From the Department of the Pot Calling the Kettle Black comes this Chicago Tribune story about troubles in paradise over at the SEIU…

“Sal Rosselli doesn’t think his union, the Service Employees International Union, is all that democratic, and he is making a fuss about it. But he is not your average union-card carrier. As leader of a 150,000-member local in California, and until recently head of the more than 600,000-member SEIU California State Council, Rosselli has wielded quite a bit of union clout. He also belonged to SEIU’s executive committee until last weekend, when he resigned in a blistering letter to union President Andy Stern, accusing him of expanding his powers at members’ expense.”

Over recent years, SEIU has become perhaps the most aggressive and obnoxious band of union agitators in the entire nation. That one union boss is accusing a fellow union boss of thuggery is indeed sauce for the goose.

Wouldn’t it be a shame if these two union bosses divided their own union the way SEIU divided the union movement in general by bolting the AFL-CIO a couple years ago? We can only hope.
