Nancy Pelosi Goes ‘Rogue’: Boeing Should Either Close Down SC Plant Or Unionize It

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  October 31st, 2011 at 04:00 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Yeah, the former Democratic Speaker of the House went there…

In fairness, Pelosi’s advisers may have neglected to tell the former speaker that the South Carolina plant was once unionized before employees chose to exercise their rights to become union-free. Her advisers may have also neglected to tell the former speaker that the only reason the Machinists union likely filed charges against Boeing is because those employees chose to exercise their rights to become union free–which would be unlawful retaliation on the part of the union.

[Of course, the NLRB seems to be dragging its feet on the union's retaliation as it may complicate things for the union-run agency--like how the NLRB has allowed itself to become a union pawn and allow its prosecutorial process to become a joke by going after Boeing instead of the union for its apparent retaliaton.]

So, it could be the former speaker’s advisers may have neglected to tell her all of those things. Or, it could also be that the former speaker simply chooses to ignore them.

Since the employees in South Carolina already made their decision to become union-free, it looks as though Nancy Pelosi‘s only solution will be to shut it down.

Now, Nancy, that doesn’t sound too much like winning the future [WTF], does it?

    Boeing should just unilateraly declare the place union.

    • rpr0174

      Since when does this dumb b**** Pelosi think that Boeing should be shut down? Since when does the Government tell a Company where and when they can open a new shop? This is complete Marxism. This goes to show that Oboner is sleeping with HOHO Hoffa and the useless stupid cronies in the Union. North Carolina is a right to work state and that means employees can choose to be unionized or not. That just irks HOHO and Oboner to no end. This crap should not be allowed or tolerated. Why doesn’t O**** let HOHO Hoffa unionize the Whtie House? The b****’s level of thinking is just unreal. Shut down Boeing because they have a plant in South Carolina? Government control at it’s best and Pelosi brains at her worse. Don’ t let the Union, the government, or anybody else tell you where to build your new plant, Boeing. It is your plant, not commie O*****’s, not the wicked witch of the west Pelosi’s.

        I meant South Carolina as the right to work state not North Carolina.
        Dumbo Pelosi needs to be put out of her misery and her stupid insane remarks.

          Wouldn’t it be much simpler to unionize her non-union holdings? No one would go to jail for that.

          We don’t tolerate that kind of ill-wishing here. So you will apologize for it right now; never, ever make a comment like it again on this site; and generally improve your tone and demeanor while commenting here.

          Indicate your understanding of, and compliance with, this instruction in your next comment.

          Pelosi is a hypocrite, she tells a huge corporation to close their billion dollar plant if it doesn’t go union, yet her winery in California has refused the right of the workers to organize. The plant in NC would put thousands of people to work, regardless of union or not and she says close it down. Is she in favor of jobs or just union jobs?

        Obama, Pelosi, and the rest of the Liberals that have taken over the Democrat Party have been buying votes for years without retaliation. They sell favors to the Unions. They sell favors to folks like Waren Buffet, and G. Soros, and any other group who will financially support them, or help them gain votes to be re-elected to office.

        These kind of people only understand a swift kick in the seat of the pants, or a bloody nose. They only understand when you vote them out of office, then arrest them and send them to prison. Crooks will always be crooks unless you convert them the hard way. Perverts will always be perverts unless Christ converts them and they turn from their sinful ways.

        Obama along with his cohorts should be arrested for bribing rich folks to support them by offering them special favors. They should also be convicted of stealing tax payer dollars to buy welfare votes.

        We need to send them packing. Look at what they are doing now. They are diverting attention from the economy, and from their many scams by attacking the Republicans and urging them to fight among themselves. They are a devious group and will do anything to stay in power.

        We need to urge our Republican candidates to make peace with each other, but not with Obama and his motley crew!

        the people of the left think they have a natural born right to run everything. That includes every aspect of your private life and mine. So, of course they think they have a right to tell a business where to build, what to make, who to hire, how much to pay them. And also to tell those employees what organizations they must join, along with what they can eat, how to raise their kids, and what kind of car to drive.

        There is no limit to their arrogance. Not even their ignorance limits them. Indeed, they wear it as a badge of honor–”you’ll have to vote for the bill so we can find out what’s in it.”!!!! So, why should ignorance of what it says in the Constitution ever stop them???

