Grouchy old Don and his DUmbass cohorts has been peeking (no shoutout)

[Tucker]

I do believe that this post I made earlier got him to thinking.

My post:

It was about two years ago the Anne sold her Honda and bought the Toyota.

She then made a plea for all unions for support in their teachers strife, including the UAW members. I blasted her hypocrisy and got a raving attaboy from DainBramaged.

From this afternoon:

Where does this mindset originate? "I won't support your union, but please support my union."

That is pure Reaganism. Reagan loved unions when he was president of the Screen Actors Guild. But after he became President of the US one the first things he did was fire the members of the Air Traffic Controllers union.

Ever think about that?

Don

And for the mumbo jumbo reply.

1. People are afraid of and, perhaps, embarrassed to ask for concrete accountability, or maybe they
   
don't feel empowered to do so, which means that they need to address the collective means by which empowerment is EFFECTIVELY and functionally implemented.

And, yes, I know I'm suggesting stuff that is risky, but maybe in the process that FACT should be on the table too.

Just guessing.

8. It's really bad when it comes from public employees
   
We don't have a choice but to pay them and use their services. Yet, they choose not to buy private sector union services and goods. It really makes it hard for me to support them when their status symbols are more important than our jobs.

12. I think pointing fingers is divisive
   
I am sure there are some private sector union employees who don't use public sector union employees when they can without blinking an eye too. It goes both ways I am sure.

Just saying this to be fair. There is enough blame to go around on this.

This would be a great opportunity for Anne Pritchett to explain why she expects private unions to support the teachers union and yet she turns her back on their union and buys a non union vehicle.

How about it Anne! You owe the DUmmies a reasonable explanation.

Yeah, I saw that some minutes ago, and that's the first thing I thought of, that Don had been reading Tucker.

I noticed the wretched old bitch, the Die alte Sau, hasn't deigned to explain herself to my good friend Don.

Rich people should form a union....and go strike. Refuse to make any more money and therefore pay no taxes until all the illegals are deported and the DUmmies take their jobs.
