In my speech on Saturday in Iowa, I said: “Between bailouts for Wall
Street cronies and stimulus projects for union bosses’ security and
‘green energy’ giveaways, [Barack Obama] took care of his friends. And
now they’re on course to raise a billion dollars for his re-election bid
so that they can do it all over again.” This was shamefully on display
yesterday at President Obama’s taxpayer-funded campaign rally in
Detroit. In introducing the President, Teamsters President James Hoffa
represented precisely what I was talking about as he declared war on
concerned independent Americans and on the freshman members we sent to
Congress last November by saying, “Let’s take these son-of-a-bitches
out!”
What I say now, I say as a proud former union member
and the wife, daughter, and sister of union members. So, as a former
card-carrying IBEW sister married to a proud former Laborers, IBEW, and
later USW member, please hear me out. What I have to say is for the hard
working, patriotic, selfless union brothers and sisters in Michigan and
throughout our country: Please don’t be taken in by union bosses’
thuggery like Jim Hoffa represented yesterday. Union bosses like this do
not have your best interests at heart. What they care about is their
own power and re-electing their friend Barack Obama so he will take care
of them to the detriment of everyone else.
