This will go along way in creating jobs







I don't know where people get the idea that stupid regulations limit business. Why would any business worry about expanding or trying to make a buck. Crazy talk I say. Crazy. They are just being "greedy"
I posted on this a few weeks ago when it apeared in the WSJ. This is a purely American company creating purely American JOBS. 580 skilled American JOBS. The Carterbama administration sends in the SWAT team like they are drug dealers, instead of sending the SWAT team after drug dealers.

One of the accounts I read pointed out that Gibson is a NON-Union shop, and was importing the same wood as competitive shops that are Unionized...and untouched by the Lacy enforcement. Who would have thunk!

Even tree huggers say Gibson is environmentally responsible: "Scott Paul, a Greenpeace official in New York responsible for forestry issues, said Gibson for years has done "great work" to promote better forestry practices."

Looks like the easiest way around the suspicious enforcement by the Carterbama would be to have these guitars made with the SAME wood in China, then imported to the US. That would be perfectly legal. Score: 580 Fewer American JOBS, but who's counting anyway?

You nailed it. Gibson is in a right to work state and as such is not unionized. Odummyfucker is trying to pay off his union goons by going after this company. It is a shame.

I notice that not one of Odummy's sycophantic supporters on this board come to his defense on this, so I can only assume that they agree with us on Odummy's reprehensible job killing behavior.

Even if Gibson wins, look at the money they have had to spend to defend themselves.

" Jameson French, a board member of the Hardwood Federation and CEO of Kingson, N.H.-based hardwood lumber processor, exporter and distributor Northland Forest Products, said he didn't have much sympathy for Gibson. The company should have been able to monitor its wood sourcing, especially since the second raid involved the same import agency as the first case."

Now you know the rest of the story. But I doubt it.

Aside from your source having a conspicuous conflict of interest, it is real nice to see that the Obama administration has their priorities in order. Curious minds must wonder that while Obama sent his goon squads into a Non UNION shop of a purely American company, how many illegals snuck across the borders because our resources were solving American ills in Nashville TN instead of on the borders.

I thought the same thing when BU$H sent a hundred thousand troops to Iraq and left our borders wide open.
