Unions weren’t the problem in 2004. George Bush was the problem. He came to PA when Specter was on the ropes against Pat Toomey and campaigned for him. Just goes to show you that if someone has to call themselves a “compassionate-conservative”, they aren’t conservative at all. The same applied in 1988 when George Herbert Walker Bush campaigned on the platform of a “kinder, gentler America”.
Please God! No more Bushes!
This isn’t 2004. This is 2009. Unions are the biggest problem that this country is facing. Pennsylvania is one of three states where unions are planning to make a big push. If Pennsylvanians let the unions have any more power than they already wield, PA will become one huge welfare state.
