DeMint blocked the nomination, saying that Southers would unionize

That sounds like a reasonable demand. Federal employees already make
130% of what the rest of the country makes for similar work, along
with a great benefits package.. Do they really need a union?
They could fix this with one line in some bill renaming a post office
somewhere.

Whether any group of employees needs a union is a decision that should
be left to the employees.

There was a fuss here by the mindless righties that Obama had not yet
named a TSA director. The usual morons participated. Well, the fault
lies with the senator from South Carolina.
It is still stuck in committee. If they wanted to they could bring it
to a vote tomorrow.

I am not sure "union" and Federal government really go together. There
used to be a law.



Think back.... mid-1800... there was this big war... between the North
and the South... The Unio... vs. the Rebs... come on, you're probably old
enough to remember.



Lincoln was far too generous to the defeated south. I've always thought he
should have been much, much harsher to those known to have been involved
in planning and executing the insurrection/secession and those who
profited in any way from slavery *and* their families. Any and all
property any of them owned should have been taken away and divided up
amongst the families of the former slaves. All the
insurrectionsts/secessionists should have been executed, excluding the
non-officers in the southern military forces.


And that is why you have no life. You are a total idiot.
