SEIU Thugs Arrested After Shoving State Troopers

Here is one more example of how unions, human services corporations and professionals exploit person with disabilities. Whenever there are budget cuts they are outraged at the effects on persons with disabilities, they say. But the rest of the time they remain unconcerned about criminal abuses and unlawful denial of basic rights of persons with disabilities. These are the worst exploiters of vulnerable persons -- their only interests are earning money from the poor and disabled.

KOMO-TV: The arrests came as labor groups converged on the Washington state Capitol for a third day of demonstrations to call attention to budget cuts they called "immoral." The 17 protesters were arrested following a pushing and shoving match between protesters and Washington State Patrol troopers.

Union Goals

[From article]
"The goals of the teachers-union machine are not academic excellence, professional development and fairness. As former NEA official John Lloyd explained it: "You cannot possibly understand NEA without understanding Saul Alinsky. If you want to understand NEA, go to the library and get 'Rules for Radicals.'"
The goals are student indoctrination, social upheaval and perpetual agitation in pursuit of bigger government and spending without restraint."

Unions Force Dues Used to For Political Purposes

[From article]
"The AFL-CIO spent more than $100 million last year to defeat GOP candidates. The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees spent another $50 million and the NEA claimed it spent about $40 million, much of that money collected not as voluntary contributions but in mandatory union dues.
Despite their profligate spending, those unions lost the election and now have to face the consequences. It's about time."

Obama Opposes Change, Supports the Past in WI

Fox News analyst Charles Krauthammer points out that by leading the charge in Wisconsin, President Obama is now aligning himself with the same failed policies that have put so many states in a state of near bankruptcy. Meanwhile, GOP Governors Walker, Christie and Kasich are proposing real, courageous change, despite political consequences. Quite a turn around for the man who marketed himself as something different than "politics as usual".
