SEIU KNOX-OUT

THIS JUST IN SEIU KNOX'd OUT “ The court ruled for Dianne Knox and other nonmembers of the Service Employees International Union's Local 1000, who wanted to object and opt out of a $12 million special assessment the union required from its California public sector members for political campaigning. Knox and others said the union did not give them a legally required notice that the increase was coming. The union, and the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, said the annual notice that the union gives was sufficient. The high court disagreed in a 7-2 judgment written by Justice Samuel Alito. [Full AP] Not the Big One, but still important.  The SCOTUS today handed unions another set-back, and this is especially delicious because the primary was the SEIU, upon which Obama, and Demorats. are dependent for cash and field work.  The other thrill up my leg is that, for the 5,897,763rd time, by my count, The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was reversed. Note, I am surprised by the 7-2 decision:  I woulda guessed 5-4.  There have been a few more recent rulings the same way,where I was surprised over the libtard vote.  I can't help but worry that there is a quid pro quo at work here — by the liberal justices to gain the deciding vote in Obamacare (which looks like Monday). I know, silly.  But the Obamacare decision is the most important decision in SCOTUS history, IMO.  If they don't strike it down,  this nation  is unalterably changed.  So I worry.
