News from the strike!
Although we haven't actually started YET, I heard from someone who knows the General Manager of one of the stores that's striking that the Feds are getting involved. They say it is because of the impact it will have on the economy. I'm still fighting, as are the rest of us, but anyone want to start betting if we'll see a repeat of teh firing of the air traffic controllers.

1. Smirk would love nothing better
than busting up a Union (Fascist characteristic #10 - Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.)

I hope it all works out okay for you.

2. Union members voted for Arnold and Bush
How can people be so easily led by the media?

3. Shopped at a Ralph's here in Santa Monica
about 9:30 tonight, and when we drove in two
SM cop cars were parked right inside the entrance
to the lot, not doing nothing, the cops just standing around
talking, and when we came out 45 minutes later,
they were still there. Pre-strike intimidation?

4. the feds are out numbered
And the whole world is watching the regime digging theirselves in deep do do. Hang in there. I was reading the federal register, and looks like he's finally got his sights on Hud. He's not having much luck with the FAA people. Saw on Gov Exec.com they got some real fighters that unlike him, don't intend to turn tail and cowardly awol of this war . He's probabl
done more to bring in new membership to unions and he takes our jobs, he has the power, but we still are UNITED. And we will see his ass kicked out vote count or no vote count. He's toast
