Dear Concerned American:
“I owe these unions.”
President Barack Obama couldn’t have stated it any more clearly.
And after spending a cool BILLION dollars to put their political cronies in positions of power in Washington, D.C., the union bosses couldn’t agree more.
They want PAYBACK.
After all, Barack Obama and the rest of Big Labor’s allies have already promised, “What Big Labor wants, Big Labor GETS!”
That’s why it’s vital you sign the survey below putting yourself squarely on record OPPOSED to the union bosses’ Card Check Forced Unionism Bill -- and the rest of Big Labor’s agenda -- IMMEDIATELY.
You see, you and I are up against a determined enemy in Big Labor.
Now that Ted Kennedy's Senate seat has flipped and the union bosses see their massive union-label majorities slipping away, they are pushing harder than ever to ram through the Card Check Forced Unionism Bill and the rest of their forced unionism agenda.
That’s why it’s vital you join our battle today!
As you know, if Big Labor succeeds in their radical scheme, workers would no longer be able to vote for or against union boss “representation” in a secret ballot election.
Instead, the union bosses would intimidate workers one-on-one -- or three-on-one -- into signing so-called “union authorization cards.”
And, of course, Big Labor has yet another ticking time bomb inside their “Card Check” scheme.
If the union bosses can drag out negotiations with an employer past 90 days by making outrageous demands, Obama Administration bureaucrats will have the power to use this so-called “problem” as an excuse to write a new labor contract and force its terms and conditions of employment upon those workers.
So you see, not only does Big Labor want to strip workers of the right to a secret ballot but also of the right to vote on their own contracts as well!
That’s why your action today is so critical.
You see, Big Labor has another trick up its sleeve to make doubly sure “Card Check” is rammed into law.
And that’s a “Trojan Horse” version of the Card Check Forced Unionism Bill that’s supposedly harmless if you believe the laughable stories coming from Big Labor’s mouthpieces in the national media.
But don’t be fooled.
The “Trojan Horse” version is every bit as damaging to American workers, jobs and our fragile economy.
Plain and simple, this is nothing more than a ploy by Big Labor to trick fence-riding Senators into caving in and jumping on board.
In fact, quoted in the People’s Weekly World -- an overtly COMMUNIST publication -- the AFL-CIO’s Director of Legislation said there would be NO CHANGES “that would undermine the basic thrust of the bill.”
That’s why it’s important that you sign this survey IMMEDIATELY.
It’s vital you and I help spread the word about what Big Labor is really up to.
If Big Labor succeeds with their power grabs this year, they will:
That’s why I’m counting on your help IMMEDIATELY.*** Force millions of additional working Americans to pay union dues under the threat of losing their jobs, filling Big Labor coffers with hundreds of millions of forced-dues dollars;
*** Dramatically increase the wasteful work rules, hate-the-boss propaganda, slowdowns and bitter strikes that shut down businesses and destroy jobs, ensuring that even more plants are closed and more jobs are shipped overseas or lost forever;
*** Pump even more campaign cash into the coffers of its radical, tax and spend politicians like Barack Obama who, in turn, will look for even greater ways to increase the union bosses’ forced-dues empire.
You see, a Capitol Hill aide was quoted recently admitting that Harry Reid is planning to move “Card Check” to the floor and get it passed before anyone can mobilize against it.
Union Bosses and Democrat Senate leaders are openly suggesting the bill could be moved in the coming weeks.
So we can’t wait. We must bring our case against Big Labor’s agenda to the American people NOW.
The good news is the National Right to Work Foundation has developed a massive plan to spread the word about Card Check and the rest of Big Labor's schemes.
Educational programs. Grassroots communications like this one, but to millions more people.
Newspaper, radio, and TV ads exposing Big Labor and their power grabs.
And the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation will use your survey to prove to the media and the politicians that Big Labor's powergrab is bad policy and very politics.
National press conferences will be held showing workers in danger of being herded into Big Labor's corral and the American people fighting for their workplace freedom.
You and I and the Foundation together can rally support to prevent Big Labor from getting their way.
But that's all VERY expensive -- especially since everything is "last minute."
That’s why it’s vital you act TODAY!
And that’s why, in addition to your signed survey, I hope you’ll agree to make a generous tax-deductible contribution to help National Right to Work fight back against Big Labor.
After signing your survey, please make a generous tax-deductible contribution to the Foundation of $500, $250, $100 or $35.
This is not a battle you and I can afford to lose.
