    Posted on Sep 08, 2008 by Kentuckians for Employee Freedom

    Watch this clip as Bruce Lunsford’s labor buddies screen questions about EFCA and refuse to allow the cameras to get near Bruce.  Don’t we want a U.S. Senator who will answer any questions posed to them by concerned citizens?  Apparently Bruce and his cronies only allow certain screened questions to be asked of him.  Bruce, […]

    Check out this video as Rep. Ben Chandler (D-KY) dodges the question and pokes fun at the KY Club for Growth after their Chairman questions his support for the card-check legislation. He must think it has something to do with the “living wage” as many times as he repeats that phrase. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCO8yApS_BQ[/youtube]

    Senator Mitch McConnell recently aired Bruce Lunsford’s dirty laundry and called him out on being in total lock-step with the AFL-CIO. Apparently Bruce agrees! While speaking at the Kentucky Farm Bureau forum in Louisville, McConnell warned farmers of Lunsford’s ties to union bosses stating that Bruce won’t be for trade agreements that will allow Kentucky […]

    In today’s Courier-Journal article John David Dyche challenges the candidates for U.S. Senate to answer some questions important to voters that have yet to be addressed during this campaign.

    Posted on Aug 18, 2008 by Kentuckians for Employee Freedom

    On Friday at a Lexington business forum, Warren Rogers asked Representative Ben Chandler about his support for “card-check” legislation. After Mr. Rogers explained the legislation and questioned why Chandler supported the measure in 2007, Chandler danced completely around the issue to avoid answering the question.

  • Liberal newspaper whines on behalf of Lunsford

    Posted on Aug 12, 2008 by Kentuckians for Employee Freedom

    It is amazing how the Courier-Journal continues to stick up for Bruce Lunsford. But I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. They’ve been serving as a mouthpiece for his campaign for some time now. In an article yesterday, they criticized the Employee Freedom Action Committee for educating voters on an issue that is important to the […]

  • Labor Bosses Continue to Stick Up for Lunsford

    Posted on Aug 06, 2008 by Kentuckians for Employee Freedom

The deceptively-named “Employee Free Choice […]
