Americans have a right to full employment, housing, health care, collective bargaining and protection against old age, sickness and unemployment, according to AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka.
Trumka says Big Labor intends to push both the Democratic Party and the GOP to adopt what he called The Second Bill of Rights at presidential nominating conventions this summer.
Americas Second Bill of Rights is a broad-based statement of what the American people need and what they deserve. If some of it sounds redundant, it is because we once took many of these rights for granted, Trumka said last Thursday at the National Press Club.

Isnt this what is bringing Europeans down right now..I know in Italy they they have somthing sumular and its a big fail. As for the UN. They are a corrupt organization and I would love to see a good investigation of them.

pillar of protections of the 1st and 2nd Amendments...
and where does mittens stand with a *bi-partisan* CONgress on any of the BORs ???
” Bad news, the Republican congress in 2006 re-authorized the voting rights act AS IS nio changes and GWB signed it into law and it requires polling places to provide ballots in non-English languages specified by what the minority locals speak.”
Wonderful.....
” And GWB signed the light bulb ban. “
I am still finding out about idiotic things GWB did while in office. No end to them.
Aside from the cost Mrs.Lincoln, how did you like the communism./s
These are not rights, they are entitlements. There is a. Difference. Rights do not need to be paid for by others.
“I am still finding out about idiotic things GWB did...”
GWB was a ‘useful idiot’, beholden to the one-world establishment, still to a great extent being directed in this country by one GHWB...
” GWB was a useful idiot, beholden to the one-world establishment”
All part of daddy’s New World Order......apple didn’t fall far from the tree.
Old age is not a right. It is a fact of life. His guy is a marxist wacko. Anyone who follows him deserves what they get.
I urge FRiends not to do anything to help anyone who belongs to a union or thinks Obama is the anointed one. Let them learn how to fend for themselves before things get out of hand.
Changing the essence of the Republic though a second Bill of Rights is an act worthy of war. Our founding fathers fought against lesser evils.
Before that war is fought, allow Obama’s people commit self-genocide. That is their culture. Just look at Chicago and any other rat-run city. Let them kill each other. Cut them off from their entitlements and watch them kill each other, and our Republic will become stronger.
How’d that work out for the Russians?

I want my right to a unicorn that poops skittles.. oh, and a free house.
And no end to the excuses bushbots offer for them. When GWB's justice department sued Texas (say, wasn't he governor there?) to prevent the execution of a Mexican rapist-murderer of teenage girls, they said it was because GWB wanted it to go to the SCOTUS so that it would be decided once and for all.
I got in a debate recently with a Maryland black Obama-supporter(true Democrat) about voting laws starting with voter ID laws. After much back and forth he admitted he thinks ANY (I mean ‘any’) human being on US soil should be able to vote here without any type of ID, and that it's a human right to vote. I asked him to FIND that right in the US constitution.
He got thrown when I told him few blacks will vote Republican especially with Obama as POTUS so Republicans should NOT be giving speeches to liberal black organizations.
So he thinks about it and tells me it is not hopeless because GWB minority outreach increased the black vote to 10 or 20% and so it's not hopeless.
I replied that it all backfired with Bush minority home ownership and most of the same blacks that swung Republican in 2004 (remember it was Kerry NOT Obama then) despised GWB by 2008.
He watches MSNBC and they praise GWB from time to time to hurt current Republicans, standard game, He knows I study them yet he tries this CRAP on me.
that is a scary democrat that you talked to.
He is way too young to have seen the 1960s civil rights era personally but it is obvious that he was trained by parents and peers to have historic victimization as a part of his central belief systems. He also talks about police as if they are all racist. He's a smart guy too on stuff not related to his belief system.
On the voting issue he is really sensitive and talks about 1960s 'poll taxes' that took place long before he was born and talks like he believes there is only one valid view to discuss, HIS. He gets very emotional and angry on voting issues.
I try to engage others from time to time as frustrating as it is to if nothing else analyze them.
Ironically we live in Maryland where if my vote was taken away I would lose nothing here, Maryland always goes Democrat now, as his side always wins now so he doesnt even have to vote in thegeneral elections. So it is like I lost my vote by living here. But he doesnt understand that.
It's even got a catchy name - "Night of the Long Knives".
