Not only did the Nurses Union pay them, they transported them from all around the country and paid for their meals. But really, nothing to see here, it’s just like the Tea Party:

On November 3rd, 2011, the National Nurses United Union, allied with the AFL-CIO, payed for the expenses of more than 1000+ members to march with Occupy DC and ask the President to raise taxes. Both public and private hospitals must have gone short staffed as the nurses hailed from all over the country and were very clear who brought them there.

Communism is the opiate of the intellectuals with no cure except as a guillotine might be called a cure for dandruff.

FOund this bit of info on the FOX News site, from a commenter:

"Do you know the park in NYC that the Wall Street protesters are occupying?

It's Zuccotti Park.

Did you know this park is not owned by the city of New York?

It is owned by Brookfield Properties.

Who was just hired by Brookfield Properties as an attorney?

Vice President Joe Biden's son.

Who sits on the board of Brookfield Properties?

Mayor Bloomberg's live in girlfriend.

Now, guess what company just received some of the last of the Obama Stimulus $.

That's right, Brookfield Properties."

Something stinks there, moreso than the protesters.

Then, this commenter continues:

"Now on completely unrelated note but equally curious.

Wisconsin is shaping up to be the swing state in the 2012 presidential elections.

Not Florida, not Ohio, but Wisconsin.

Now guess who owns the company that will be tabulating the electronic votes in Wisconsin.

The largest contributor to the Obama Presidential campainge, George Soros."

Ahhhhh...the puppet master, hard at work. Isn't it ironic that there is another recall motion put forward for Gov. Walker?

"Wealth, better work environments with shorter work hours, and higher pay for labor existed in the private sector in Europe and the USA a long time before union rabble rousing came onto the scene."

Do you know anything about early 20th century US history?

What is the big deal about this? The union sympathized with the political cause and made it easy for its members who wanted to participate to do so.

Aren't unions supposed to do these sorts of things? i.e. promote things that are in the interest of their members... it's clear that this is a cause that has huge sympathy among the rank and file (since certainly nobody in the video seems to be forced).

Ya know, the unions are much better organized than our elected government or the big government bureaucracies so why don't we just cut out those inefficiencies and have the unions run all of our governments [city,county,state and federal]?
