Big Labor Hides Behind National Security Issue to Boost Their Own Agenda to get Democrats Elected

Last week, I got a robo-call from someone claiming to be a widow of a twin towers bombing victirm. Maybe it was even one of the so-called Jersey Girls, but I'm not sure. She mentioned the importance of voting and disparaged republicans etc., so it was obvious they were trying to push people toward democrats. The ad turned out to be sponsored by the AFL-CIO. I live in the 8th District, which is currently represented by Congressman Dave Reichert and being challenged by inexperienced Darcy Burner.

Today I get a robo-call from infamous Democrat Congressman Jack Murtha, discussing what is basically a veiled appeal to cut-and-run to bring the troops home. This ad was also sponsored by the AFL-CIO.

The truth of all this is that the AFL-CIO is of course really all about Big Labor and nothing more. Their aim is to garner as much power for themselves and Big Labor as possible. The organization is not about national security. Yet, here they are, hiding behind September 11th and national security as though they are about any of that, when they are surely not.

If these Big Labor auto-calls were about actual labor-related issues, this post would not have been written. However, I expect that this won't be the last such call; and it needs to be pointed out what's going on with the discrepancy that exists between the AFL-CIO's real agenda, vs. the fig leaf they are trying to hide behind in these election calls. It is essentially a bait-and-switch attempt to deceive americans into voting their way and needs to be called out

1. I see you have had the same calls I have. I didn't see your post before I finished mine.

The fact that big labor is able to use dues from it's members to put out propaganda is really irritating.

Kristen Breitweiser is one of the 4 Jersey girls that insinuated themselves into the political fray but, don't want to be questioned because they are widows!

Big labor does like to hide behind victims, because they can't stand the light of day on their activities and plans.
