Big Labor using union dues to protest CPAC

Apparently brain trusts at Big Labor think it is an appropriate and effective use of due’s money to pay protestors to picket a convention of conservatives.  The Daily Caller has discovered that “[P]rotesters at Friday’s “Occupy CPAC” event, organized by AFL-CIO and the Occupy DC movement, told The Daily Caller that they were paid “sixty bucks a head” to protest outside the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C. One protester told The Daily Caller that all the “Occupy” activists were being paid to protest, and that his union, Sheet Metal Workers Local 100, approached him about the money-making opportunity.  “I have nothing nice to say about Local 100. … They just told me ‘you wanna make sixty bucks? So c’mon,’” the protester said.
