I wouldn't know. I'm just asking why an *INTERNATIONAL* union is campaigning for Senator Edwards.

Another DIM Smeargate EXPOSED! PING
Damn right I did...
I'm sure the word is coming down thru channels to these overzealous thugs to cool it, it makes their candidate look bad.
Nice. Nice. Nice.
Nice, because Parlock is vindicated.
Nice, because the Union did the right thing.
Nice, because the DUmmies are AGAIN repudiated.
LOL
"BTW, classy statement by Mr. Williams."
Yes it tis. Much more than Rather or Kerry have offered up regarding dispicable behavior.
I don't see how they can dismiss the guy from his job. Maybe slap his wrist internally, but the guy would have too many avenues of appeal to fight a dismissal. And it would be bad for employee morale.
I won't be satisfied until I see that punk on video getting his nuts stomped in.
But that's just my nature....
It was a public place! It was a public airport. It was not an official rally. He had as much right to stand where he stood as anyone else. He was not interfering with a campaign event. Edwards was there to board a plane, not give a speech.
Being a Democrat does not give one the right to physically attack someone else for holding up a sign. Period.
Mr. Williams did the right thing in his response, and I will Email him again and think him for the action that he has taken.
Nonetheless, I am sure that the Freepers that sent in their Emails and phone calls of distaste for this Union's reprehensible acitons played a major part in Mr. Williams actions. WE MUST (and I know that we will) keep the pressure on the left and continue to hold them accountable.
The left's "No one is responsible for anything" excuses have ruined our schools, our media, our courts, and our government. We (Freepers & Bloggers) are the spearhead that is turning America back into a nation of responsible citizens. God Bless Free Republic.
Thanks for the ping!

General President James A. Williams deserves credit. I wouldn't want to be the bozo who tore up the little girl's sign. His union brothers will teach him the error of his ways.
He had no choice but to issue a statement. I logged onto all my accounts and emailed him as I think every poster on FR last night did. Nothing like coming in to the office inthe morning and finding your inbox overflowing with outrage
Good on you, General President James A. Williams. I appreciate it when someone stands up!
Which Kerry...Flip or Flop?
It's semantics, really. I said the labor bosses should dismiss him from the union, for publicly disgracing the org and conduct unbecoming. Most union jobs - if you aren't a member of the union, you don't have a job. So they would be indirectly firing him.
I think I like Mr. Williams, very much.
While I appreciate the comments by Mr. Williams, don't think he did it because of any true feelings of equality for all - he did it because the goon was caught on camera and he smelled a lawsuit or bad publicity....... period.
