Whether or not Democrats and their labor union allies succeed in recalling Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker next month, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka is ready to declare at least a moral victory.

OOPS. Looks like they did some polling that shows they gotta move the goalposts WAYYYYY back.

Yup. Upon reading the WaPoPuffPiece, it's obvious they will lose and it's obvious they know it.

And so they are busy spinning silk out of sows ears.

Probably not before coronary heart disease pays a visit to Trumka.

If this commie macho man was half as bad as he thinks he is, he’d have a flippin’ REAL JOB. Trumka is nothing but a lazy, two bit punk.

This was always about making an example and “scaring others” from doing the same.

The problem now is who is the hammper and who is the anvil?

How nice and reasonable he sounds! All in the spirit of compromise, comity, and “can’t we just get along?”
Any wonder why true conservatives can not bridge the chasm between us and these moron liberals with no consciense, and in fact no sense!

I like your misspelling. Trumka is definitely the hamper. He's got a lot of dirty laundry. :)

I hope all the unions in WI, OH, IL, IN . . . lose and keeping losing ground. Then next the teachers unions. They are far too corrupt. Need scorching.

Trumka should take a lesson from the ‘fat lady’. At least she knows when its her time to sing. Bloated mouth acting a little too prematurely ay? Hope Walker wins in a landslide and gobble$ up wa$ted Union fund$ thrown against him. Now that would be $weet.

These union cross-state activities need to be examined under a RICO microscope. Is this the new domestic force that de'bummer promised?

Between Wisconsin voting against union thuggery and the Supreme Court overturning the healthcare bill, things are setting up nicely for an Obama defeat..

It's the little things that count.

Unpatriotic Teamsters Hoarding Mounds of Cash

According to an LM-2 report filed earlier this year, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, which represents truck drivers and some school employees, ended 2010 with $108,608,477 in the bank. That’s a whopping 24.9% increase in net assets over 2009, when the union reported $86,942,076 in assets.
In contrast, the Teamsters reported $88,371,439 in liabilities. So if the union could afford to go without any new revenue and still meet its obligations for well over 12 months.
There is a trend in the union’s growing net assets. The Teamsters ended 2009 with $86,942,076 in the bank, according to that year’s LM-2 report. That’s an even more impressive 33.4% increase in net assets over 2008, when the union reported $65,148,734 in assets.
