"If it snows now, all hell will break loose."

If it snows, I have a feeling the emergency room will be removing the picket signs from the striker's anal cavities.

The judge should order the strike broken and if that is ignored the union leaders should be jailed for contempt.

Yes fire them all. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to drive a bus, or push a couple buttons to make the doors open on the subway.

I'll bet a few thousand Mexicans would be glad to do the jobs for half what the union goons demand.

Yeah, lets give their jobs away to people that entered this country illegally, and pay them $6. an hour to do it.

That'll sure show them!

Wait, wait, let me guess...Senator Clinton gets to ride in to broker a great "peacemaker" deal all while Republicans Bloomberg and Pataki are made out to be the villains...

Haven't we seen this cript somewhere else before?!

Listening to Fox News this morning, and to ErrAmerika, it seems NYC has a budget surplus so the union want's it's cut. Basically, it's about no employee contributions to health care or pensions - the same ticking time bomb that has doomed so many other companies and municipalities.

Personally I think workers should have a right to strike. And the employer should have a right to get new employees. I don't think this thing should even be in court. The judge should have no authority.
