Exactly, when it’s out of sight/out of mind the employee doesn’t think but many will start thinking now.

Look at Detroit, Michigan to see how the unions destroy the middle class.

One word - Schadenfreude. Now they know how I feel about ObamaCare and every other crap program he has or is pushing.

Just heard from a friend that police pepper sprayed Michael Moore!

I didn't hear about Moore, but apparently my EX-congresscritter Marky Mark Schauer was sprayed.

My own favorite quote about this type of union is along the lines of “once upon a time, Union ideals were there to ensure good work, now they’re there to protect bad work (or more appropriately, NO work)”

I’m not a Pittsburgh person but my husband hails more from there and a few years ago we went to the local museum. He recalls there was no recovery of the bomber and little evidence later.

Never seen it spelled “pilsener”; curious.

Iron City is still around and in some places here around Baltimore we can get it.

Liberals are ONLY “freedom of choice” when it comes to death of innocents.

They’re not big on choosing to work/how to work, wearing seatbelts or helmets, or if you can use your farm or waterfont any way you want.

“Kind of like with Obamacare...”

Just keep the f’n John of the Supremes away from all this...leave him to his job of collecting all of BO’s shit until the dung slingers come around to empty his cache. And then let him keep on collecting...

Indeed Olde Frothingslosh is the stale pale ale. I fear I'm showing my age here! :-)

Anyone else recall the leap over the Bridge to Nowhere?(The one over the Allegheny...not the one that Sarah Palin fought in Alaska).

Pittsburgh - "Bridge to Nowhere"

Pittsburgh had a real "Bridge to Nowhere." The main span of the Fort Duquesne Bridge over the Allegheny River was completed in 1963. Land for the approaches had not been acquired, so the bridge stayed like this for five years.

The bridge was finally completed in 1968. It now carries Interstate Highway I-279. There are two decks of traffic.

"Michigan is getting bombarded by out-of-state union activists, including protestors from Wisconsin."

They'll take anything they can mount a sign on.

Remember it very well. I used to do a little partying up on that bridge before they finished it. It was a cool place to just walk around. Today, you would be road kill in 5 seconds. ;~))

I remember when the drunk college kid drove through the barricades and then went off the end of the bridge and landed in the river. Amazingly, he didn't even get hurt. That's when Cordic started his Bridge Jump skits on the radio.

Libs claiming it’s Crowder’s fault he was attacked and are saying he should have been killed. They are also saying the tent should have been burned down with people inside instead of just being torn down.
