Former DNC Chair Howard Dean: 'Labor Unions Are Super-Pacs Democrats Like'
PJ Media ^ | 02/05/2016 | Stephen Kruiser

Former Gov. Howard Dean (D-Vt.) said Friday that Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) should not boast about his freedom from super-PACs given his ties with organized labor.

'I don't hear anybody asking Bernie Sanders for transcripts of some speech he made for a labor union,' he told host Andrea Mitchell on "MSNBC Live."

"For Bernie to say he doesn't have a super-PAC…labor unions are super-PACs. Labor unions are super-PACs Democrats like so we don't go after labor unions."

Blind pig also enrages many on the far left. So this is not a net plus for Hillary in any way.

the truth strikes dean again. as i’ve said many times before here and elsewhere, public and private unions are one of the legs propping the leftist/statist stool (pun intended), the others being the uniparty elite, and the federal schools.

until one or more of those legs are removed from power, nothing will change.

What do you call it when a politician accidentally tells the truth?

If the mindless DemocRats could think, they would see that Bernie is a communist and if he is true to the credo, he is true to the anti-capitalist agenda that would destroy the sources of money that pay labor unions......but that takes critical thinking. Forget about it.

And do you think the GOP will take advantage of this free fodder? Answer not necessary.

The super Pacs Democrats love.
The same reason Democrats hate right to work where the proles don’t have to forcibly ‘’donate’’ to Democrats.

And .. UNIONS are the ones who have been infecting the FR threads ever since the campaigning started.

They operate just as the McCainiacs did .. repeating the same drool stuff over and over and over and over .. until I no longer even go on those threads, and I no longer care what they have to say .. BECAUSE IT’S NOTHING BUT LIES.

And .. this is why we MUST STOP THE UNION’S STRANGLEHOLD OVER OUR GOVERNMENT.
