A brouhaha over a Boy Scout and his Eagle Scout project has brought down a local union leader. Nick Balzano has stepped down as head of the local Service Employees International Union. Balzano was roundly criticized for crying foul over a Boy Scout's effort to clear a walking path in a park in Allentown. He said the project was taking work away from union workers. Six other high-ranking members of the union have also resigned.

At least one brain cell was still firing. This union-loser did the right thing. Now if he would just hide in his basement forever.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Good riddance to bad rubbish I say.

My father always referred to unions as “The Great Society For The Advancement Of Mediocrity”.

[jafojeffsurf]

Tell me, Did they apologizes? If not then as far as I am concerned it is not over yet.

[Sodbuster09]

Sounds phony to me. Why would they give up their livelihood over a flap like that. I can see to dodohead, but the other 6? Sounds odd.

[Ex-Democrat Dean]

There is some hope for this country after all!

[hsalaw]

What? This guy complained because the Boy Scouts cleared a walking path? Union people are freaking insane.

You expect an apology from a “Progressive” to an evil bigoted Boy Scout. Surely you jest. < / sarc

[Crim]

Not all of us...

I suspect the membership was embarrassed more than anything...they wouldnt surrender office unless there was an inside stink....

[swheats]

Leader plus 6 other high ranking members resigned. That's impressive. The eagle scout is the least of their worries right now.

This is from Biggovernment.com Whistleblower Video Reveals SEIU Ballot Fraud.

[ThomasThomas]

How much to they get paid after they resign?

"they wouldnt surrender office unless there was an inside stink...."


I bet they just got slid over into the International or somesuch- they wouldn't leave these clowns jobless.

[Crim]

You win a cookie...

International is where you go after you’ve pissed off the entire local...

This is SEIU though...lyin purple people beaters...

It was a rediculous claim in the first place...they should have lauded the youth for volunteering...

Idiots.

[Publius6961]

Why didn't the SEIU thugs just beat the Scout to a pulp?

Isn't that the normal solution in their Union Thug Manual?

[BenKenobi]

What, we still have a union member here?! I thought they were all purged.

[jafojeffsurf]

Yep it will come right after Pig are spotted flying over the white House!

[Ann Archy]

WOW! One down and a MILLION to go!!! SEIU is the VILEST of the Unions.

Thanks, Just watched that video. This is our future (for local and national government elections) if we do not stop whats going on and it will not stop at threats it will get physical for sure.
