Regarding the FDR reference, he had that opinion until he needed the regular labor movement to destroy the Communist union organizers then infiltrating the government ranks.

The union people did the job; the Commies disappeared; Roosevelt paid up with a couple of executive orders, one of which was to allow government employees to write their Congressmen.

Oh, yeah, and he gave government employees a raise ~ I have the pen used to sign his first, last and only pay raise.

Oviously the AFL-CIO and its affiliates have let too many hard core leftists into their own structure these days but another President could make a deal just like FDR did ~ otherwise their public labor unions will wither up and die like they are in Indiana, and shortly will in Wisconsin.

I'm sure the union guys know how to deal with commies if they really want to.

“I’m sure the union guys know how to deal with commies if they really want to.”

String up the Muni Workers Union Bosses. 90% of the problem is solved right there. Then you indict the Democrat who gave them the contracts in the first place. More than likely he is just as dirty and it wouldn’t be too hard to find something.
