    Union Leader Criticized for Threatening Legal Action Over Boy Scout's

    SEIU threatens Boy Scouts. What a bunch of thugs.


    A Pennsylvania union leader has come under fire after threatening legal action against the city of Allentown for allowing a Boy Scout to voluntarily clear a walking path in a local park.

    Nick Balzano, president of the Service Employees International Union's Allentown chapter, said last week that the union might file a grievance against the city for allowing 17-year-old Kevin Anderson to clear the hiking trail, instead of paying some of the 39 recently laid-off SEIU members to do the work.

    You know it's a sad state of affairs when Unions are protesting Boy Scouts. Next they'll want to unionize the scouts and make them demand payment for earning merit badges with bonuses for over-quota badges and a retirement package if the scout makes Eagle.

    It's been entertaining watching liberals defend the unions on this one.
    Ever wonder why Liberals are called "the left" and Conservatives are called "the right"?

    Yeah, because paying a union guy $45 an hour plus benefits to clean a hiking trail is great for taxpayers. Boy Scouts and inmates clean roads and trails here, the unions would have a cerebral hemorrhage.

    The Free to Work States are sounding real good, even if it allows some illegal immigrant to work.
