Default Unions all but bankrupt..

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1244...s_opinion_main

'We spent a fortune to elect Barack Obama," declared Andy Stern last
month, and the president of the Service Employees International Union
wasn't exaggerating. The SEIU and AFL-CIO have been spending so much
on politics that they're going deeply into debt.

That news comes courtesy of federal disclosure forms that unions file
each year with the Department of Labor. The Bush Administration
toughened the enforcement of those disclosure rules, but under
pressure from unions the Obama Labor shop is slashing funding for such
enforcement. Without such disclosure, workers wouldn't be able to see
how their union chiefs are managing their mandatory dues money."

Look for the Union Label...

What are they crying about, they bought the frekin' Whitehouse for
cryin' out loud.

The most corrupt congress in history, holding hands with the most
criminal administration in history, we're screwed...

It warms my heart to see retired wealthy guys with more money than
brains so concerned for the working stiffs who want decent wages,
benefits and working conditions.

If only you had skills, the right temperment and a work ethic, you might
qualify for a skilled job with good wages, working conditions and
benefits negotiated by a union.

U see you peeking Hairy.
Suggest to your buddies, the stiffs, that they get those things the old
fashioned way. Work for them.
Unions got us where we are today and Obama is trying to finish the job.
