SCOTUS Derails the Democrats' SEIU Gravy Train

Some days, things just work out right. Last Thursday was one of those days for conservatives. It was a day of reckoning for the Service Employees International Union and the Democratic politicians they use our tax dollars to buy and pay for. And it was a day the United States Supreme Court stood strong for our First Amendment rights.

<snip>

What happened instead was a well-deserved disaster for public employee unions and the Democratic Party they brag they own. Predictably, Alito's opinion, joined by Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas, and Kennedy, held that the SEIU had violated non-members' First Amendment rights by forcing them to fund its political operations against their will. That's bad for the SEIU, and it's bad for the Democrats, because it threatens the political alchemy lab where they turn tax dollars into public employee salaries, salaries into union dues, and union dues into lavish spending on Democratic campaigns. But it gets worse. Justices Sotomayor and Ginsburg broke ranks with the progressives, supporting the majority decision in a concurrence by Sotomayor. Only Justices Breyer and Kagan toed the party line.

<snip>

Make no mistake. Thursday was a very bad day for the public employee unions and the Democratic Party. How ironic that the SEIU's victory in its war against Proposition 75 has led to defeat not only in California, but in the entire United States. And how appropriate that the SEIU's bad faith has become the poster child for the "opt-in" system of non-member exemptions.

Obama's war against the states and disrespect for the Judiciary and the Congress makes him more and more a tyrant in the making. He needs to be stopped and retired in November.

Hey philips. Did you know that in addition to resident obama being raised a sunni moslum and that the moslum brotherhood is sunni moslum and the mosulm brotherhood has now taken over Egypt...Now the opposition in Syria is sunni moslum. Wow what a coincidence right kenny?
Resident obama used American military to help moslum brotherhood gain power in Egypt.

Now the sunni moslum rebels in Syria are telling all Christians to get out.

So what do you think will happen to Coptic Christians in Egypt?
