He isn’t a union worker. He isn’t your average angry mobster. He’s a died in the wool, liberal, union goon. Not only that, he’s a community organizer. Now we know what community organizers do all day long.
Via American Thinker, via St. Louis Tea Party Coalition, Steve Gilbert of Sweetness and Light dug up some information:
Tea Party researchers have discovered some interesting news on one of the people arrested for beating Ken Gladney.
Elston K. McCowan is a former organizer – now the Public Service Director of SEIU Local 2000 – and board member of the Walbridge Community Education Center, and is a Baptist minister, has been a community organizer for more than 23 years, and now, he is running for Mayor of the City of St. Louis under the Green Party.
McCowan accused the Mayor of setting fire to his van . . . because that’s what big city mayors do in their spare time, I guess. He also called [St Louis Mayor Francis] Slay a racist. And, on election night, McCowan thanked the family who voted for him. It was quite touching, actually.
McCowan is not a rank-and-file, card-carrying union guy. He is a director with SEIU. He IS the union. He ISSUES the cards. Andy Stern himself might as well have kicked Gladney.
The only thing surprising about this news is that McKowan isn’t from Chicago!
And speaking of the SEIU – they continue to urge members to attend town hall meetings to drown out the voices of ObummerCare protesters. So just who is un-American? (via memeorandum)
