Isn't their loitering laws or anything. Tell them to GTFO if they aren't going to do anything.

Here's some quotes from another article about this.

"Countered South Florida AFL-CIO president Fred Frost: "It was as civil as it gets.'"

"Debra Booth, president of the Central Florida AFL-CIO, described the protest as "peaceful'"

If there are any union members in florida here, you may want to contact these people to let them know what you think.

Debra Booth - Central Florida AFL-CIO (407) 649-8557

Here's an e-mail for Fred Frost's branch
info@sfaflcio.org

And here's an email for journalist Mark Schlueb at the Orlando Sentinel newspaper.
mschlueb@orlandosentinel.com.

Well, well. This explains the gunshots into a Bush campaign office earlier today.

Nice people, those leftists....

Democrats are at their best when they can frighten people. Their candidates use the tactic and so do their voters. Scare tactics or intimidation it's all the same to them.

>>The demonstrators did not disrupt business, said Rob Ray, Hillsborough County Democratic Party vice chairman. <<

And how, pray tell, would he know that?

Protesters stayed in the public area of the headquarters

Is this a civic owned building? If not, they were tresspassing.

``That's what they always try to say about working people - that when you demonstrate together for a cause, you're being a mob or a thug,'' Ray said

Ray the pinhead doesn't seem to grasp the concept of unlawful restraint. Preventing campaign workers from leaving is the act of a thug.

A similar mob attacked the Bush-Cheney HQ in Orlando, too:

Linda Chavez has a book out now titled "Betrayal" which catalogues the unions corrupt financing and support of the Democrats. It also details the violent tactics they use. I recommend it highly.

Give these union thugs some brown shirts and swastika armbands and send them back to 1934 Nazi Germany.

Here's a link to contact the national office of the AFL-CIO

http://www.aflcio.org/siteguides/contactus.cfm

John Sweeney, the President of the AFL-CIO needs to make a public statement explaining how it came to be that this was coordinated at multiple bush/cheney offices. He also needs to provide an apology to the campaign workers and President Bush. I hope he is criminally prosecuted, but I'm not holding my breath.

Union = Organized Crime, AKA Thugs.

So why does this activity surprise anyone?

``They might have been boisterous or somewhat intimidating, but they didn't threaten anybody,'' McElroy said.

Unless you have a bad heart. I guess when someone drops dead because they scare the hell out of them that would just be TOO BAD?

You know, I don't think they have a right to come into a building and chant/yell and intimidate people who are volunteering for a candidate they believe should be President, like they just did.

If someone did that where I was sitting minding my own business, I would be really upset. If I was working with elderly people, I can assure you, they would be shook up. This is WRONG!

Man this ticks me off. I'm afraid if someone did that to me, I'm gonna punch someone in the face. Call it a nervous reaction. A little pepper spray for Bears is probably gonna come out of my purse too.

Do I detect a nation wide assault going on here? Why aren't these facilities being guarded?

I'm going to start a small grass roots effort to get folks to bring their still and video cameras to the polls on Nov 2 (since I can't call for arms). I am working on a name and slogan. Please FReepmail me with ideas, pledges of help, and critiques. Although I would appreciate the humor some will provide, please keep it to serious inquiries.
