Pelosi praises law breaker; Senate website proves it

President Barack Obama praised Rep. Nancy Pelosi recently, presumably for what she did as Speaker of the House after Democrats took over Congress in November, 2006.

Dem rule lasted in the House until 2010. Dem rule still reigns in the US Senate and of course the White House.

Those last two sentences explain why the country’s in a constant hissy fit.

Anyway, Pelosi is all happy because Obama made appointments to the National Labor Relations Board as well as to Democrats’ latest big government monster, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Haley wins: Obama's Labor Board halts attack on Boeing in South Carolina

SC Governor Nikki Haley won a victory with the National Labor Relation's Board's close of the Boeing case. NLRB withdrew charges over Boeing's decision to build Dreamliners at a plant in South Carolina.

NLRB placed a statement on the government website that reeks of political rhetoric.

South Carolina is a non-forced unionism state.

Boeing's attack was based on complaints filed by the Machinists union in the state of Washington.

Ironically, if you do a search for Haley's statement, you'll come up with numerous news stories suggesting nothing was amiss.

Don't be fooled by legacy media so enamored of progressive causes.

Haley, a Republican and the state's first female governor,  fought this battle tooth and nail and she won.

Numerous conservative blogs like The US Report followed this story about big labor from the beginning.

It is likely Obama's NLRB made the decision with 2012 in mind. After all, if a president's policy is to kill jobs, it's hard for him to convince Main Street he wants to create jobs.

Haley issued a statement:

"Finally, today's actions confirm two things we've said all along: the NLRB is nothing more than a rogue agency run by the President's union backers; and that when the feds attack a company in South Carolina they can expect us to fight back, and expect us to win.”
