    The only logical explanation for someone who supports the Orwellian named ‘Employee Free Choice Act’ is that they are corrupt and favor even greater corruption.

  2. Sebastian B. O. Bunionstow IV. says:

    We should know enough about Obama to know where he’s going. He wants to rob the workiing wo/mans right to choose through “freedom of choice.” So did Stalin.

  3. William R. Casey says:

    This should be called “The Union Thug Intimidation Act”.

  4. Paulo says:

    I like the name “Employee Free Choice Act”, it gives an idea that employees will have a free choice in participating in the election of their leaders and voting in whoever they want without the threat of being punished by the “free” choice they made.

    But then, if your vote is not secret are you really choosing freely (or choosing at all)?

    Keep your eyes on “Benedict Arlen” Specter. He’s a marked man for the ’10 primary, yet his major contributors are Philly unions.
