Dick Trumpka.AFL-CIO. go man go. Any Democrat voting againt the "Public Option" deserves defeat.

AFL-CIO's Richard Trumka praises Democrats in Washington those who have stood by working people.

He goes on to warn those who have wavered on labor and health care reform about the consequences of stabbing working people in the back and vows labor will not forget their actions.

1. You really want to check for typos.
And then coherence.

3. Wow! Way to take the wind out of their sails. Good job of supporting your fellow Dem.
Yeah, I saw a few spelling errors in there. And the post won't win any prizes for perfect grammar, but I really had no trouble understanding what they were talking about.

You know, I've always been a great speller. But my fingers aren't always, and I've always been a pretty crappy typist, which gets even worse when I'm emotional about something. Like my thoughts are running way ahead of how fast I can get my fingers to go. So I make mistakes from time to time, and sometimes I edit them out when I read my post, and I don't feel the need to explain my need to edit.

I know one thing. I can't do anything nearly as well as when I was younger. I hate to say it, but it's true.

But I really don't get your point in humiliating someone about their spelling or coherence. They are doing their best to communicate, and you need to do your best to listen to what they are trying to say. And cut them some slack if they are not as young/educated/perfectionist as you are.

All I mean to say is, just try to appreciate that they are on your side, so they can't be that dumb.

5. I couldn't agree more. These DINO's need to be removed if we
are to survive as a progressive oppositional party to the right wing fascists.
