So what’s coming up next for the radicals?
A national organization of unions connected with The Communist Party USA are flooding Missouri with robocalls that include the voice of Barack Obama pushing the un-American card check legislation.
Local radio host Dana Loesch received this from one of her listeners:
Tonight, June 25, 2009, at 8:01pm CST, a VERY DISTURBING automated voice mail message was left on our answering machine from President Obama. The beginning of it was cut off, but here’s what I was able to transcribe:
Obama: “…strong labor movement. Unions put their shoulder behind the wheel and made life better for working people. I believe in unions.”
Announcer: “President Obama wants you to help raise wages and rebuild the middle class by joining a union. Thousands of workers in the St. Louis area are joining unions. Now is the time to join us. If you are interested in joining a union, please press 3. If you are not interested, please press 5. Now is the time to join us. If you are interested in joining a union, please press 3. If you are not interested, please press 5. Now is the time to join us. If you are interested in joining a union, please press 3. If you are not interested, please press 5. Thank you. For more information, call us at 1-866-784-3141.”
For some reason, it repeated the “Now is the time…” two more times before the call finally ended. I guess Obama wanted to make sure that my husband and I knew he wanted us to join a union.
I called the toll free number to find out who was behind this. I got an answering machine that identified the organization as “Change to Win”. It went on to thank me for my interest in wanting to organize a union.
Dana has more on the group behind the calls and discovered that this group has ties to The Communist Party USA.
UPDATE: (Saturday AM) I just received one of these robocalls this morning.
