David J. Holway, the tin-horn, fly-weight ,dictator of SEIU Local 5000 (aka NAGE), likes to think he is a real mover and shaker on the national stage. Caught up in the throes of a "delusion of grandeur", Holway went out of his way, and off the reservation, to insult Deval Patrick..... the next Governor of the Commonwealth! at the outset of the campaign...(while cozying up with Level- four loser, AG "Thom Who?" Reilly)
Patrick, of course, was not impressed with Holway's threats.... he scoffed.... but I'm willing to bet he remembers this episode when Holway (our "representative" at the bargaining table) sits down to negotiate the next contract.... JESUS! spare us.
I can just picture it when they sit down to negotiate our contract: ... "Oh hi, Dave Holway, hmmmm... yeah I remember you now.... you're the guy who was busting my ass over the ambassador to the Netherlands... (that reminds me... screw you AND your members.... ")
Folks, Holway has likely set us up for yet another crappy contract with his self-aggrandizing attempts to sound like a celebrity. Why can't this jerk, act like what he is: a local union president whose 1st concern should be for the Comm of Mass State Employees that fund his bloated salary?
The squash nosed drunk, is killing us at the bargaining table.... he has alienated both the the Legislature AND the new Governor .... this self-serving dolt must go!
MEMBERS of UNITS 1,3& 6....It is pretty clear:
NAGE is no longer representing YOUR interests...
DO YOU think it appropriate for idiot-boy Holway to to be insulting the future Governor (over who Bush is going to appoint as ambassador to the Netherlands???).... COME ON FOLKS, is that the kind of issue any of us care enough about to get into a pissing contest with the future Governor????.... talk about not knowing how to pick your battles!..... Holway is an utter FOOL!
While Holway was insulting Deval, he was selling us down the river to Willard Romney with below-the-rate-of-inflation contracts .... the two faced hypocrite!!!!
We have got to bring this dope and his toadies to heel!
Here's the Globe article ( a tip of the hat to "anonymous" for digging it up...thanks brother.... I checked it out, it's for real)
UNION IS PRESSING PATRICK TO RENOUNCE BUSH NOMINEE
Boston Globe, The (MA)
November 17, 2005
Author: Frank Phillips Globe Staff
A major Massachusetts-based union is calling on Democratic gubernatorial candidate Deval L. Patrick to withdraw his support for President Bush's nominee as US ambassador to the Netherlands, Roland Arnall, a controversial Republican fund-raiser and principal owner of a mortgage company that is under investigation in 30 states.
The National Association of Government Employees has also called on Patrick to resign as a director on the board of Arnall's firm, Ameriquest Capital Corp. The union said his backing of the nominee contradicts Patrick's campaign promise to offer a "fresh look" for state government.
"We view your backing of Mr. Arnall as just more `business as usual' and acceptance that important positions such as an ambassadorship should go to the highest bidder," David J. Holway, NAGE national president, said in a letter to Patrick this week. (Holway, you dope---please SHUT the hell UP!)
He noted Arnall's strong political financial support of Bush. Arnall and his wife, Dawn, were described by The Washington Post in January as "the single biggest source of financial support for Bush since 2002. Over the period, they gave and raised at least $12.25 million."
Patrick rejected the union's demands yesterday, saying he has committed himself to helping Arnall's company settle the investigations into Ameriquest's business practices, which critics say involved predatory lending aimed at low-income people, minorities, and the elderly. The company is in settlement talks with the investigating states.
"My commitment is to provide independent oversight that will help the company in its continuing effort to be the very best in the industry," Patrick wrote to Holway. "If keeping that commitment costs me the endorsement of NAGE, then I am prepared to live with those political consequences." (Way to go Holway... I thinks it's the NAGE membership who will be living with the consequences..)
Patrick submitted a letter last month to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee praising Arnall, telling the senators, "This is a good man." He said he disagrees with the nominee's political views but doesn't "regard political affiliation as the only possible measure of a person."