I'm convinced that with the Foundation's plan to educate Americans about the dangers of Card Check, you and I can stop Big Labor's agenda in its tracks.
But we don’t have much time.
Please sign this survey and make a generous tax-deductible contribution of $500, $250, $100 or $35 -- or whatever you can -- to help defeat Big Labor’s Card Check Forced Unionism Bill.
It’s vital you act TODAY!
Sincerely,
Steve Forbes
One of the questions always brought up in college Philosophy courses is whether or not it is ethical for a man to steal a loaf of bread if he does so to save his child from starvation. In the case of Big Labor, union bosses want to force what's left of the workforce into unions via card check to, among other things, confiscate their earnings and shovel them into their bloated, overextended, underfunded pension schemes. A phenomenon which I have seen firsthand via my peripheral involvement with my employer's most recent union negotiation.
Oh, it wouldn't save them; just stave off the inevitable collapse for a short time longer. Not unlike how their Obamunist allies blindly believe that they can spend the nation out of debt, or how a child believes that by pulling the covers over his/her head s/he can make the monsters go away. Just declare that everything is okay and it will be. The laws of economics only exist if Godbama doesn't suspend them for his flock's benefit. When the next stage of the Great Collapse comes, blame Republicans/conservatives/teabaggers/the American people/blue dogs/pick a number/anybody but themselves,
Because as is rote Obamunist doctrine, The Narrative shalt not be challenged, and Obamatopia will not be denied - no matter how stupendously they have to redefine it.

From the Desk of: Steve Elliott, Grassfire Nation The President isn't taking any chances this time. He is engaging his most radical allies to push through Obama Care, and you and I are the last line of defense. --Steve With the final push for ObamaCare underway, the radical MoveOn.org and progressive organizations like Health Care for America (HCAN), and Service Employees International Union (SEIU) are uniting on February 24 - the day before the President's Health Care Summit to "deliver to Washington D.C., a scream they will never, ever forget." According to their site, their 1 Million Voices for Healthcare Reform: A Virtual March on Washington, will include "calls, faxes, Tweets, Facebook, emails, telegrams, balloon drops and carrier pigeons. Whatever, it takes." And that's not all... Obama's own organization, the one he relied so heavily upon to get elected, and renamed shortly after he arrived at the White House, Organizing for America (OFA) is calling for its volunteers to pledge 5 million hours to support members of Congress and candidates who fight for real health reform! According to their site, they already have 4 million volunteer hours! In the days ahead, there's no question we are facing a David and Goliath challenge, but if you'll recall, David won against the much larger and imposing giant... and I fervently believe history is about to repeat itself. That's why I'm sending out this URGENT CALL TO ACTION to EVERY member of our ONE MILLION strong team. I want to make certain as we come down to the twelfth hour in ObamaCare, Grassfire Nation is fully engaged, and doing all that we can to short-circuit this radical push to pass this disastrous health care legislation. + + Grassfire Nation Fax Barrage to Counter the Radical Left!

h/t: Uncle
And a mmm mmm mmm to youse, too.
Over the last few weeks, concerned citizens like you warned your Senators about Becker’s radical record, and on Tuesday the Senate BLOCKED this extremist nominee.
Your pressure worked, but Becker’s defeat in the Senate won’t stop the forced unionism proponents in the White House and Congress from trying to implement union boss power grabs like Card Check Forced Unionism by any means necessary.
Current reports say President Obama may still install Becker as a recess appointment to the NLRB, where he would bypass Congress and begin to install Card Check Forced Unionism via agency rules.
And now, a recent news report has revealed that the Obama administration is also considering a new executive order that could effectively require all federal contractors to submit their workers to coercive card check organizing. Thus, the tens of billions of dollars in Stimulus and so-called "Jobs" legislation become funnels for the forced unionization of tens of thousands of American workers.
Learn more at this latest scheme to expose millions of American workers to the intimidation and harassment of card check organizing at the Freedom@Work blog.
It's unbelievable to me that anyone even listens to this crap any more. The "Cambridge Climate Congress?" Gimme a break. Here's hoping there are enough level heads up there to tell the CCC what they can do with their "Vegan Mondays."Congestion pricing to reduce car travel. Elimination of curbside parking. A carbon tax "of some kind," not to mention taxes on plastic and paper bags. Advocating vegetarianism and veganism, complete with "Meatless or Vegan Mondays." Those are just some of the proposals put forth by the Cambridge Climate Congress, an entity created in May 2009 to respond to the "climate emergency" plaguing the Massachusetts city.
