For Sale: Professional Union Protesters and rabble rousers.
Wonder if they were low wage non-Unions members paid by the Unions to protest? Unions have done that before.

PHOENIX - Hundreds of people from a California labor union have made their way to Phoenix in protest of Senate Bill 1070.
A caravan of 11 buses carrying 500 members of the Laborers' International Union of North America (LIUNA) left L.A. Dodgers' stadium at 4 a.m.
The buses arrived in Phoenix around 1:30 p.m. at St. Matthews Church at 20th Avenue and Van Buren Street.
The activists are expected to meet with working Arizonans facing the states new immigration law.
They will march to the Arizona state Capitol and end their journey with a vigil there before returning to L.A.
The delegation will return to Dodger Stadium by midnight.
Petra Falcon, director of Promise Arizona and one of the events Arizona hosts, said she helped arrange the visit to draw attention to the passage of SB 1070 and other similar legislation in the context of the struggles of all working people.
ABC15's Angie Holdsworth was on the bus and will be reporting from the march throughout the late afternoon.
They (Laborers' International Union of North America (LIUNA)) are "meeting with WORKING ARIZONANS?"
Those people aren't ARIZONANS - THEY ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS! HOW DARE THEY SUGGEST THEY'RE ARIZONANS! ARIZONANS RESPECT THE LAW!
I was just getting ready to ask how is it that all these people can afford to take time off work and have the money to travel and protest?Quote:

maybe the union is giving them money to go protest.
Please God let the American people wake up.
My understanding is there are several Seiu members that are extremely po'd that their dues money is being spent on this
The Seiu is the illegal alien union and needs to be disbanded , the leaders arrested and sent to trial.
I hope they spend lots of money in the AZ economy - hotel rooms, food, etc.
Eliseo Medina, the big mouth SEIU illegal alien advocate, has met with Mexican gov't officials about the immigration issue. It's on the SEIU blog from June 17, last year. He then openly lobbies the US Congress. It is seriously against federal law for ANYONE to lobby the US Congress under foreign governmental control and not be registered as a lobbyist. I've asked for volunteers to scan for Mexican press releases, gov't reports..anything..that would help assemble further evidence. I've seen only one other story myself, a meeting with their foreign sec.Quote:
