  • Kurwa, thy name is fool.

  • Where is the SEIU side of the story? The above posting is mainly taken word-for-word from the Sodexo corporate press release, although the Blaze doesn’t tell you that. Don’t you care that only one side is being presented here? How intellectually dishonest of the Blaze…

    Here is the other side omitted by the Blaze:

    WASHINGTON, March 18, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The following is a statement by Service Employees International Union on the lawsuit filed by Sodexo:

    The suit filed by French company Sodexo is bogus litigation meant to deprive workers of the right to bargain collectively with their employers and undermines the middle class in the United States. It is not about which union represents Sodexo workers, but about whether Sodexo workers can bargain collectively at all.

    Collective bargaining and union representation are under attack in the United States. Already, Gov. Scott Walker has severely limited the collective bargaining rights of public employees in Wisconsin. Conservative groups, such as the Koch brothers’ Americans for Prosperity, are financing and running campaigns to undermine unions in the United States and end collective bargaining for U.S. workers. Hunton & Williams, Sodexo’s law firm, is at the forefront of the assault on American workers. Public documents show that Hunton & Williams retained three cybersecurity vendors to run a “dirty tricks” campaign designed to discredit SEIU and others. The proposed tactics included using fraudulent documents to discredit members of the labor movement and using illegal tactics to spy on SEIU and other “enemies” of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Nowhere in the discussions made public did Hunton & Williams question these tactics.

    Over the past year, Sodexo has engaged in anti-union activity both here and in other countries to stop their employees from gaining the right to collectively bargain. In Colombia, they failed to enter into collective bargaining discussions with workers despite an order by the Colombian minister of Social Protection to do so by Feb. 13. In the Dominican Republic, they failed to attend mediation called by the Secretary for Labor’s Director of Mediation and Conciliation to establish collective bargaining rights for workers. In Morocco, workers who have spoken out about unfair labor conditions have been fired, interrogated and spied upon.

    In the United States, Sodexo recently agreed to settle a free speech case before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). Under the settlement agreement, the company is required to issue a new media policy that does not infringe upon the right of workers to speak to the public about their working conditions and workplace issues. Other charges being investigated include an illegal firing, interrogation, surveillance and threats. This activity is the basis of at least five unfair labor practice charges against Sodexo that are pending before the NLRB. In seven other cases, Sodexo—faced with the threat of government action—settled a wide range of charges related to unlawful interference with workers’ legally protected rights.

    You think? Of course, he’s the teflon president. Nothing sticks – at least not yet.

    Its been said that the eyes are the mirror or the soul. Look in the eyes of this putrid judge – you’ll see the deceit and lies hidden within. She knows her ruling is wrong, but, owes her soul to the unions and dems.

    God help us. We sit back, post on message boards, and yet do nothing to stop this tyranny.

    Bernie Madoff should be proud of the unions. They are kindred spirits in ponzi schemes.

    LOL. I’m a Buckeye and find this funny. Poor Bengals and Browns. But, at least we have our OSU Buckeyes to cheer!

  • West and Christie on the same ticket is like mixing oil and water. DO your homework – Christie appointed a radical Muslim to the NJ Supreme Court. He’s very liberal on most policies except fiscal.

    And, 2 men from the same state could never win – meaning West and Rubio. I love Allen West, and feel we can’t wait for 2016 for him to be ready to be President. Our country is on the brink of destruction.

    He has more experience than obama did, so, he shouldn’t feel inexperienced for the position. He has my vote.

  • West, yes – Christie – no.

  • He already has negatives on his record, and some very serious ones which means he would never get my vote. We already have a muslim lover in the WH, we don’t need a duplicate with an R after his name.

  • I think most of us are hungry for someone who talks back, and Christie does that. However, in our haste for obama to be ousted in 2012, we need to look at a person’s entire ideas and record. Christie endorsed Mike Castle in DE over a true conservative. Granted, she may not have been the strongest candidate, but, to endorse one of the most liberal of libs is rephrensible.

    Look at his record on cap and trade. He may be a fiscal hawk, but, he is just obama lite with a bigger mouth. And, it seems he also has a soft spot for the muslims. No thank you Chrisite. Stay in NJ, that’s where you belong.

    He is becoming annoying with his own self-worth, and refuses to go on conservative talk shows.
    what does this tell you?

    And, for those who want to bash Palin for her decision to step down as governor, what she did was for the good of her state. THe obama administration was behind trying to bankrupt her and her family with frivolous ethics complaints. Make no mistake about it. THey saw how her crowds equaled obama’s during the 2008 election. They know she can go toe to toe with him.

    No, no, no to Christie.
