Union B.S. #4: Piggish and Shameless: SEIU Flings Swine Flu GOP’s Way

no-bs1 Yes. You read the above right…

The absolutely shameless SEIU is tying the GOP to the swine flu panic.

According to Politico:

The Service Employees International Union has launched an online petition criticizing Republicans for delaying the confirmation of a Health and Human Services secretary in the face of a swine flu outbreak.

The union accuses Senate Republicans of delaying the confirmation of nominee Kathleen Sebelius to “curry favor with extremist outside groups” and depriving the department of leadership as the nation confronts a potential flu pandemic.

“This is simply unacceptable,” the union says on its website. “This disease is spreading as we speak, but right now, a Bush-appointed accountant is running the department. We need an HHS secretary NOW. Sign the petition telling the Senate to vote immediately to confirm Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. If we don’t act, the swine flu might just turn into another Hurricane Katrina.”

Hopefully, someone else sees the SEIU’s boarish [sic] behavior for what it is and call them out on it.
