Is there any way to inform the union thugs to get lost? That when unbammy went to Washington DC he did not take the unions along?

“untenable”

This is the left’s specialty....the MSM/Hollywood/Dnc/Academia.

When this war room unites in a relentless cause...our Rightwing leaders, candidates, nominees, Presidents, officeholders, talk show hosts, and our own media.....DIE a slow death.

Does any union represent their members anymore?

They don’t have many members any more. That is why they are looking at recruiting the illegal alien workforce.

Isn’t this just another way of saying “we need a civilian security force just as well-funded as our military.”?

Liberals are fleeing Arizona.
Illegals are fleeing Arizona.
Dopers and dealers are fleeing Arizona.
Alternate lifestyle types are fleeing Arizona.
Union thugs are fleeing Arizona.

The America of our youth is returning to Arizona.
Come and join us. Americans are welcome here.

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Wade Henderson, president of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights

The enemy within.

These guys think they can keep up the assault on real Americans without consequence.

Time of reckoning is drawing near.

The Justice Department isn't always going to be run by Holder.

And if some other states start to stand with Arizona...well..this might turn into a bigger mess than anyone desired.

It sounds like the AFL-CIO thugs want The One to expel states from the Union. They're sure he can find the power somewhere.

While he's at it, maybe this would be a good testing ground for his "heavily armed civilian defense force" as he pulls out the Border Patrol, FBI, ICE, TSA, and all those other federal agencies. They'd avoid the border, because there's no real problem with the border, except for Arizonans.

The Brown Shirts would be able to continue collecting taxes after the IRS is pulled out since they are, after all, heavily armed. They just need representation by the AFL-CIO and they'll be ready to roll.

Not expel. Intervene.

Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Back in 1964, black civil rights leaders asked Lyndon Johnson to invoke Article IV, Section 4 to execute a federal military takeover of the southern states due to the semi-official state terrorism of black folks run by the Klan. (It was hard to tell where local law enforcement ended and the Klan began in much of the South.) With a presidential election just months away, Johnson decided not to open that can of worms. He told the civil rights leaders the Constitution didn't give him that authority, even though it did.

The double-edged sword in Article IV, Section 4 is "shall protect each of them against invasion," which is exactly what is happening, although in this case the invasion is endorsed by both parties in DC for different reasons. It might be tempting for Obama to invoke Article IV, Section 4 against Arizona, but those words would blow up in his face if he tried.

Oh yea, its time for the 40 percent of the union members that lean conservative to cut themselves loose from the AFL-CIO.

Will Arizona residents be able to cut their Federal income tax payments proportionally to the lack of Federal support?

Organizations like this must be shunned. They deserve precisely what they are recommending. If we are to overcome the leftist assault on our culture we must find effective ways to cut them off. They must be isolated and marginalized. Same goes for Obama.

AFL-CIO, ACLU, La Raza, Democrats and all others who are against Arizona’s law... Exactly how is this law racist? Which race is being profiled? Specifically what civil right is being violated?

I have asked these questions numerous times and haven’t gotten an answer yet, with one exception...

One guys says “the Hispanic race,” which he then explained to me were the “non-white people.” This man is so ignorant he thinks “Hispanic” is a race, and that there are no white Hispanics.
