Here is a link to the actual Senate version of a bill that will end secret ballots for groups that want to organize a union. Under the link you I have copied the co-sponsors of the bill and highlighted Mr. Obama.
Notice the language of the Sec. 2. if a majority of workers in a business sign a card stating they want a Union, then there will be no election (as there is now), where the workers get to vote in secret.
This will allow unions that we all know are corrupt and rife with organized crime to intimidate people into voting for unionization.
"All for the union stand in that line, everyone against go over there so we can break your leg!"
Somebody that likes Obama, please explain how you can support him given these facts?????

Ferd,
Your link is saying, "Search results are only retained for a limited amount of time.Your search results have either been deleted, or the file has been updated with new information." Wonder why, huh? lol
Anyway, I have some people asking me for the Title of the Legislation? Can you post that here? Thanks!
Probably the same reason he votes against handgun ownership. Pretty sure of that, Stew.
Full Throttle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, that was a serious question. I waswondering what the rationale or argument would be for this.
And just to keep the nature of our political sparring alive, I feel compelled to tell you that you need to go back and restudy his stance on gun control and the federal policy he said he would adapt.
