...thanks right wingers and pukes! You are about to find out what real patriotism, compassion for fellow citizens really looks like.

1. How so? The way I see it the UAW is doomed and so is the labor movement.

Am I misreading it?

[fascisthunter]

2. we will see

[aquart]

4. Yes.

6. You sure are. Just wait till Obama tells McConnell's wife to pack her stuff and hit the road. nt

[burythehatchet]

10. I don't know what that means. Mitch McConnell? Is his wife a lobbyist for

foreign mfgr?

My point is that yes we have to find a way to cushion the landing and have safety nets for the coming wave of unemployed, but form a dispassionate point of view I see the industry unable to function under its current model. The UAW is part of that model. It just seems logical to assume that if the model is going to be blown up then the UAW will no longer exist in its current political place.

11. McConnell's wife is Elaine Chao Labor Sec. and is anti union.nt

3. I Agree - If We Play It Right

Time to put those Work Union bumper stickers back on our cars. Remember when products used to have stickers that said union made?

[fascisthunter]

5. yup... I do remember

many have union stickers on their cars here where I live. Even those who don't belong to unions.

7. They will receive more support from workers

Just in time for the ultimate battle for their survival.

[skooooo]

9. There is no ultimate battle..

...but there is the constant and ongoing struggle.

[jedr]

8. Yes, and the Wal*Mart stampede helped too;

I expect to see union stickers soon replacing the yellow ribbons on many cars.

13. Hopefully Granholm will get Labor secretary

That would be a kick in the face to these anti-union assholes

[4 t 4]

15. A Giant kick to all Unions left! n/t Unions are our Friends