        Just a friendly reminder: While your sentiments are shared by many, a well-placed asterisk in lieu of a fully spelled out expletive would be better for many readers.

        …and, if you’re prone to expletives like I tend to be, an exclamation point in parentheses following the asterisk-laden word or phrase is gratifying as well.

        ;)

          Osculate my posterior erogenous zone.

          and the union can …
          Aeronautically fornicate a kinetically energized toroidal pastry.

    • uncle_fweddy

      despite Obama, and the democrats’ best efforts, we could allow the actual employees to choose. Oh yeah, they already did…

  • NeoKong

    Auto dealerships.
    Farmers.
    Coal plants.
    Oil rigs.
    Salmon fishers.
    Timber companies.
    Food trucks.
    Charter schools.
    Store owners.
    Tour companies, you name it.

    They would rather see it all shut down than be out of their control.

  • sbm1

    and I think it would be great if Nancy Pelosi would go into a cave crawl up and never be heard from again…..

    Just a bit upset that Barturomo didn’t know the simple facts, that it was not a corporate decision, but one the workers themselves chose.

  • tngal

    Apparently our efforts last election weren’t quite good enough. She’s lost speaker of the house status but is still under the delusion she’s relevant.

    Losing that big gavel has really put her knickers in a twist.

  • renl57

    She knows that SC is highly unlikely to vote for Obama. So as far as she’s concerned, SC can go to hell.

    But the Rust Belt may still vote for Obama. And they are unionized. And they have more electoral votes too.

    Only union members should have jobs, since they tithe to the Democratic Party.

    • 4suramcan

      I believe she is being led by the devil. She is too wily to be insane.

      • Tbone

        I’m afraid she IS that kind of girl.

  • calhoun211

    Pelosi, Reed, Obama, doing their best to destroy our country.

  • lastgopinillinois

    where she belongs.

    Being a Christian man, i try real hard not to hate anyone. But God help me, she makes my blood boil !

  • snappy101

    Nancy Pelosi represents neither district in either state involved in this and should butt out unless she is on the Stick The Government Nose in Everbody’s Business committee and I missed it on her webpage.

    • davesinsanantonio

      to stick their nose into every aspect of everyone else’s life, property, business, and to pursue happiness for them. Whether they want it or not!!!

  • republicanconscience

    Nancy Pelosi belongs in Jail, and when there is a new sheriff in the White House, she will be prosecuted. She will not have any problem proving insanity to get out of all the fraud charges, misappropriation of funds, abuse of power, shake down extortion, etc and TREASON.

    If I were Boeing’s CEO, I would announce that the SC plant is being moved to El Salvador due to excessive government interference in my business.

    • willhen50

      If I was Boeings CEO, I would move the Washington plant to El Salvador. But seriously, why is the Government telling a business who to hire and where it can build? Boeing has invested a lot of money in building the plant in SC and the governments intervention is creating a loss of revenue for the company, that is a violation in the Fair Trade bill. The Dreamliner is already promised to many air carriers and delays will cause the air carriers to go somewhere else. There was 2 or 3 builders of airplanes that lost to Boeing, all being foreign companies. IS THE OBAMA GOVERNMENT REALLY FOR CREATING JOBS?

  • paco12348

    How can anyone think a progressive Democrat is NOT a pure Socialist?

  • spolson

    She had her husbands exempted from the last minimum wage hike. As a liberal she should be tarred and feathered. As an congresswoman she should be thrown out for not supporting American business. As a person she is reprehensible.

  • spolson

    I meant to say her husband’s businesses, in US territories exempted…

  • rubicon01

    You know, its now become amazing. There are so many stories of ineptitude & abuse, that no media oitlet can report on all of them. Wait, no one is reporting on Nancy’s drivel.
    No one is talking about the fact the employees rejected union representation. No one. Not even that governor from what I can tell. Where are the newspaper headlines? Where is the TV special news report?
    Why is it we must depend on blogs to get these critical details?
    Pelosi has once again shown she cannot be trusted. This administration & most Democrats now in congress, along with a number of Republicans I am sorry to say, either do not have the facts or they are deliberately distorting &/or ignoring them, for partisan purposes.
    They have gone too far & we need a serious housecleaning.
