Obama’s Big Labor Thugs Have a Legacy of Violence

Michelle Malkin, MichelleMalkin.com

To mark Labor Day 2010, President Obama will join hands with AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka in Milwaukee and pose as champions of the working class. Bad move. Trumka’s organizing record is a shameful reminder of the union movement’s violent and corrupt foundations.

The new Obama/AFL-CIO power alliance — underwritten with $40 million in hard-earned worker dues — is a midterm shotgun marriage of Beltway brass knuckles and Big Labor brawn. Trumka warmed up his rhetorical muscles this past week with full-frontal attacks on former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. He indignantly accused her of “getting close to calling for violence” and suggested that her criticism of Tea Party-bashing labor bosses amounted to “terrorizing” workers.

Trumka and Obama will cast Big Labor as an unassailable force for good in American history. But when it comes to terrorizing workers, Trumka knows whereof he speaks.

Meet Eddie York. He was a workingman whose story will never scroll across Obama’s teleprompter. A nonunion contractor who operated heavy equipment, York was shot to death during a strike called by the United Mine Workers 17 years ago. Workmates who tried to come to his rescue were beaten in an ensuing melee. The head of the UMW spearheading the wave of strikes at that time? Richard Trumka.

    The union movement was taken over by THUGS AND CRIMINALS back in the HOFFA days; now we have the US government infiltrated by CROOKS AND CRIMINALS. Is it any wonder why our country is going down the toilet?

    If it had not been for the criminal unions, felons, dead people and stupid A$$ Americans this muslim communist b-s-a-d would not be in the oval office. I pray every day for his demise or even demission because it appears that is the only way to get our American back. If he is gone so will all the criminal thugs around him and hopefully after November 2010 most of those worthless sob's in both houses of congres willl also be gone.
