All Federal Worker Unions should call for protests when off the clock.

Federal workers cannot go on strike, but they can march, protest, picket off the clock. I know, I have done it. I actually wanted to break the law and go on strike. Fuck you, fire me.

It's time for the American people to grow a backbone. Sometimes you have to risk everything in order to have a better life. Most Americans have forgotten this fact of life.

So federal employees can start living up the GOP's myth that we DON'T live paycheck to paycheck!

Nobody gave a shit.

I did. I am a lifelong union member. My fellow members
bitched about union dues, the cheap bastards.

I stood against Ronald Reagan and the G.O.P.

Oh yeah, the bitchin union members were Republicans,
always on the take.

All I have left is my vote.

I am so proud we have Speaker Pelosi.
