Did You Know - Bush Hates People

President Bush and his administration are more interested in protecting you from the AFL/CIO than they are in protecting your from al Quaeda. Read the following and think about what I just said.

HOMELAND SECURITY -- WHITE HOUSE THREATENS TO VETO COUNTERTERRORISM BILL IF IT CONTAINS LABOR PROTECTIONS: Yesterday, the Senate began debate on legislation that would strengthen homeland security by enacting recommendations of the 9/11 Commission. The legislation includes provisions that would let states delay adopting standardized drivers' licenses and means to better secure cargo entering the nation. The bill, however, faces a rocky road ahead as the White House declared it would veto the bill if it contains language that would allow Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees to unionize. Led by Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), 36 conservative senators have pledged to sustain President Bush's veto, enough to prevent a congressional override. "Under the proposal, the security officers would not have the right to strike , and the union would not have the power to negotiate wages. But it would be authorized to bargain on their behalf to establish work rules to govern overtime and temporary transfers, and to protect them if they file a grievance." Currently the Department of Homeland Security, which houses TSA, has the unhappiest workers in the federal government . TSA employees are frequently required to work unscheduled overtime , suffer from a 30 percent illness and injury rate compared to 5 percent for all federal employees, and have an attrition rate 10 times higher than the federal average.
