SEIU loves Mike Castle- Should You?

Mike Castle, Election 2010, Christine O’Donnell, Delaware Senate Race, Politics, SEIU, Labor Unions

Mike Castle has been funded by labor organizations for a good reason.  He champions their causes better than 50% of the time.  One of the Labor Unions he has the closest ties to is the SEIU.  Mike Castle’s support of the SEIU, however, can be directly traced to the amount of money they gave him that year.  To date, Castle has received $30,000 from SEIU since 2000.  Ask yourselves if Mike Castle can be counted on to the the 41st vote that stops the Obama-Pelosi-Reid Lame Duck Congress from further ‘fundamentally transforming America’

Mike Castle is the presumed-to-be GOP nominee in the Delaware Senate Primary for this November’s Special Senate Election to fill the Joe Biden Seat.  This is a series on Mike Castle that details his unconstitutional, extreme left Liberal voting history.  If Mike Castle wins the GOP nomination in the Delaware Senate Primary race, Freedomists, Constitutionalists, will have no hope of stopping the Obama-Reid-Pelosi Lame Duck Congress from cramming Cap and Trade, Card Check, and many more extreme left programs through.

….    In the year 2000, Rep. Castle supported the interest of the SEIU  a whopping 0%.  But they donated $5,000 to him anyway, aren’t those leftist so sweet? The following year 2001, Mr. Castle’s support of the SEIU agenda shot up to 25% of the time, coincidence?

Let us look at the year 2002 where Mr. Castle had another change of heart and only supported the SEIU 10% of the time. But once again out of the goodness of their heart they donated $10,000 to Mr. Castle. And in 2003, that’s right, Mr. Castle’s support of the SEIU went back up to 21%. I just don’t understand this! What could be driving this strange pattern?  In 2004 he supported the SEIU 57% of the time and received$5,000, 2005 25% of the time , 2006 33% of the time and received $5,000, 2007 63% of the time and received $5,000 and of course in 2008 83% of the time and he only received $1000. It would seem as if Mr. Castle has climbed all the way aboard the SEIU funded bus. But maybe they are now holding the big bucks back until he goes all Arlen Spector on them and changes parties. Or maybe they know, what a lot of us know, Mike Castle will lose the GOP primary on Sept. 14th, so why should the SEIU waste their money?

…… Here are a few stats on Mr. Castle’s voting record on labor issues.

2009  Representative Castle supported the interests of the AFL-CIO 62 percent in 2009

2009  Representative Castle supported the interests of the American Federation of Government Employees 46 percent in 2009.

2009  Representative Castle supported the interests of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers 60 percent in 2009.

2008  Representative Castle supported the interests of the American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees 57 percent in 2008.

The Delaware Senate Race of 2010 is the most important Election this midterm cycle.  A true Constitutional Conservative could take a seat in the Senate immediately.  This one seat could derail the Obama-Reid-Pelosi plans to cram through Obama’s Leftist agenda with a Lame-Duck Congress.  The Freedomist recognizes only one candidate in the Delaware Senate Race who can fill this role, Christine O’Donnell.  To that end, we are producing this series of articles on her first opponent, Mike Castle, in the GOP primary.  We encourage fellow Freedomists to share information on the details of this fundamental race for Freedom, the Delaware Senate Race.
