Ex-SEIU & Current DNC Boss On ObamaCare Ruling: “It’s Constitutional. B*tches.”

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  June 28th at 03:00 PM  | 

Though the grand master of community organizing, Saul Alinsky, may be dead, Alinsky’s disciples like Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Patrick Gaspard are powerful positions and they are plentiful. However, even though their titles may have changed (e.g., Community Organizer to President of the United States), as the head of the Barack Obama’s re-election campaign machine, one might think that Patrick Gaspard would at least | Read More »

Open Thread: SEIU’s Astroturf Paid $20 To Protest For ObamaCare Outside SCOTUS

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  March 29th at 12:00 PM  | 

As you watch the video below [via SEIU Monitor], you can tell the astroturf protesters bused in by the SEIU yesterday to protest outside the Supreme Court for ObamaCare hold some very deep convictions. In fact, their convictions run so deep, it seems all they care about is the $20 given to them in brown envelopes by their union handlers. Ironically, as SEIU Monitor points | Read More »

Using .Gov Domain & Obama’s Mother, DNC Propaganda Targets Women

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  February 27th at 07:00 PM  | 

A reader sent the following mailer (see below) from the Democratic National Committee targeting Florida’s female population. The DNC’s large, two-sided mailer reads like an Obama campaign piece (because it is one) and refers readers to a federal government website healthcare.gov. Interestingly, on one side of the mailer, the DNC tells the story of how Barack Obama was motivated to pass Obamacare by the passing of his | Read More »

Verizon’s Strikers Striking To Save Cadillac Health Plans From ObamaCare Realities

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  August 19th at 10:30 AM  | 

As of Thursday morning, there have been 202 incidents of sabotage since 45,000 Communications Workers of American (CWA) and International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) members went out on strike to preserve their Cadillac health plans. Of course, that was Thursday morning and, since the strike has been going on for about 10 days, the number of incidents caused by union unknown vandals will have | Read More »

Repeal ObamaCare. Then, Let’s Do Something Really Radical…Try Freedom.

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  December 16th at 01:00 PM  | 

ObamaCare. No, it’s not dead. Not even close. Yet, with Monday’s ruling that ObamaCare’s individual mandate is unconstitutional, there is some hope on the horizon that the foray into enslaving America in a government-dictated insurance scheme may yet be repealed, outlawed, or just thrown into the ash heap of really, really bad ideas. There is so much wrong with ObamaCare that it could fill an | Read More »

The Demon Who Wants Obama Out of His Life

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  December 4th at 07:45 PM  | 

You know things are bad for Obama when one of his most famous voters has turned against him. The man who, nearly 40 years ago, made history as ‘The Demon’ in the mega-band KISS was an Obama voter. As it turns out, Gene Simmons isn’t too thrilled with how things have turned out. Simmons isn’t too keen on having the government dictate his life: he | Read More »

ObamaCare: Union Waiver Favors Pile Up

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  November 15th at 07:00 AM  | 

Union bosses fought tooth and nail to nationalize America’s health care—even, in many cases, to the detriment of their own members. Now, instead of chewing on and swallowing what they bit off, unions are getting waivers to the very plan that they shoved down everyone else’s throat. Here’s the list of known unions* getting ObamaCare waivers:

Patty Murray: Washington’s Senator with the Peroxide Touch

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  October 19th at 02:30 AM  | 

Senator Patty Murray [D-WA] is apparently proud of the job she’s done for to Washington state.  After all, her job-creating ability is, shall we say…unique? Under Patty Murray’s watch, she’s done a quite job creating jobs. In fact, she’s so talented at creating jobs in other states that the Chambers of Commerce in Illinois and South Carolina should put her on retainer. And, her backing of | Read More »

ObamaCare: The Chickens Come Home to Roost…

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  October 15th at 05:15 AM  | 

By now, most Americans know how hard union bosses pushed, tugged, bullied and threatened, using tens of millions of their members’ money on advertising and lobbying, all to get health care reform passed.  Most Americans also remember (though many did not believe) the promises that health care reform would make health care “affordable for all.” And no one can forget how the legislation was sold to Americans: | Read More »

You didn’t really think Obamacare was going to leave you untouched, did you?

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  May 28th at 09:17 PM  | 

There wasn’t really a question about it, was there? Whether it’s called Obamacare or nationalized health care, we’ve been warning since October 2008 (as others have also weighed in) that Obamacare would eventually lead to single-payer insurance. Why?  It’s a matter of simple economics. If health care costs are expected to rise as predicted, employers will find fines less costly (and far less burdensome) than | Read More »
