He was in ...My father really disappointed me today. He was in the carpenter's union for 30 years. But he's been listening to nothing buy conservative talk radio for years now. So I've been wondering how he was dealing with this ideological quandary. Went to go see him today and when I ask, he tells me there is no quandary. 'The unions are out of control. There's not enough money.' 'Dad, they agreed to all the monetary concessions. They just want to keep their collective bargaining rights.' 'That's not good enough. I know unions [insert Fox news talking points]'<br />He taught me all my youth how good it was to be in a union, and how 'if you weren't it was so much easier for your employer to screw you over. Because they are out for Number One. They don't care about you.'<br /><br />He's turned his back on them, and the talk show hosts have eaten my father's brains.Jerry McBridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11239322925243488433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-6405415776198604052011-02-27T18:29:15.100-06:002011-02-27T18:29:15.100-06:00Mofo, Drifty.

Not to mention a hilarious image.<br /><br />Just like the run-up to Iraq, the word has obviously gone out: the Masters are not pleased. Any nascent resistance to strip-mining the last remaining shreds of middle-class prosperity must be smothered in its crib.<br /><br />And in my benighted Buckle-of-the-Bible-Belt state, where its newly elected Tea Partier legislative majority are planning to do a Walker on the teachers) what was the lead story in my local paper's Sunday edition? "Teachers' Union Is Mixed Blessing"<br /><br />Not word one about the protest in Madison, or the police joining in the protest they were supposed to break up. Or the big rally in our state capitol yesterday in support of them. <br /><br />Damn! If only they'd dressed up in funny hats with teabags dangling from the brim, I'm sure they would have gotten some reportorial love.prof fatenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-36675673233634356372011-02-27T14:16:09.976-06:002011-02-27T14:16:09.976-06:00I can't help but imagine the real David Koch g...I can't help but imagine the real David Koch giving Scott Walker <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HURJNd0J4U" rel="nofollow">this speech</a> in the wake of the prank-phone-call fiasco!Mister Robotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08724938709642010624noreply@blogger.com
