Now that's a party

Thanks to Ben DeGrow for seeing the wisdom in our name choice even before we saw it ourselves (we sleep late, especially after taking a few shots in Lodo).

In 2007, Rep. Udall (D-Boulder) co-sponsored the Employee Free Choice Act, an insidious bit of union sugar that would have eliminated secret ballots on votes to unionize. Turns out that just about 80% of everybody thinks that protecting one's anonymity in unionization votes is actually a fair thing.

Party On!

(The bill stalled in the Senate, failing a cloture motion. Its likely resuscitation should be reason enough not to vote for anyone who backs it.)

And who stands by Rep. Udall when 82% of all fellow Democrats jump ship?
That's right -  Communist Party USA
Commie party! Commie party! Commie party!

It gets better...

Rep. Udall's outstanding response to a constituent regarding his co-sponsorship of the EFCA (thanks to a watcher):

"... It seems to me that simply signing a card in front of a union organizer could provide the opportunity for undue influence. [duh] However, this concern has been overshadowed by reports of employers using heavy-handed tactics, including coercion and threats, to discourage unions from being formed." [huh?]

We learned something today. We learned that the most important thing is that those who oppose unions have the same opportunity to get their asses beat as those who support them. And that when unions do it, it's "undue influence" but when employers do it, it's "heavy-handed tactics, coercion and threats". Dude.

Take it away Johnny Sack...
