There's an old saying about people who live in glass houses. The Democrat's ties to organized crime (especially with regard to Labor Unions) isn't exactly a secret.

Here's just one example, although we could tick and tie these types of connections all the way back to the glory days of prohibition and the 20's.



Quote:
Arthur Coia, president of the Laborers' International Union (LIUNA), was described by organized crime investigators in the Justice Department as being a mob puppet. Coia was a frequent guest at the White House, traveled with President Clinton on Air Force One several times, and they exchanged gifts. The Justice Department in 1995 had drafted a racketeering lawsuit against him, but after Hillary Clinton spoke to a LIUNA convention, a decision was made to allow the union to hire its own lawyer to root out corruption. Coia stayed in his position and continued to raise huge sums for the Democrats. He was chairman of a 1996 fund-raising event that produced more than $12 million for the party.
The long and short of it is, they are all in somebody's pocket.
