Union Legal Thuggery, Feckless GOP

Union Legal Thuggery, Feckless GOP — The Philadelphia Inquirer, proving blind squirrels can occasionally find nuts, carried a big, bold front-page banner headline on Feb. 26 concerning how unions are exempt from state harassment and stalking laws.

The story described how union minions followed Sarina Rose, a mom who is an executive at developers Post Brothers, heaping abuse on her at a crowded restaurant and taking photos of her children at a school bus stop.

The Inquirer was appropriately outraged.

It’s been almost a week since the story. Where has been the Republican response? The union-controlled Democrats obviously want the matter to disappear and it will unless the GOP doesn’t let it.

So where are the Republicans? Where is Gov. Tom “Gonna Lose Big” Corbett’s statement of condemnation and proposal for what should be a rather minor but overwhelmingly popular change in law the GOP-controlled legislature should have no trouble passing?

Where is their willingness to make an issue of something the union-controlled Democrats would find impossible to support yet impossible to defend?

The lack of action on what should be a no-brainer opportunity is a perfect example as to why a huge percent of the GOP constituency is apoplectic at the party leadership.

Things Tween Gurls Know That You Don’t

In the “Things Tween Gurls Know That You Don’t” category chalk up the tidbit that a disproportionate number, perhaps most, of the pop hits by female “artists” such as Avril Lavigne, Kate Perry, Pink and Kelly Clarkson were written by Martin “Max Martin” Sandberg of Sweden and Lukasz Sebastian “Dr Luke” Gottwald, an American who is the son of a Polish immigrant.

A common theme of the music is “strong”, “independent” womanhood through promiscuity and exhibitionism.

In the “Things You Know That Tween Girls Don’t” category chalk up the tidbit that the music is pretty bad and, well, rather manipulative.

Cass Sunstein Internet Dream Comes True?

Cass Sunstein, the Obama confident who once headed the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, has gotten his wish according to Glenn Greenwald writing at The Intercept at FirstLook.org.

Sunstein –who defended Bill Clinton against impeachment and George W. Bush for the Military Commissions Act of 2006 before working for Obama, and who believes the First Amendment should be rewritten —  notoriously proposed in 2008 having government agents infiltrate online groups and political websites to direct public opinion.

Greenwald, the journalist to whom whistleblower Eric Snowden leaked documents showing that policies were secretly changed to allow government spying on U.S. citizens, notes that the documents show that Sunstein’s plan has been implemented —  and in a way that follows rather sophisticated psychological principles with the goal of discrediting people and destroying reputations.

Like, well, Snowden’s. And Greenwald’s.

Who exactly can one trust one wonders.

In a quasi-related matter, a fellow who was using the Twitter handle @GSElevator and tweeting alleged juicy first-hand tidbit involving Goldman Sachs was found to be a resident of Texas with nothing to do with the New York-based investment banking house and cradle  of treasury secretaries and corrupt New Jersey governors.

The funny thing is that a whole lot of people in the New York financial community who are assumed to be super savvy and smart, believed him.

Just some things to mull around.

Frightened Union Bosses Sic Minions

An AFP Pennsylvania event concerning paycheck protection in Warminister a few days ago was disrupted by flying monkeys sent by union leaders. Speakers were shouted down and filthy language was directed at those interested in what was to be said.

Police were called to escort the AFP people from the building. Jennifers Stefano, the speaker, found two tires slashed on her car.

Paycheck protection means union dues are forbidden from being automatically deducted from paychecks. In other words, if the union bosses want to keep their sweet salaries they have to convince their members to donate voluntarily, which means they have actually work for the issues that will help them.

Mrs. Stefano, a mom, says remaining townhalls are being rescheduled to address security concerns.

Below is a snippet of video taken at the Warminister event.
