The State of the Union is Still a State of War
2012-01-27 16:17:00 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The State of the Union is Still a State of War by R. Lee Wrights BURNET, Texas (Jan. 27) - A year ago, after President Barack Obama's State of the Union message I wrote an op-ed entitled "The State of the Union is a State of War." Lamentably, a year later, after his 2012 address I am compelled to write that the State of the Union is still a state of war. And there's no sign that the wars will come to an end anytime soon, particularly so long as Democrats, Republicans, and their corporate and special interest supporters keep using our tax dollars to fund these wars so that they can benefit and profit. President Obama used the word "fair" and "reward" several times in his speech. His vision of "fair" is to "fight obstruction with action," by taking from those who produce and giving that money as a "reward" to those who produce nothing. His idea of "fair" is to "reward companies that keep jobs in America" by taxing companies that try to stay in business by outs...

The Republican National Committee (RNC) launched a new television ad ?State of Our Union? to coincide with President Obama?s State of the Union address tonight. The ad displays the nation?s economic struggles?13 million unemployed and 49 million in poverty?that are a direct result of Barack Obama?s failed leadership. It is being aired in Washington, DC as well as North Carolina, Virginia and Michigan, key battleground states where Barack Obama is on the defensive after three years of failed promises.?Barack Obama has a lot of a explaining to do in tonight?s State of the Union Address,? said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus. ?One year ago, he stood before the American people and promised he would tackle the housing crisis, rampant joblessness and get our economy back on track. But one year later, it?s more than clear that his sole priority is getting reelected.??The day after he delivers his State of the Union Address, Bar...

It?s good to be in the Sunshine State. It breaks my heart to visit plants like this one.In 2008, this plant closed because of the economic downturn. In a normal recovery under strong leadership, it could now be full of workers.Here in Florida, people used to wake up and look forward to a hard day?s work and a good, honest wage.The money they earned helped support families and build communities. Today too many factory floors are silent, warehouses are deserted, corporate offices are empty, and real estate endeavors are abandoned. Floridians are struggling to find a job, keep a home, and raise a family.As I?ve traveled across America, I?ve heard similar stories in virtually every corner of this country. High unemployment and record home foreclosures. Debt that?s too high and opportunities that are too few. ...

European Union Biodiesel Production Slumps in 2011
2011-10-24 17:01:00 Greening the European Union has suffered a setback. The European Biodiesel Board is reporting that the European Union biodiesel industry production forecasts are noting a 2011 decrease in output, the first since data has been gathered, down from 2010 figures of 9.57 million tons. The European Biodiesel Board reported that biodiesel generation in Europe in 2010 grew by 5.5 percent over 2009 production figures, while in 2009 the European Union’s biodiesel industry grew by 17 percent. Recently the European Union’s best year for biodiesel output was 2008, when the growth rate surged 35 percent over 2007 levels. Germany and France are the European Union’s leading biodiesel producing nations, followed by Spain and Italy. According to the European Biodiesel Board, . . . → Read More: European Union Biodiesel Production Slumps in 2011

Obama's Union-Sold Regulatory Agency Goes Even Further for Unions
2011-06-23 19:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston With one regulatory decision after anther, Obama's National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has repeatedly abused its position and lent its powers to come to the material aid of Big Labor. This week we see the NLRB coming to the aid of unions yet again by changing rules to fast track union votes in businesses not yet suffering under union control. The NLRB has ruled that unions trying to strong arm their way into businesses will now be afforded a sort of fast tracked voting process meant to give both businesses and employees far, far less time to learn about and understand the issues surrounding a vote in favor of unionization. Currently when a union wants to...

Union Contracts More Important Than Patients For Union Drivers
2011-05-29 18:02:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Priorities. Union guys have priorities, you know? For instance, in New Jersey earlier this year a bunch of union drivers for the Communications Workers of America (CWA) decided that it was more important to have a "sick-out" and strand sick elderly people, preventing them getting to their life-saving medical treatment than do their jobs. State Sen. Joe Kyrillos, (R-13), of Middletown wasn't too happy with these uncaring union louts, either. "It is outrageous that 174 disabled and elderly clients who depend on SCAT were stranded by what appears to be a coordinated effort by employees to disrupt service without notice," said Kyrillos. "The actions of these workers is completely unbecoming of any public servant, and should...
Union Thugs Protest The Wrong Place!
2011-05-25 18:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston I guess that getting the correct information when arranging a smear campaign and protest is not necessary when you are the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). Who needs to be in the right when you are an important, powerful, politically connected union, eh? The seriousness of the charge and the effort to "raise awareness" is far more important than targeting the right people to smear, right? It seems that the SEIU decided to picket against Marcellus Shale drilling, sometimes called hydrofracking, and the severance tax associated with it. So the government employee union picked a site in Hastings, Pennsylvania to highlight this subject and to shame the company that owns the property into siding with them....
Union 2 Fire 1 - Recap and Ratings
2011-05-23 00:12:00 The worst start in club history continues to get worse as a promising fixture list during the month of May has yielded only two points with one match remaining. In increasingly frustrating fashion the Fire didn't play a terrible game and the effort on the pitch was commendable but the results continue to mount against them. Mistakes at inopportune times and breakdowns which allow goals far too easily continue to be recurring problems- that haven't been corrected. This time Philadelphia scored twice on plays that looked fairly unthreatening. The Union's first score came after a free kick was awarded to the left of the Fire goal. Rather than an attempt to play the ball into the penalty area the Union passed back...

