GO FIGURE (Barf alert)

To APWU represented employees who consider themselves Republicans, you should watch the Senate Hearings on the legislation to reform the Postal Service. Setting aside the disputes over Congressional culpability in the current USPS deficit through the 2006 PAEA, you should be interested in the McCain substitute amendment that proposes to liquidate the Postal Service and abrogate the collective bargaining agreements covering postal employees. If adopted, postal assets would be sold off to the highest bidders and sections would be closed with an up or down vote of Congress. The no lay off provisions would be nullified and managers would be free to cherry pick employees for termination with no appeal. That is the position of the Republican’s standard bearer in the 2008 elections (McCain) and the candidate that you voted for. It is simply illogical for any postal employee to act in their own self-interest to the extent that he/she supports a political party that thinks so little of their own employment.

All of this talks about contraception, budget deficits and gas prices pales in comparison to your Party proposing to eliminate your job. You took the postal test and passed so you are intelligent enough to understand that your life revolves around the income received from your job. It is illogical that you can form an alliance with the forces that wish to eliminate that job. If you think I am making this up turn to C Span and watch your political hero attack your livelihood. There will be a vote on the McCain Substitute and it will be defeated, but you should take notes and record how your Senator votes. Is he/she on your side or have they figured out a way of convincing you that they share your values as they attempt to destroy you. Are you really that big of a fool?

/snip/ There is an old saying that you can tell a person’s character by the company he/she keeps. If that is so, reflect back on the political party that is supported by the Ku Klux Klan, the Neo-Nazis, the White Citizens’ Council, Neo-Confederate, the Tea Party and others of similar ilk. These are hate groups that are solid supporters of the Republican Party, no matter the selection in the Primaries. These bigots will flock to the polls with hope that they can export their special brand of hate and division. Their vision of America is one that existed 300 years ago when white males dominated the political arena and they join with other apologists who want to "take back their country." Individuals will attempt to mask their intentions with flowering excuses of individual rights, balanced budgets and conservative values, but if you scratch the cover and expose the core of their objectives you will find beliefs that look like, smell like and feel like a white supremacist. You cannot get into bed with fleas and arise proclaiming a bug free zone.

Some deep thoughts from dear leader of the APWU. Can you feel the love? SOLIDARITY FOREVER>>. Union membership in the PO is voluntary and this is why I refused to pay dues. And speaking of the good old days of White supremamcy, here's a dirty little secret. The Mailhandler's union, a spinoff of LIUNA which bargains collectively with the APWU, has it's roots in what was called The Alliance. This was a union of Black RR postal clerks and porters formed around 1900. The reason they organized was not only to protect themselves from the Vanderbilts and other eeevil RR barons of the day, but also the White socialists at the forefront of the labor movement wanted nothing to do with them. It wasn't until decades later when, encouraged by Joseph Stalin, they realized the untapped propoganda potential of exploiting the, as it was called back then "Negro situation". But does such profound ignorance and pontification from a big time mumia lover come as any surprise?

Satan must be shopping for a scarf and parka this morning. John McLame has actually done something that I agree with.

The communist bloc thought they were heading for complete domination of the American political system once their Dear Leader was elected. They didn’t figure on a major backlash and are afraid they’ll lose what gains they’ve made, and then some.
