Big corporations, lobbyists, the well connected and current and former politicians push the ‘green’ agenda to make millions from duped taxpayers.

Richard Trumka, union thug and president of the AFL-CIO, ranted at Republicans in a speech at the 27th Ohio AFL-CIO Convention on September 14th. “Economic treason” and “Economic treachery” were terms he used to describe those reluctant to follow Obama and the Democrats into national bankruptcy by unions.

Democrat lobbyists like Fred Wertheimer, the president of Democracy 21, which has received heavy funding from George Soros’ Open Society Institute, the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Joyce Foundation, and the Pew Charitable Trusts want the DISCLOSE ACT pushed through before the November elections to stifle Republican campaign supporters but enable unions free reign.

In the mid 1960s, education policy took a wrong turn, away from America’s founding principles. That was when President Lyndon B. Johnson, as a part of his War on Poverty, created the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). It was the first major federal foray into local schools.

Politicians granting unsustainable government employee salaries, benefits and pensions is a problem everywhere, but the states with the strongest public-sector unions will have the hardest time correcting it.

Let us note that General Electric has been in Barack Obama’s corner from day one and has positioned itself to be a prime beneficiary of the massive green scheming of America that Obama and his allies in Congress are perpetrating across our nation (via taxpayer money, subsidies, loans, mandates, rules, and regulations — an EPA in overdrive).

About the last thing Obama wants, especially as his party faces heavy losses in congressional elections this November, is the subject of Trumka’s lengthy track record of aggression and corruption to come up.

A combative President Barack Obama rolled out a long-term jobs program Monday that would exceed $50 billion to rebuild roads, railways and runways, and coupled it with a blunt campaign-season assault on Republicans for causing Americans’ hard economic times.

Charles Krauthammer responded to President Obama’s latest announcement of a six year stimulus plan.. “Even Lenin stopped at five.”

President of the AFL-CIO claims not enough of the stimulus went to ‘infrastructure’ which would all be union jobs. Trumka has also made bizarre claims that Obama has created more jobs than Bush and that the US does not have a deficit problem.
