Unions: Obama ‘gays in military’ moment?

Already, card-check opponents are warning that this could become the new president’s gays-in-the-military moment, an early and costly stumble by a neophyte President Clinton similarly fulfilling a campaign promise without fully appreciating the fierce opposition it would stoke.

I’m not surprised the the GOP and their corporate allies would be vehemently opposed to the Employee Free Choice Act. Yet, their attempt to paint this as the ‘gays in the military moment’ shows how disgusting and nasty they are. The Employee Free Choice Act is something that obviously would have more support across the nation than what Clinton went through in the 90′s I’d imagine.

I also think Fortune is wrong when they say “in the end, though, business’ best case against a bill that will make
unionizing companies easier can be summed up in one word: Detroit.” Fortune as does people like Senator Corker, Shelby &c. want to put the blame on the UAW for the failure that is the big three. The big three’s executives are the real failures and they truly deserve it. I would also have to grant that the cost of healthcare is a real problem as well. The UAW conceeded on things just to keep the industry afloat. Yet for Corker and others it wasn’t enough. Why don’t we just say it? Fortune magazine and the GOP are anti-union?
