Craig Becker has been tied in with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a labor union representing about 1.8 million workers,I believe SEIU is tight up with corrupted ACORN, Senator John McCain has put a hold on this Obama appointee,would Craig Becker be like putting another wolf in the already crowded hen house?


(Craig Becker Obama's appointee for National Labor Relations Board put on hold)


Sen. John McCain reiterated his case Thursday against President Obama's nominee to serve on the National Labor Relations Board, saying Craig Becker's controversial writings and legal advocacy work have outraged critics who say he supports unions at the expense of employer free speech and American businesses.
Becker, who currently serves as associate general counsel to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a labor union representing about 1.8 million workers, was approved by a 15-8 vote Wednesday in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.

But McCain and a slew of business groups are raising questions over articles and academic journals written by Becker on the very labor law he would work to interpret if confirmed to the board. Critics say Becker's writings reflect views that support restricting employers' free speech rights and limiting the ability of employers to converse with their employees during union representation campaigns.

That sounds about right. I saw this article and got upset right off the bat. But why in the world would we be surprised? It is only right that he find the most extreme idiots to make decisions.