Dues Paid to Union Fat Cats Could Have Funded 265,447 Workers For A Year
2011-05-11 18:30:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Leftists and union supporters love to point to the salaries of corporate bosses and claim them an excess in order to goad regular people into fits of envy and hatred, stirring that class warfare that leftists love so much. But the folks at LaborUnionReport.com thought it might be interesting to turn the tables and calculate what could have been done with all that money were it not wasted on union dues. LUR notes that with 14.7 million union members nation wide, that is a "substantial amount of dues money flowing to unions." It is, indeed. Before we get to LUR's calculations, though, we should note that most dues money goes to fund the excessive lifestyles of...
Union Thug Teacher Hopes Opponents Get Roughed Up by Teamsters
2011-05-10 18:30:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Like any union thug, when confronted by someone that simply won't bend to union will, why, the first thing they resort to is violence -- or at least threats of same -- and this union thug in Washington D.C. is no different than any other. Caught at a protest arranged by unions to attack school choice, the cameras of some Freedom Works folks found a typical unionista that hoped the Teamsters would "kick the asses" of those that dare oppose the unions. She wished violence to descend upon anyone that wants kids to have a better education. Naturally, this union creep also resorted to foul language. Typical union thug....
Tom Morello: new EP, "Union Town"
2011-04-30 18:23:00 Tom Morello will release a new EP, "Union Town", digitally on May 17 and as a CD and vinyl album on July 19. All profits from "Union Town" will benefit The America Votes Labor Unity Fund via SaveWorkers.org. The disc consists of eight pro-union songs, with Morello saying in a statement, "Unions are a crucial counterweight to the raw corporate greed that torpedoed our economy, threatens our environment and wants to strip away decades of social progress." Morello played at pro-union rallies in Madison, Wisconsin this past February, where Governor Scott Walker put forward an anti-union bill passed by Republicans. The title track from the "Union Town" EP is available now at SaveWorkers.org.
Union Plan: 'Forget About the Law, Brand Businesses as Human Right Vio
2011-04-25 18:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Once again we see how lawless the Obama administration and its allies in unions are. By their own admission they don't care about the law. In the following video we see Obama's appointee to his Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations and United Auto Workers President, Bob King, telling attendees at a recent union roundtable discussion that the unions intend to "forget about the law." We also see violence prone AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, a close Obama confidante, saying the same thing. So, their plan is to ignore any actual law and then further to "brand" businesses as "human rights violators" so that they can destroy them....
Union Operative That Wants 'Financial Panic' and Communism Still
2011-04-22 18:15:00 -By Warner Todd Huston You may remember back in March that an audio tape was released upon which an SEIU operative expressed his desire to destroy the American economy by creating "financial panic" and overloading the system. This, it was proposed, could lay the groundwork to turn America into a perfect communist society. The union operative in question was a guy named Steve Lerner and he works for the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). The fact that it is he "works" for the SEIU is certainly news. After all, when the tape was released we were all assured that Lerner was fired by the SEIU because of his communist-inspired rambling....
Your Taxes Paying Government Union Members NOT to Work
2011-04-21 18:47:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Must be nice to be a government worker in a government union. Heck, some of these government union guys are even paid not to work and paid by the taxpayers to do so, yet! Vincent Vernuccio, labor policy guy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, tells us that the Obama administration is even ignoring its responsibility to report on the matter. Obama is over a year late in releasing its Time Usage in the Federal Government Report, a report that tracks all the time that government union members spend working for the union bosses on the dime of the people....
Judge Prosser Declared Winner, Left Loses BIG In Wisconsin Union Fight
2011-04-18 18:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston A county canvas of votes for Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice is finished and the result shows that Judge David Prosser, a 12-year veteran of the courts, won reelection over his union-backed opponent. Judge David Prosser's total now officially stands at 752,323 votes to challenger Joanne F. Kloppenburg's 745,007. This spread represents a 0.488% margin and at less than .5% state law provides for a recount effort that does not require a filing fee. Prosser's campaign issued a press release saying they were all "very excited" over the results. His challenger said that she will fall back and try to make a decision if they will bother to file for a recount....

Nat'l Teachers Union Chief Steals Reporter's Story for Speech Wit
2011-04-12 17:20:00 -By Warner Todd Huston I guess being the president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) means not having to do your own homework. Just ask AFT President Randi Weingarten. Weingarten was caught using verbatim and without attribution the work of a journalist from New York in a speech she gave a week ago. Usually this is called plagiarism and people get fired for doing it. Apparently, though, the president of a national teachers union... a teachers union... isn't held to the high standard that others (including students her union members supervise) are held to! When a journalist, politician or student uses someone else's words without attribution in a speech or a paper, it's called plagiarism - and it's often...
Wisconsin Union's Boycott Likely Illegal
2011-04-03 19:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Government union members of AFSCME Council 24 are circulating letters to local businesses in southeast Wisconsin threatening them that if they don't come to immediate and vocal support of government unions the businesses will be targeted for attack. The union says it won't be satisfied with statements of neutrality, either. An AFSCME spokesman told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that only full-throated support would keep the union from attacking businesses. The union told businesses that if they didn't put a sign in their store windows proclaiming their support of government unions, then the union would target the business. "Failure to do so will leave us no choice but (to) do a public boycott of your business. And...

While Illinois Citizens Lose Jobs, More Government Workers Get Union Protec
2011-03-30 16:48:00 -By Warner Todd Huston If this isn't just the way the most corrupt state in the country works, there's nothing that will show it.
