SEIU-Thug Chieftan Joins Georgetown Public Policy Institute

First let's have a history lesson.  I would hope that those in the Bethesda/Chevy Chase area remember this affront to their community inflicted by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU).  To recap, in May, they brought in 14 busloads of protesters to storm the front lawn and even the front porch of a Bank of America lawyer, ostensibly to "protest foreclosures".  They would up scaring the attorney's young son out of his wits and making a nuisance in the neighborhood.  I did blog about it just after it happened, and I suggest you review that posting.

What happened in May was nothing less than thuggish, mob-like terrorism.  Yes, I'll use that word!  I've no bones stating that SEIU are thugs and perhaps even terrorists.  Hey - if it looks and acts like a duck, it's probably a duck!

To this day, no one at the SEIU has issued any kind of apology or repudiation of that action.  They apparently embrace and support that action, as they have given no evidence to the contrary.  Dare I say that even the upper management of the SEIU are thugs since they seem to inculcate such behavior of their underlings?

Yesterday we received word that Andy Stern, past president of the SEIU, will join the Georgetown Public Policy Institute as a senior research fellow beginning August 1st.  In the words of Georgetown's press release, Stern "will conduct and coordinate research efforts on a number of social policy issues, including wage reform, labor policy, and retirement security.  He also will engage with the Georgetown community of students, faculty and alumni in a variety of ways, through guest lectures, workshops, and public events."

"Public events"?  Just what kind of "public events" might they have in mind?  Do they entail maurauding all over people's private property and terrorizing their children?  How about mob intimidation of those attending rallies, such as Tea Party gatherings?  Clearly Stern and his SEIU have some peculiar ideas of "social policy issues."

With this, the muslimization of Georgetown Hospital chapel and the debauchery at Santa Clara University (both blogged earlier this week), I'd say we have yet more evidence that the Jesuit order, as a whole, is a bit of a problem for the Church.

By the way - hats off to Pewsitter for the tip.
