Republican Traitors Fail Again – Forced Unionism Did Not Pass

Union bosses, through their cohorts in Congress, want to force airline and railway workers into unions. Luckily their amendment to the FAA bill (HR 658) failed to pass in the House on Friday by a 220 to 206 vote.

Every Democrat voted for the LaTourette/Costello amendment; no surprise there. However, 16 Republican Congressmen voted for the amendment. These Republicans stand against freedom and they stand with the fat-cat union bosses who want to eliminate freedom and choice for American workers.

Currently, American workers enjoy the freedom to form a union or join a union – it’s their choice. Democrats and these 16 Republicans want to take away their right to choose and force them to be in a union if they want the job.

HEADLINE: Sullivan, MO – [August 31, 2009] – “I’m Going To Go To Washington And Knock On Their Doors”

8th District Congressional Candidate Bob Parker appeared before a crowd of over 300 gathered Sunday at the Sullivan, MO fairgrounds for a Statewide Pink Slip Rally intended to highlight frustrations with elected officials who support controversial legislation such as a proposed health care control bill, cap and trade, and bills regarding agricultural and property rights issues. Parker spoke of his motivations for his Congressional campaign.

“I’ve been working on the Animal I.D. program [NAIS] in the state for the last 4 years. I found out about that and got the facts on it. Now they’ve changed the name…it’s now food safety. H.R. 2749 already passed [the U.S. House]…you need to get educated.” Parker continued, “I went to a farm tour that our Representative had, and she said, ‘We really dodged a bullet on H.R. 2749…NAIS isn’t in it.’ Well, she’s wrong…it IS in it.”

As he acknowledged the frustration felt by many Americans over the unconstitutional bailout spending of the last year, and enlarging on the remarks of another speaker, the Texas County Republican said,

“A lot of us conservatives have not done a good job knocking on doors.”

The Statewide Pink Slip Rally was hosted by the Sullivan 9/12 group, an organization begun by conservative commentator Glenn Beck to promote conservative principles and values. The group brought together multiple speakers from grassroots liberty organizations as well as candidates for state as well as federal offices.

Parker concluded, “I want to go up there before they knock on my door, before they knock on my farm door to chip my animals, and I’m going to go to Washington to knock on THEIR doors.”
