Early in an opinion issued recently by a unanimous three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, Judge A. Raymond Randolphsaid: “Although the parties have not raised it, one issue needs to be resolved before we turn to the merits of the case.” The issue he raised but could not resolve — that is up to the Supreme Court — illuminates the Obama administration’s George Wallace-like lawlessness.

ReplyDeleteIt's really about the assault on labor unions, on the right of workers to obtain decent working conditions and wages.
For the past 40 years there's been an assault on labor unions by big business and their right-wing toadies in the judiciary and government.
We're seeing the result now....why should anyone moan and groan about the disappearing middle class after the success of such efforts?
Obama demonstrates that it is not only "right wingers" dismantling labor unions. It's all of them, right, left, and center.r
ReplyDeleteHow does Obama demonstrate this?
ReplyDeleteAppointing NLRB directors since Congress wouldn't?
Requiring businesses to post information about employee's right to form unions ?
Good luck on getting those better working conditions when employers can import all the scabs they could ever need to reduce US wages to the global mean. All with the enthusiastic applause of the multi-cult.
