What union is Whistle-ass speaking to in Ohio? |
|
I am watching on MSRNC and they are cheering this anti-labor fuckwad like he's the second coming.
Have the union members become dimwitted or are these CEOs that they made take off their coats, ties, and roll up their sleeves?

2. Operating engineers = operators of large construction equipment. |
|
Earth movers, cranes, even construction elevators. A friend's father belonged, got disgusted with the union for their support of repukes.

My husband belongs to the Ohio Operating Engineers and they DO NOT support this idiot.They are a UNION and bu$h is anti-union all the way.My husband gets news letters from them and I read them too. The small crowd Bu$h just spoke to wasn't all that enthusiastic,IMHO. A polite but cool reception. I loved it. It's very painful to watch that poor ignoramous...he almost said his famous bu$hism "put food on the family" but caught himself. It's a disgrace this illiterate is the leader of our country. He has sullied the United States's reputation far more than they say Bill Clinton did. He's the biggest embarrassment this nation has ever had to endure. I miss Bill Clinton.....and Al Gore.:cry:

...how does a state like Ohio (same could be said about this toliet FloriDUH that I am an eCONomic hostage in) have UNIONS being as how they are a "Right To Work (for nothing!) State" ????????????? Whoever came up with that "right to work" shit, I hope they got a special deep pit in hell.

That union gives big money to the Bush reelection campaign. They are also not in danger of being outsourced. The work they do is geographically here. They make big bucks and will continue to. Haliburton after all does much of this.
