ENTER THE UNIONS .. 

Previous Posts

By Neal Boortz

I knew that the deeper we got into this Blagojevich story, eventually we would cross paths with unions. I didn't know exactly how or why or when .. but it was just a hunch that a corrupt governor like this Blagojevich character would be in it up to his chin with the unions. After all, when Blagojevich was re-elected, guess who was the largest single contributor to his campaign .. you guessed it: a union.

As we learn more about this investigation, it turns out that Blagojevich was getting ready to issue an executive order that would have allowed home healthcare workers to unionize. Meanwhile, Blagojevich's goal .. according to this criminal complaint .. was to get a high paying job from a powerful union from all of this Barack Obama senate seat nonsense.

Okay, fine. So the guy has issued executive orders like this before. It's no secret that not only does this guy love unions .. he wants to be in charge of them. He wants the power. Man, as if being the governor of a state wasn't good enough for him. But here's why I am bringing this story to you. Because you know how I feel about this unionization-by-intimidation bill. Otherwise known as the Card Check bill. But here is just a little taste of what the unions are currently doing, you can only imagine the tactics they would use once they get a law passed:

Don Moss, a Springfield lobbyist, represents private agencies that oversee workers who would have been affected by the latest executive order. He said he started receiving complaints from agencies that union representatives were contacting workers at their homes. Moss said the workers complained that union representatives were using heavy-handed tactics to try to get them to join the union.

Oh no! He's not serious, is he? How in the world could this guy ever expect us to believe that American's saintly unions would ever use heavy-handed tactics to get people to join? This is blasphemy!

Right ... This is just the beginning of it, folks. You wait until Obama is inaugurated and we've got Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid as his co-pilots. There will be no stopping the unions who feel entitled to their special "thanks" for keeping these people in power.
