If the fellow is not allowed to speak before an organization to which he pays dues and is a member.....
then he derserves a refund on 18 years of dues with interest.
Communists, Muslim fanatics and unions are all alike.
They are afraid of competition!

partly because they are viewed as a partisan arm of the Democratic Party.When the New York Times pleaded for a Democrat senator to start a filibuster on the Alito vote, John Kerry took the bait.
I think the NYT runs the left wing and the Dems, unions and other wackos dance the dance.
But liberal news organizations are losing money and downsizing every year.....I smell a little panic.
Americans are now smarter because of cable news and the internet.

Is this Union a part of the IAFF? The International Association of Firefighters? If so where is President Shitburger and his promises of equal treatment for Republicans.

Anyone who does not know that the vast majority of unions are simply a covert (sometimes not so covert) extension of the communist party is a damned fool.
What was a needed thing at one point in time has become an albatross around the neck of free societies everywhere. No wonder they have to infect government schools to plant the communist union seed in the fertile minds of our kids. Then they continue in the universities to spew their communist puke. No wonder they have to bash McCarthy. He was right.

My Union "Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen" has removed itself from the membership roll of the AFL-CIO. As did many others. Wonder why? I vote Republican and I served as a local union officer for years. Over half of my fellow officers were Republican also. By the way we are a "Teamsters" affiliate. Flame away!!!

Bob Salvatore, a local AFL-CIO official for four decades now, isn't about to apologize.
"We're not a public organization where we have to bring everybody in," he said.
He said the AFL-CIO's chief goal is to steer voters toward the March 7 Democratic primary to help former U.S. Rep. Ciro Rodriguez win back his Congressional District 28 seat. Hmm...now, correct me if I'm wrong, but did Bob Salvatore just admit to violating FEC rules, and possibly other rules along the lines of tge Beck decision?
Isn't a Union doing only One-Party advocacy a violation of CFR if it is near election time too?

A little off topic but relates to mindset of Union reps. I'm retired from a large fire dept. and was a union member my whole career for medical ins.
Shortly after the Clinton fiasco I called my union rep. on a retirement matter. When finished he asked me how I thought our boy was doing. I asked who that would be and he said Bill Clinton. I said I think he's an a-hole and a disgrace as our president. He said why, because of the Monica thing, we all go off the reservation from time to time and he only lied protect his family. I said he might be speaking for himself but he sure wasn't speaking for me.
This guy was vice pres. of our local at the time and later became pres. Just goes to show the extent of support for the Dims, no matter the actions of the party heads.
