As I mentioned before, its really not worth an arguement with people whose "ideology" begins and ends with what talk radio tells them to think. While I will be the last to defend the excess' unions had in the 60s and 70s, with featherbedding and other abuses, it was the power of the unions in the days after WWII that dramatically helped the US gain a large middle class, and the AFL-CIO under George Meaney was strongly anti Communist.

Many so called "conservatives" really do not have a clue that the GOPs willingness to provide business' cheap labor under any cost is in the process of costing it millions of voters, had the GOP been for sane, restrictive immigration policies and fair trade, it would not be having the problems it is right now.

Well, I guess you have a firm handle on invective language if nothing else. Your ideas aren't much but your delivery deserves a playground A+.
