The ONLY obstruction to a complete Republican takeover are the Unions
Edited on Fri Feb-18-11 04:19 AM by DainBramaged
Rachel is right, and those of you who think Unions are useless, Wisconsin is the watershed battle. This is the plan, this is what they wanted. Without Unions, we have no power or money to fight the monied interests of the Right or get out the vote.



Think about that as you sip your tea or coffee this morning.

1. Too bad Democrats are complicit in the union starving/busting...
Maybe now they'll change their minds about how they treat teachers and government union workers (can you say un-freeze federal worker pay?)

7. The Democrats who drive non-UAW built cars are complicit for sure
Hope some of them see the light.

8. They think they are American cars
Toyota's best selling car, the Corolla, made in Canada and Japan. Honda brings parts in by the container load to assemble their cars in Ohio, the ONE as they say in their commercials.


What horseshit. Sure, GM, Ford and Chrysler build in Canada and Mexico, but the bulk of their cars and parts are made here. Sheet Metal is stamped here, engines forged and assembled here.


You can argue content (from containers) or you can argue who owns what, in the end, japanese does not mean Union.
