The pains of our labor!

Only 15 % of the nation’s voters view Labor Day as important. I hope all that read this today had a great holiday. I did and I did work. I labored!

I also have a friend who encouraged me to keep going with my writing and building the site. Thanks Glenn!

Most voters continue to favor the repeal of the nation’s health care law, but a plurality believes that repeal of the controversial law measure is unlikely. The latest Rasmussen Report’s national telephone survey finds that 56% of likely voters favor repeal of the law, with 45% who strongly favor it.

The Rasmussen Reports daily presidential tracking poll for Monday, Labor Day, reflects that 26% of the voters strongly approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. 46% strongly disapprove, giving the President an approval index rating of -20 that is a negative 20.

The last report that I featured, over a week ago, had the President at a negative 17. Good news for us, bad news for the Democrats and America.

Last week the FOX News dynamic poll said that 53% of voters did not think that the President should be re-elected. These are 56% of the people who vote and who have worked and who are still working in the work place. This 56% represents a part of the labor force who have seen what is happening and who understand what has happened by the ill fated policies of the president and his administration. The President will go on another tour this week to announce yet another jobs program, more government stimuli and more debt. They will say they didn’t spend enough and that the Republicans are the Party of NO!

What they don’t understand in Washington is that until business gets confidence in the president there will be no job growth and no economic growth. These 56% know what labor is, because they know the pains of their labor and they are ready to fire the CEO, they get it!

As we celebrated Labor Day, we celebrated the working men and women of this country. And as we celebrated the pains of their labor, Union officials were getting ready for an unprecedented effort to expand their coercive powers over America’s employees and America’s employers.

Their goal is to expand the number of workers forced to pay union dues or fees and accept mandatory union representation, just to keep their jobs.

The Union Officials ambitious agenda goes beyond the scope of any other political election and or midterm race. By their own words, big labor officials are gearing up for their most aggressive midterm election political blitz ever. Remember, a great part of that stimulus money went to unions and some of that money will go towards this blitz.

They are focused on a series of unprecedented power grabs and pay backs. This should send shivers up any workers spine. The National Right to Work parties are mobilizing and will do what they can to combat these efforts. Throughout this country, there are more than 12 million American workers who are forced to pay union dues, as a condition of keeping their jobs. Sadly, many workers feel they have no choice, but to pay for organized labor’s extensive political activities, while others are still unaware of their right to object.

The start to the political season is upon us. It is up to all of us to start objecting, it is the American thing to do. It will be the pains of our labor that will provide a victory this fall.
