"Behind Closed Doors Meetings by Democrats"

Senator Johnny Isakson can be found by visiting http://johnnyisakson.com/
Why did they lock the doors? I'll tell you why; it was because President Obama told them to. They knew this would be their best hope for cramming a "garbage bill" down all our throats. Nancy Pelosi, house speaker; did have and control if the Republicans attended or participated in many Legislative acts. Many, many meetings took place behind closed doors; locked doors but now we will see if she continues to get her way, personally I think she will thanks to you; the American people, Tea Partiers, and public opinion.

This incompetent, irresponsible Obama Administration has seen just a small amount of the American peoples anger when they try and force bigger government down your throats; with a crippled Economy, they try and put the Healthcare bill on taxpayers, without regard if the country could afford it or not, it does not matter to them, just as long as it becomes law.

 A milder version might be acceptable "if" the Economy was doing well; it's just according to what they might stick in it; oh'well; that too can be blocked, we would send them back to the initial drawing board.

The Obama Team acts like they are working on commission, "Hmmmm!" I will say no more on that before any accusations are made.

What's on Tap?

The Senate is scheduled to vote Monday on whether to end the debate on the nomination of Craig Becker to serve on the National Labor Relations Board. Later in the week, Senate Democrats are expected to reveal the details of a jobs bill they will offer.

Nomination of Craig Becker; Johnny Speaks Out

During an executive session of the Senate HELP Committee, I voted against the nomination of Craig Becker to serve on the National Labor Relations Board, because I believe Becker will use his position to bypass Congress and manipulate the federal regulatory process to favor labor unions if he is confirmed. The Senate HELP Committee approved Becker’s nomination by a 13-10 vote. Becker must now be confirmed by the full Senate, and no date has been set for the vote. I will vote against his confirmation.

It is clear that labor groups intend to use Craig Becker’s position on the NLRB to impose pro-union rules that they can’t get passed in Congress. For example, Stewart Acuff, chief of staff and assistant to the president of the Utility Workers Union of America, wrote yesterday in the Huffington Post that, “If we aren't able to pass the Employee Free Choice Act, we will work with President Obama and Vice President Biden and their appointees to the National Labor Relations Board to change the rules governing forming a union through administrative action.”

am strongly opposed to the so-called Employee Free Choice Act, also known as Card Check, which would eliminate the rights of workers to participate in a secret-ballot election in order to certify the creation of a union. Instead, the legislation would force employees to make a public declaration of their preference by allowing union organizers to bypass elections if a majority of employees sign cards authorizing a union.

The NLRB has a history of trying to maintain a delicate balance of current law on union organizing that provides advantages and restrictions for both sides. It is imperative that this balance continues, regardless of which party controls the White House. [You go get E'm Johnny]

***I would like to insert a few words here if I may; for anyone to go after the Labor Unions; and especially in the Senators re-election year; doing so rather aggressively I do add: is definately
my kind of man, and deserves my vote and continual support. *** 
  This very reason is why I support Senator Johnny Isakson. If anyone knows the power within the government the Labor Unions have; you would understand this. They are too big for their britches and Johnny Isakson is not afraid to butt heads with them.

Terrorist Trials in Civilian Courts

Also this week, I co-sponsored legislation to prevent the 9/11 conspirators from being tried in civilian court. The legislation would cut off funding for the trials in any civilian court.

The administration’s proposal to send Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to New York City where he was the mastermind of the slaughter of almost 3,000 Americans and hold a trial in that city was just plain wrong. We should not grant American constitutional rights to a foreign terrorist, and I believe we must ensure that these terrorists are tried by military commission.

Economy and Jobs

This week I spoke on the Senate floor about how federal financial regulators are prolonging the recession for homeowners and small businesses through inflexible regulations and proposed fees on banks. Mark-to-market accounting rules have caused tremendous problems for our nation’s banks. I believe mark-to-market should not be an arbitrary write-down to zero but a recognition of the transition of values in a down market or in an up market. This issue hits at the heart of residential real estate construction lending thereby further crippling our economy from returning to prosperity.

In addition, I believe regulators could help struggling homeowners by basing real estate appraisals on the “cost to replace” rather than on “comparable sales,” as well as by enforcing the 10-day rule on banks to make decisions on “short sales” by homeowners who are underwater.

I also think the administration should rethink plans to impose fees on the country's biggest financial institutions in order to recover losses related to the Troubled Asset Relief Program. The vast majority of banks that received TARP funds are paying them back and that these fees will only further delay the ability of banks to extend badly needed credit to small businesses.

I believe the market deterioration was impacted by short sellers rushing to the market, shorting financial stocks and accelerating the decline of those values. The Securities and Exchange Commission needs to reinstate the Uptick Rule on financial stocks in order to stabilize the markets and protect the American consumer from traders forcing down the price of a stock.

On Thursday, I joined with seven of my Senate Republican colleagues in signing a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., asking him to take steps to improve immigration laws in order to help reduce U.S. unemployment.

I believe the millions of workers who are in the United States illegally are only exacerbating the unfair competition American workers currently face as they struggle to find jobs. By taking certain steps to improve our immigration laws, I believe that Congress can help the American worker at little to no cost to the American taxpayer. This includes permanently reauthorizing the E-Verify program, allowing employers to use E-Verify to verify the work authorization of current employees and increasing penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal aliens.
