Notice how the scum bags at Morning Joe Scum are talking down Trumka's
'Make Wall Street pay' rallies. Have they ever talked down the teabaggers?

Fuck all of them. Go Unions!

<snip>
Trumka, head of the nation’s largest union organization, is hoping to tap into that kind of anger at Wall Street with two weeks of protests aimed at Goldman Sachs Group Inc., the most profitable securities firm in U.S. history, and the country’s five other largest banks. The AFL-CIO says it plans 200 events covering all 50 states, starting March 15.

“Wall Street has become a symbol of greed run amok, and what labor is doing here is seeking to demonstrate that it is speaking for working families generally, union member or non- union member,” said Harley Shaiken, a labor professor at the University of California at Berkeley.


At the “Make Wall Street Pay” rallies, which the AFL-CIO announced today, union members will push for a transaction tax on securities trading to help pay for the $900 billion they want the government to spend on creating new jobs. That’s 60 times the $15 billion approved by the Senate last month. The House of Representatives last week passed an $18 billion measure.

2. But the teabaggers are just citizens fed up of big government
Even their violence and racism is covered up by these morons.

3. Well, to be fair (because we must right?), these protestors are not fed up with big government
they are fed up with the owners

4. That's why they're upset that unions are going to protest
only Dick Armey and his paid for protesters have rights.

Go Unions! I hope the Mine workers join them.

5. side note
They said Joe and Mika are "on assignment." They're actually in town here, visiting the University of Alabama, to sign copies of their respective, worthless, books.

10. Not me!
I haven't even peeked at the Scumball for many, many months. I hear all I need to know from his viewers that frequent this board.
