What digusts is the AFSME or whatever. These dues come from the taxpayer. As a taxpayer I have a problem with any of my money going to the campaigns of commie Obama and the likes of Nancy Pelosi. This is one thing the GOP can do if it ever gets into to power again is to ban this from happening. The American people really do not realize what is going on.
