Obama's NLRB is going pro union! Is Obama a stealth liberal?
Edited on Fri May-13-11 09:54 AM by upi402
NLRB indicted Boeing for moving production to Governor Nikki Haley's anti-union South Carolina to avoid the company's WA State unions.

Lafe Solomon, Acting General Counsel NLRB
Appointed by Republican and Democratic Presidents
:patriot: :patriot:
Finally the NLRB isn't beating up on workers. Is this real? Is Obama a stealth liberal?
June 12 the case is going to a Seattle court.

What can we do to support Boeing workers there?
How can we beat Nikki Haley for union busting and hiring union busting thugs?

1. Since Obama appointed albeit recess appointments...
his people they have pro union.

Becker especially. Becker is of the mind that employers don't have a right or say in whether employees are organized. Which is as it should be. It is an employee organization intended to support and represent the employees. Not the employer. No one from management gets to be an officer of the union. No one from management pays dues. No one from management gets to vote on whether the employees will vote. No one from management votes on how the dues are spent or what type of training for their members. No one from management gets to decide when they hold their meetings.

Which goes to the point to that states should not have the right to decide whether their employees are organized either.

2. We can only hope.........
:) Of course it MIGHT be that Obama is back in campaign mode. But that's OK too. I'll take ANYTHING at this point to stop the bleeding.

3. i'm sure you're waiting for people like me to come out,
but i believe Obama always was and always will be a liberal. i am so convinced of this, i would bet all my future earnings on it! (ok, maybe not). he's had to thread the myriad of needles due to racism, nihilism, horrible recessions, etc. he can't do the things he wants until he (or some future lib/progressive) can get things under control. go ahead, laugh at me. i am absolutely convinced. do his books not convince you? i'm only asking because they absolutely convinced me years ago.

panders to bankers/big oil? yes, but did you see them in congress the other day? these guys are domestic terroristic freakazoids.
caves in to repubs? again, they've been acting like domestic terrorists, as well, since 11/08 -- and will stop at nothing to keep power/control. nothing.

man, i could go on, but i just get laughed at everywhere i go. Obama's my man, always will be.
