“Union Bosses to Obama Aide: “This is a Defining Moment””

I definitely agree with that - it’s a defining moment for us as well. If they get the republicans to cave in wisconsin, they will use this model everywhere else and essentially annul our election victories.

If that happens, future elections will have consequences for us, but not them.

“... attract the biggest and widest” looks like. Whoah that’s a lot of union worker; a LOT.

“A defining moment, and the unions and Obama are both going to lose and be defined by it.”

I’d like to believe that, but I sense that the Republicans are going to somehow get snookered by the ‘rats, and that the results of what’s going on in Wisconsin, Ohio, and a few other places isn’t going to be what we had hoped, once the dust settles down.

Just sayin’....

Pres. Reagan was dealing, as was right and proper, with federal employees and federal government “benefits.”
Obummer is being urged to meddle further in a state government matter, absent any authority to do so other than demands of his union masters and financiers.

the Bushes have ruined this country


This is a donk meme that I have heard separately from many disparate sources over the past 2 years. It is especially prevalent from those with union connections.

Why don’t they wait for May Day (e.g., the old Soviet Union one).

Definitely. The guy I heard say it is from an old-line union background.
