FoP Endorses Sherrod Brown, Say What

RESIZE: AAA

The Ohio FoP endorsement of Sherrod Brown is just more proof that union leaders are completely out of touch with the rank and file, and do no represent their interests. I happen to know several police officers and they have a very low opinion of the man. I would bet in a state wide poll of LEOs Josh Mandel easily beats Brown.

In my not so humble opinion, I believe this to be further evidence of the corruption of union leadership that they would endorse an man who policies and voting record are the most liberal in the Senate. I believe Brown would throw the rank and file under the bus in a heart beat, but, as long as he gets their union dues for his campaign, I doubt he cares.

LEOs are some of the best people I know. They have a very tough job and they deserve our gratitude. It is a shame to see their good name besmirched by the very people they elected to represent them.

    I have actually watched this little tin god practice being our “representative”. At an AF base, I watched him rake a civilian over the coals for a comment on bio-fuels being a “secure” fuel, no matter where your opinion is on global warming. He absolutely humiliated this poor GS worker in front of about 20 hangers-on and sycophants who were traveling with him.

    We can do without people who vote for the EPA MACT standards (by declining to back cloture of a bill to repeal), vote for ObamaCare, and vote for every one of Obama’s budget-busting spending bills. He lives like royalty in his Ohio home, but tries to pretend he is just a common guy. Ohio deserves a LOT better.

    Go, Josh!!!

    The unions are getting a lot of traction out of SB5. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. I agree that a lot of LEOs probably can’t stand brown. I hope they speak up.
