O'Malley Rally Proclaims State House "Owned" by Special Labor Interests

The Baltimore Sun reported labor union leaders believe with Martin O'Malley as Governor that their unions OWN the State House property:

"Joslyn "Josh" Williams, president of the Metropolitan Washington Council of AFL-CIO..."Are we going to let our piece of property be taken over?" he asked. "No!" enthusiastic O'Malley supporters replied."

Think that they were speaking rhetorically?  Think again.  Last May we reported how the President of AFSCME parked in a spot reserved solely for the Governor of Maryland at the bottom of the steps of the State House.  If a regular Marylander parked here, they would be ticketed and towed almost immediately.

Moreover, you may remember that at the request of unions, O'Malley pushed for The Fair Share Act.  The Fair Share Act allowed unions to require union dues from non-members.  O'Malley's liberal allies in the State Senate including Senators Astle, DeGrange, Dyson, Garagiola, Kasemeyer, Klausmeier, Miller and Robey all voted for The Fair Share Act because evidently they, too, believe the unions own the State House property.

Who do you believe owns the State House: the People of Maryland or Martin O'Malley, John Astle, Ed DeGrange, Roy Dyson, Rob Garagiola, Ed Kasemeyer, Kathy Klausmeier, Mike Miller and Jim Robey's special interests?
