Bunch of bullies with chips on their shoulders.
Well, it is true, if Tea Party philosophy prevails, a lot of union stewards will lose their sinecures.
At the top levels, unions are infested with parasites who have seldom (if ever) walked on the floor of a shop, picked up a wrench, operated a lathe or have even opened a lunchbox in a company cafeteria.
But they’ll show up at the union meetings in working clothes with ballcaps, making like they’re just good old boys. This guy Hoffa is a case in point. Isn’t the whole idea of a union supposed to be working men and women banding together? How does that figure when you have a scion of a obviously corrupt official inheriting his position in the union?
It’s frigging bizarre that they never seem to get called on that.
