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....

Mary Kay Henry....

Henry is a Roman Catholic, a lesbian, and co-founder of SEIU's Lavender Caucus, a gay and lesbian group within the international union dedicated to improving rights for LGBTQ people within unions and at the workplace.[1][13][6][28][4] She and her partner, Paula Macchello (a senior strategic organizer with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters), are both advocates for same-sex marriage.[3][35] She has discussed using her leadership position to advocate for LGBTQ rights.[4]

What I have found truly amazing is how racist these union supporters are. When you see the pictures it is a sea of white faces! I wonder if we should mention that.

Unsolicited email is a federal offense.

Report them

“But it’s not just union members at risk; it’s the services these members provide...”

Subtle threat, not too much.

I hope SEIU will make many more rallys like this..
Renta mobs make good conservative television....

They offset TpCaucus rallys beautifully..

Hope "somebody" will video the trash left by these people AFTER THE MOB disperses..
Will make for some lovely sound and video bites...

It's now evident that SEIU is freely providing the Obama administration with brownshirts to do their thuggery.

The SEIU also clearly occupied a special role in Obama's election. Moreover, their president, Andy Stern was the most frequent visitor to the White House (weekly) and said to be "the most influential man in Washington".

Then, without warning, Stern resigned from the leadership of the SEIU -- in April, 2010 -- and has essentially disappeared from public view.

It's curious, isn't it?

Why would the most powerful voice in the union movement and "the most influential man in Washington" suddenly resign his position? Even as his union was apparently taking over a special (and unconstitutional) role for the President of the United States?

And, at the peak of his power, why would he suddenly vanish from public view?

Worth investigating...???

The only difference is the state won’t automatically take union dues out of your check. Instead, the employee will have to agree to have the dues taken out of their checks, which means people won’t be FORCED to join the union, they will have a CHOICE!

I’ve been thinking about this, all the ‘Hitler’ equivalences thrown at Scott Walker AND at 0bama. I’m bored with the WWII references. And with the “This is just like Egypt” meme.

Let’s go back a hundred and fifty years, to something that is really quite apt: The Civil War:

November 2010: 0bama’s ‘Ft. Sumter’

Wisconsin, February, 2011: 0bama’s First Manassas.

Ironic isn’t it that 0bama is the Commander in Chief of the UNION forces?

And that this is an attack by the titular head of the Federal Government on States Rights / 10th Amendment?.

Instead of sending General McDowell and the blue-coated U.S. Army, 0bama has sent Richard Trumka and the SEIU purple-shirted thug brigades. ...

Lets just hope that Governor Walker remains a Stone wall, Jackson.

This bill will pass the way it is, no republican will change his vote!

When the government workers are not getting any pay they will beg the 14 to go back to work!

The new budget in Wisconsin is coming up shortly.
