Somehow I got on SEIU's email list. Thought these email from their president was interesting. Perhaps, some of you would like to take Ms. Henry up on her offer of sending an email message of "support" to the Wisconsin strikers....

I just told them to get their hands out of the taxpayers’ pockets. My legs will probably get broken.

The Dem senators are only needed for fiscal bills.

Passing "Right to Work" legislation would not require the Dem senators in order to make quorum.

Neither would Vermont-style CCW, "Make my Day", requiring photo-ID to vote, and requiring a long-form birth certificate in order to get on the Presidential ballot.

Republicans there need to stop using the absent Dems as an excuse to do nothing.

In reading the bill the home health care aides will not be allowed to unionize as state employees. SEIU is striving to go throughout every state in the union and unionize home health workers.

In the UP of Michigan several have been sent letters informing them that they will have to unionize. The response back to SEIU has been Drop Dead.

....we'll make a strong statement that America will not tolerate any more Republican attacks on the middle class.

Yeah, they have to get back to the Democrat attacks on the "rich".

When you kill the employer class, you have fewer employees. When you have greedy union employees, you have fewer union workers. If the state is part of the employer class, the unions feel they have a bottomless pot of money - just keep taxing. This all boils down to running out of other people's money. Redistribution doesn't work.

"...When Scott Walker manufactured this crisis by giving tax cuts to corporations and his special interest friends last month, it escalated a state legislative debate into a struggle for economic justice with large corporations not paying their fair share to get Americans back to work..."

The same old class envy BS ... the big corporations just exploit the workers, the rich get richer etc. This is the old Communist and Socialist lie.

If Unions cared about their members and children:

They would lower their compelled dues that members pay until wages catch up to the increases costs.

Create a sliding scale to match annual increases.

Lower from the 1,000+ annual dues to 500.00 and raise a few points each year!

And now, let us all sing the Workers’ Anthem:

SEIU, say me
Say it for always
That’s the way it should be

SEIU, say me
Say it together
Naturally...

If Unions think they’re hated now, wait til they bankrupt the State they operate in... They haven’t begun to know hatred.

I haven't seen this yet...

The hysterical "educational" union crooks in Wisconsin, and Obama both are besides themselves about "union busting." It's a dirty phrase.
Except for me. I hope it is union busting, and way overdue, but only applied to public employees at any level. I subscribe completely to FDRs view of public employee unions.

In a little-known letter he wrote to the president of the National Federation of Federal Employees in 1937, Roosevelt reasoned:

"... Meticulous attention should be paid to the special relationships and obligations of public servants to the public itself and to the government. All Government employees should realize that the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service. It has its distinct and insurmountable limitations ... The very nature and purposes of Government make it impossible for ... officials ... to bind the employer ... The employer is the whole people, who speak by means of laws enacted by their representatives ...

"Particularly, I want to emphasize my conviction that militant tactics have no place in the functions of any organization of government employees. Upon employees in the federal service rests the obligation to serve the whole people ... This obligation is paramount ... A strike of public employees manifests nothing less than an intent ... to prevent or obstruct ... Government ... Such action, looking toward the paralysis of Government ... is unthinkable and intolerable."
