What's there to be gained by pursuing it?

If the unions are doing a "slow-up", that's still costing the economy. There is the old saying "An honest day's work for an honest day's pay."

Now, a slow-up could mess up the Christmas season. Again, "I'm going to do what I can to ensure that this does not prevent children from getting their Christmas presents." If Bush keeps it along those lines, the union will look like a big grinch.

And nobody likes a grinch that tries to steal Christmas from kids.
