’re right!
UMW thug Trumka says he worked as a miner in 1968. Four years later he received a BS degree and went on the be a lawyer. How do you head a mineworker union without having been a miner?
What on earth was Trumka doing in Davos at that last bigwig summit. Does he negotiate for the hotel help there?
i had a fame-out with a relative over the prank call to the WI Gov by a fake Koch Bro. the relative says it just shows how in bed the right is with the Koch brothers that he took the call. I said, so in bed with them that he didn’t even know he wasn’t talking to a Koch brother? Then i told him about Dick Trumpka’s daily contact with this administration and he said he didn’t want to hear any more republican lies from me. I said, I respect your accomplishments as a person, but not your politics. Your opinions generally are above the fold headline re-treads from the NYT’s, they are not well thought out, researched or articulated. He did not like that.

look at that guy Trumka) I betcha he has Obstructive Sleep Apnea he has the 19 inch neck double chin and he is at least 100 pounds overweight. he is a walking time bomb.
Kinda resembles NFL great Alex karras
