Me thinks the afl-cio is sending messages to it's own "hunger strikers".
They are hungry for new members;)

To: mdittmar
Here's hoping it's a long and successful hunger strike, in that they all attain its logical conclusion.

New members are meaningless unless they have jobs and can pay dues. Immigration reform/Amnesty will inflate the U.S. labor force, dilute wages and benefits, and make union busting easier for employers. AFL/CIO played a big role in killing the Bush amnesty push in 2007. Big labor has always opposed immigration. Even Cesar Chavez, head of United Farm Workers, waged a battle against illegal aliens stealing the jobs of American Latinos.
I think the union leadership pays lip service to amnesty because its a Democrat cause but in reality are plotting a way for Obama to kill it—like he did as a senator in 2007—and blame it on the GOP.

"New members are meaningless unless they have jobs and can pay dues.'Old members are meaningless unless they have jobs and can pay dues.
The "pay dues" part is the key.

Figures. “Working families” = the greedy, Obergruppenfuhrer little Dick Trumka. That boy probably hasn’t worked a day in his fat ass life.

RE :”
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka visited hunger strikers last week outside the White House who are protesting deportations that rip families apart from each other. We asked our mobile supporters to send messages of solidarity and encouragement to the hunger strikers” Good time for a hunger strike, food prices are skyrocketing
I assume after getting amnesty they will demand more $$ for food stamps.

I’ve said it before, hunger strikes are the lamest passive aggressive BS ever.
They should man up and light themselves on fire.

Somehow Comrade Trumka has yet to hand over his job to Miguel Rodriguez from Guadalajara.But he's absolutely fine with Americans,particularly Americans "of color",being unemployed when these invaders have work...probably after having given a stolen social security number.
Also,ten bucks says that if Comrade Trumka ever saw any of these brown skinned people in his millionaire neighborhood who weren't pushing a lawnmower he'd be on the phone with the state police in a heartbeat.

IDIOCY:
American workers, especially union workers, supporting amnesty for illegals who will then take many of the scsrce jobs available.
Amnested illegals will have the greatest impact on blacks and the poor who will have to compete with the low skilled, amnested illegals for jobs.
