TSA Goons Get The OK

Air Travel More Fun?
If you think that air travel is bad now, just wait! The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) just got the Big Government "nod" of approval from their boss John Pistole to be able to unionize. This will add 63,000 new union members making union leadership at the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) thankful for the new dues payers. Is this what Congress wanted when they formed TSA?

Probably, because the Democrats were behind the push to federalize airport screening in 2001. They had the goal in mind of augmenting the union rolls with literally thousands of new dues paying members. Why was this on their agenda?

What's Wrong With That?
Before you go and say there's nothing wrong with the government departments unionizing, stop a minute. The Democrats receive major campaign funding from the labor and trade unions - that's why! This is no coincidence at all. It just builds more contributing dollars into the DEMs Good-Old-Boy network for reelection. It SMELLS like DEAD FISH!

To add insult to injury, John Pistole has banned airports from privatizing airport screening. After unionizing, any changes in screening will have to be negotiated with the new union members. In other words, we will need to get the union's permission to make changes.

Government unions have no effective check or balances. They don't have to deal with "management" bossing them around. This is a BAD move all around.

Once again the Obama administration is putting their political needs over America's security.
