Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you belong to a union, don't you already have a job?!

Apparently the Washington longshoremen who took hostages and vandalized company property last week did not understand his words.

Of course Hoffa's call for the union 'army' to 'take out' the opposition was a simple call for members to do their civic duty. How can it have been interpreted otherwise?

Its not as if he used a surveyor symbol on a map of the USA or something.

Not always. In some places, they make you join the union to be able to even apply for the job. Any state that isn’t Right To Work shouldn’t even be allowed call themselves American.

‘...out there trying to pass right-to-work’? As in Boeing/South Carolina? Common thugs; used to exchanging money for votes.

Do they really think nobody in the Tea Party works?

I guess, to them, "work" only counts if it comes with a union card!

Right, but Sarah Palin’s PAC Website using a map with surveyor symbols to “target” congressional districts was a call for people to take up arms and go shoot people!

Unfortunately, some media such as Fox News, did not always publish the full content of Hoffa's words and misled their viewers. I believe that was intentional, considering that Fox has a proven track record of slanting the news.

Hahaha! Talk about projection. The MSM's always do that.
