Pretty mild if you compare it to the crap Obama says will happen if you don't vote Democratic. What's the point?
But it's okay when liberal Democratics have their puppets, the labor Unions, tell the Union members to vote Democrat or they will all go unemployed and their children will die.
Fail-low, you are a failure.
In fairness, it was a single franchise owner, not the entire corporation. He is now being investigated and acknowledged it was improper and apologized.
Elections make people crazy.

Fail-low, you are a failure.
Labor unions are acknowledged political groups that don't pay salaries or benefits to their members. Instead, they seek to preserve them through activism.
This is a non-sequitur. It's improper for the guy who cuts the check to tell his employees to vote a certain way or they won't get their paychecks.
You are astute enough to see the difference.

Hello?
He didn't TELL them to vote a certain way, in fact he reminded them they alone have the right to vote for whoever they want, what he did was tell them why he believes they should consider voting for X.
Big difference.
"As the election season is here we wanted you to know which candidates will help our business grow in the future," reads the letter. "As you know, the better our business does it enables us to invest in our people and our restaurants. If the right people are elected we will be able to continue with raises and benefits at or above our present levels. If others are elected, we will not. As always, who you vote for is completely your personal decision and many factors go into your decision."
The note ends with a list of candidates McDonald's believes "will help our business move forward." It names Republicans John Kasich for governor, Rob Portman for Senate, and Jim Renacci for Congress. With the letter was a biography of Renacci.
Its still wrong you dumb prick.
No no. You are wrong, you dumb rancid clit. SOP.
My goodness. This is getting out of control.

No, he didn't "tell" them to vote a different way. He just told them that if Kasich, Portman, and Renacci didn't win he would "not be able to continue with raises or benefits at or above our present levels".
Not a big difference.
Wrong. First off, just to help steer you back to reality, the employer did NOT make any such threat to any employees. You should be astute enough not to make ridiculous assertions when you have absolutely no real world basis for those claims.
Secondly, a Union is no different in the right to speak politically than is any other association of people, including a corporation or other business entity.
Schulman turned over the documents to local prosecutors, asking them to "investigate this matter for a criminal violation." Ohio election law specifically states that no corporation "shall print or authorize to be print...or post or exhibit in the establishment or anywhere in or about the establishment...handbills containing any threat, notice, or information that if any particular candidate is elected or defeated, work in the establishment will cease in whiole or in part, or other threats expressed or implied, intended to influence the political opinions or votes of...its employees."
On Friday, franchise owner Paul Siegfried apologized in a written statement, saying the communication was "an error of judgment on my part." "Please know it was never my intention to offend anyone," he added. "For those that I have offended, I sincerely apologize."
In a statement to The Huffington Post, Shirley Rogers Reece, general manager of McDonald's Ohio region, said, "We wholeheartedly respect diverse views and opinions, and our employees' right to vote. Our position is that every employee should make his or her own choice. McDonald's had no knowledge of this material being distributed. As independent business owners, our franchisees are responsible for matters regarding their own employees. The content of this material is not reflective of McDonald's position. We remain bipartisan on these matters. That said, while clearly this was poor judgment, we don't believe it was intended to offend anyone."
Damn, but that First Amendment thing seems to irritate you libs.

Shut the fuck up you dumbass fucking liar, you can't even admit McDonalds is wrong, its fucking voter intimidation by McDonalds.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A handful of McDonald's employees in northeastern Ohio received handbills in their most recent paychecks suggesting they vote for three Republican candidates.
Yes it is a big difference.
Good to see you admit you are wrong in your previous post.
What this guy did was pretty stupid, people can see that for themselves.
What is more stupid is to make a big deal out of it. This guy employs maybe 15-20 part time employees, several are probably not old enough to vote.
The bigger story is why does thousands and thousands of people go to Huff n Puff.
Tempest in a teapot.

Puhleez. I get propaganda weekly from the NJEA (much of which is filled with untruths) telling me who to vote for and how the sky is falling under Gov. Christie. That's America.
