At first, this would mainly hurt right-to-work states, as they would no longer be able to lure new businesses from existing unionized firms. But over the long run, this policy would hurt unions and all Americans. Why would any domestic company choose to build a factory in a forced-union state if it knew that meant it could never expand to a right-to-work state? Why would any international firm invest anywhere in this country if it knew the White House would favor political allies?

And what is on WJS about this. (Unfortunately, one has to have an account to read the whole article.)

Timing Is Everything

Hot Air has an excellent article and a video by FreedomWorks depicting current events and government policies against the backdrop of the just released movie, Atlas Shrugs Part 1.

At the moment, there are only three locations here in Maryland showing the movie. If you live in or near Annapolis, Gaithersburg or Bethesda, you have better luck than most of us to go see it.

There just might be more theaters showing this movie, if we are lucky.

Incompetence From the Top Down

Posted on April 10, 2011 | Leave a comment

April Fools has been over for a bit.

So why would the White House think we would find their tacit admission that their 2012 budget plan wasn’t serious – funny?

This is beyond infuriating. This is unconscionable, ill-conceived, unwarranted and – to me – treasonous to the extreme since it detrimentally affects every – single – living (and yet to be) American in this country.

UPDATE: Putting the Record Straight

Regarding the Thuggery in Wisconsin, and elsewhere.

Make no mistake: The knock-down, drag-out battle in Wisconsin is based on total self-interest, pushing for past privileges, recast as workers’ “rights” that ultimately could bankrupt that state. One would think “collective bargaining rights” are immutable, found in the Bill of Rights, or in The Universal Rights of Man, to hear the public union officials and their lackeys in the Legislature. It is simply not so.

Gary Larson is quite right.

UPDATE: And in Washington state we have this:

Our Way of Life and Freedom is at Risk

George Soros keeps funding meetings and organizations bent on “reforming” the entire, global, financial system.
Particularly, and especially the United States.

Think it’s bad now? Just you wait. The media, and government, doesn’t care about this – their silence implies consent and agreement.

America’s Energy Future

Posted on April 6, 2011 | 1 comment

Depends on to whom you speak, or listen to.

Like – our own U.S. President Barack Obama at a town hall about clean energy while visiting Gamesa Technology Corporation in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, today – April 6, 2011.

Oh – there’s more – at GatewayPundit. Jim Hoft points out that the POTUS was extolling this future energy source by the company (Spanish owned) that received a bailout.

Oh, also, don’t miss that last link (here it is also) that points out a report that windmills aren’t really that helpful. Useless, I think they said. But if you really want something to watch, try this – where a windmill destroys itself and adjacent property.

Not to mention the fact that when such machinery is installed in (much too) northern latitudes – ice formation can be extremely deadly, or just keep them from spinning. In any case, expensive windmills won’t offer much in the wrong place, if at all.

Hear that, Maryland Governor O’Malley? General Assembly?
