5/16/13, "The Liberal Union Behind the IRS, Jeffrey Lord, American Spectator
"Obama, IG Report refuse to touch powerful Treasury Employees
Union headed by ex-IRS agent."
"The IRS? It’s about a union: the National Treasury Employees Union. The
NTEU. A left-wing union representing 150,000 employees in 31
separate government agencies, including the IRS. A union that not
only endorsed President Obama for election and re-election, but a
union whose current president, Colleen Kelly, was a 14-year IRS
agent and now is both union president and Obama administration
appointee (of which more in a moment).
It’s about 94% of NTEU union contributions going to Democrats in
the Senate and House in 2012 — candidates who campaigned as
vociferous opponents of the Tea Party.
And the recently released report from the Treasury Inspector
General? You will not find a single reference to the NTEU. Whose
members are both player and referee in the exploding controversy
over the IRS targeting of conservative groups.
Which raises the obvious question: how many NTEU members were
involved in the writing of the Inspector General’s report?
Even more to the point, what contact — what coordination — has
the Obama White House had with their allies in the NTEU
leadership as both the White House and the NTEU race to get on top
of a scandal that is rapidly engulfing both?
Did I mention that the NTEU has no comment on all of this? And
that when President Obama went in front of cameras to make his
statement on the IRS scandal — he never once mentioned his very
powerful union buddies that have the run of the IRS? Right
down to the control of who gets a Blackberry? Literally."...via Free Republic

Ed. note: This wouldn't be so bad if we the people had a union too so we were all on equal footing, but we don't.
