Shadowy Lobbying Campaign Airs Political Ad During The Super BowlThe ad part of a $10 million campaign by Berman to promote anti-union legislation depicts several men working in a repair shop, talking about being sick of having to pay union dues. The narrator claims, only ten percent of people in unions today actually voted to join the union.

(32,342 posts)The arch-nemesis of union members everywhere. I saw the headline for this story on Facebook hours ago, but hadn't read it all yet. I still remember the day someone tried to use one of his websites here to "prove" something about teachers' unions. I went totally apeshit. Figures he'd be pals with Orrin Hatch. Barf.

(6 posts)Senator Hatch is not for the working man. What about his 17 votes to increase the debt ceiling? Laying the burden of all the ridiculous Government exploits onto the people? What about his support for the Auto and Bank bailouts? Plundering property from some to benefit his buddies? This is no different than Obama promising the mass of irresponsible people that he'll continue giving them handouts at the expense of others. Senator Hatch is a Political Crony- he's been voting far right recently only because his colleague was ousted in 2010 by the Tea Party for not being Conservative enough- and now they're going after him.
