White House and Congress Have Union-Label Stamp! by Mark Mix

Today, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are calling the shots in a Union-Label White House and Congress.

So it’s easy to see why the past two years have been a dream come true for Big Labor.

Now, with the November 2 elections rapidly approaching, the union bosses are doing everything they can to hang on to their massive Congressional majorities.

And they’re hoping you WILL NOT read this letter.

You see, the union bosses don’t want you to know which candidates stand with them, and which ones stand with the nearly 80% of Americans that oppose forced unionism.

That’s why I recently sent each of your candidates for U.S. House and Senate a Right to Work Candidate Survey — and why your IMMEDIATE action is needed.

Today, I’m pleased to report to you that Republican Senate candidate Ken Buck and Republican Congressional candidate Scott Tipton have both answered their Candidate Surveys in 100% opposition to forced unionism.

But, I have bad news, too.

So far, Democrat incumbent U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and Democrat incumbent U.S. Congressman John Salazar have refused to pledge 100% opposition to forced unionism.

But John Salazar’s pro-forced-unionism position is no secret.

You see, as a Congressman, John Salazar voted FOR Big Labor’s cherished Card Check Forced Unionism Bill.

If passed, not only would this dangerous bill strip workers of their right to a secret ballot election when union organizers target their workplaces, but it would CRUSH our fragile economy, as well.

Not only that, but Congressman Salazar also voted for the Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining Bill — one of Big Labor’s most far-reaching power grabs.

If passed, this bill could force ALL police officers and firefighters nationwide under union boss control and would wreck state and local budgets.

Now, Big Labor has funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars into both Michael Bennet’s and John Salazar’s campaigns.

It looks like Big Labor can’t wait for Michael Bennet and John Salazar to go back to Washington, D.C. to vote for more forced unionism.

That’s why you need to turn U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and Congressman John Salazar around — before it’s too late.

The fact is, AFL-CIO Boss Richard Trumka and his union boss cohorts have accumulated a one BILLION dollar forced-dues-funded political war chest to smash all Big Labor opposition.

And if they succeed, “Card Check” and the Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining Bill would be just the tip of the iceberg.

The union bosses’ forced-dues wish list also includes:

Passage of a bill that would force ALL state and local public employees across the country under Big Labor’s thumb;

Passage of the so-called “Striker Replacement” Bill, which would force employers to punish workers who decide to work during a strike and virtually guarantee even the most outrageous union boss demands must be met;

Repeal of Section 14(b) of the Taft-Hartley Act, wiping out ALL state Right to Work laws nationwide.

Can you imagine the damage even ONE of these bills could do to our economy?

Especially now? Especially considering the economic uncertainty, the lost jobs and the stock market rollercoaster we’ve seen over the past several months?

That’s why it’s crucial you contact ALL of your candidates for the U.S. House and Senate TODAY.

Here’s what you can do to help:

1) Contact Democrat incumbent Senator Michael Bennet and Democrat incumbent Congressman John Salazar, and urge them to return their Candidate Surveys in 100% opposition to the union bosses’ forced-dues agenda.

Please, also, DEMAND that John Salazar apologize for his votes for “Card Check” and the Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining Bill;

2) Contact Republican Senate candidate Ken Buck and Republican House candidate Scott Tipton, and thank them for standing up to Big Labor and pledging 100% opposition to forced unionism.

With so much at stake this year, we’re really stretching our budget to put the heat on the candidates and keep opponents of forced unionism informed.

A Post from Michael Steele – Chairman, RNC

In his speech in France, Barack Obama called America “arrogant.”

I’m sure the French loved it – And so did the liberal press.

But who is this president who calls the American people arrogant?

This is the same politician whose supporters anointed him “The One” and a candidate who boasted that his election would be remembered as “the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.”

This is the same man who indicated his disdain for small town and working Americans when he said they “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them,” while addressing a group of San Francisco caviar and champagne liberal elitists.

How arrogant is that? Arrogant enough?

In truth, President Obama seems to champion the twisted “Blame-America First” mentality of the worst of the American left.

More importantly, it shows an absence of wisdom to criticize the United States while on foreign soil, and then join with the Pelosi-Reid Democrats in Congress to do everything possible to end American exceptionalism and create a weak, dependent socialist state patterned after the examples of Europe.

* He has taken steps towards nationalizing American auto companies; firing executives while leaving in power the same Union Bosses who funded his campaign and helped cripple the U.S.’s manufacturing base.

* He has refused to let financial firms pay back taxpayer-funded bailout loans, so he can make them hostages to the whims of the Federal government.

* As a lawyer, Obama once sued the same financial institutions on behalf of radical groups like ACORN for failing to use leftist social engineering criteria for lending instead of an applicant’s ability to repay a loan.

* He has opened up talks with Iran. Apparently, he believes he can make peace with crackpot tyrants and heartless terrorists simply by sitting down and talking.

* He campaigned on “transparency” and “integrity” in government and then has nominated a rogue gallery of tax evaders, Washington bureaucrats, and lobbyists to run his Administration.

* And he has brazenly followed his chief of staff’s maxim of “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste … This crisis provides the opportunity for us to do things that you could not do before” to cripple our free markets with massive taxation and spending that wrests away our freedoms and puts even our great-grandchildren in debt.

You know that Barack Obama’s hubris and charisma conceal the inexperience and lack of wisdom that our country cannot afford in its president.

And though the teleprompter and mainstream media liberals may delay America’s realization of the peril the Obama White House portends for our future for a while, the eventual failure of leftist policies and ineffective leadership will not.

We must be ready when that time comes.
