I'm Shocked, Shocked I Say! Posted by bulldogpundit Ankle Biting Pundits Saturday, 18 February 2006 I cannot describe to you the shock and awe I felt when I read Bob Novak's latest column which reveals that: <<< The first documents received from unions in the Labor Department's demand for detailed financial disclosures, for the first time strictly enforcing the 1959 Landrum-Griffin labor reform act, suggest embarrassment by organized labor when the information is made public next month. Early reports show the AFL-CIO spent $49 million (27 percent of its total annual budget) on political and lobbying activities but only $30 million (or 16.5 percent) to represent its members. >>> Geez, I thought unions were all about the "brotherhood". And I'd really be interested to see how much money would dry up if members had "paycheck protection" in which they could direct that none of their dues go to political and lobbying activities - especially since nearly all of those dues go to Democrat candidates and causes. anklebitingpundits.com townhall.com
