Sooner or later, labor is going to realize that even really right wingers - like me - really DO want workers to have good jobs, and that folks like me respect laborers much, much more than we respect ANY liberal marshmallow slime mold.

My garbageman is much higher in rank than my (currently democrat) representative.

Awesome when Lib constituencies start falling out. Zero has to balance Labor vs. Greenies with Keystone, and also Hollywood vs. Silicone Valley with SOPA. It’s what you get when you refuse to be President for *all* the people. Let the crackup continue....

These other folks have been “the greens” for a long time. ...keeps the riff-raff from getting any ideas about starting new businesses.

Obama chose the WORRIES of his environmentalist cronies over the FAMILIES of union workers.
The union workers are all going, “So this is what the underside of a bus looks like.”

Unions must learn—Obama isn’t your friend. He sold you out for a few liberal votes—What can you expect from a man who never worked a day in his life.
