Letter to the editor: A union by another name?

Albany

Gov. Walker has shown us that he dislikes unions. That is labor unions. However, there seems to be a union that he likes very much. This union seems to have Gov. Walker in its back pocket, so to speak, because they are willing to donate thousands and thousands of dollars to keep him in office. Evidentially, this organization will not even admit that it is a union because they will only call themselves the Wisconsin Manufacturer and Commerce (UMC). Yes, this group, like the definition of a union, is a group of individuals or organizations bonding together to improve their situations and/or bargaining power. Perhaps we had better keep its information from Gov. Walker and his Republican cronies or they may very well hamstring this union like they did the labor unions.

No, Gov. Walker is much too smart. He would never cut off this pipe line of campaign funding for him and his wealthy buddies.

They only way to stop his attack on the working folk is to vote these greedy people out of office. If we allow money to continue buying our legislators, we may will return to the oppressive situation our founding fathers left behind when they founded this great nation.

Who's union will be next, the farmers union, the NTO, The Farm Bureau, Landmark, Cenex, the League of Municipalities or any person or group who need to band together to resist the "Big Money Boys?" Think about that.
