Unions Sue Nikki Haley in Her First Week in Office

Nikki Haley, Governor of South Carolina and Redstate Gathering attendee, has barely stepped foot into office and the AFL-CIO has deemed fit to use their dues to sue her for expressing her intent to prevent job-killing unions from invading South Carolina which incidentally is a right to work state.

The Governor's response is refreshingly honest and bold as she essentially tells them to shove their lawsuit where the sun don't shine.
Rest at link. Happy to see her standing up to the corrupt and job killing unions. They must be scared if they are already suing her.

#2 âBut you donât have no mandate from nobody that weâre not going to let no labor union exist at Boeing?â Ford asked.

âNo, sir. Of course not. We donât have the authority to do that,â Templeton said.

Depending on your definition of "that", of course.

Man, I'd love to have an mp3 of that. Reminds me of the Chicago pol's remark when approached for a job: "Who sent you?" "Nobody." "We don't want nobody who wasn't sent by nobody."

#3
But you dont(1) have no (2) mandate from nobody(3) that were not(4) going to let no(5) labor union exist at Boeing? State Representative Ford asked.

Quintuple negative analysis reduction
Reducing Ford's equation, we find this:

negatives 1 and 2 cancel each other
negatives 4 and 5 cancel each other

Therefore, we rewrite Ford's equation and here is what we get:

"But you do have a mandate from nobody that w're going to let a labor union exist at Boeing?"

It still does not make any clear sense as to what he is saying. We will have to apply the INTENT of the language to get is meaning. Hanging chads and all that.
