Unions are thuggish!?
It is amazing. Obama gets union endorsements and all of a sudden people start calling union members thugs. Obama gets a Kerry endorsement and all of a sudden people start claiming that John Kerry is just opportunistic. Dennis K. asks for people to choose Obama as their second choice in Iowa and all of a sudden people start saying that Dennis has jumped the shark. I am so amazed at the BS flowing in GDP recently.

Don't even get me started on Clinton supporters trying to shut down Democratic Party approved voting locations...all of a sudden after Obama gets the endorsements of the segment of people who pushed for the voting locations...

4. Unfortunately, too much politics is based on rumor. If that weren't
the case, KKKarl Rove wouldn't have been nearly as successful as he has been. A sad commentary of the Amercian body politic!
Can Unions be thugish? Sure, they're made up of human beings. But history proves that union members/organizers are more often the victims of thuggery.
