I haven't heard of him, but will check him out.
Personally, I wasn't all that offended by Hoffa. He's standing in front of a bunch of TEAMSTERS, for God's sake, not a bunch of 3rd graders.
I think we get wrapped around the axle sometimes on rhetoric and while I personally think that Hoffa, like his father, is a thug and a goon, he's certainly not going to mince words when it comes to defending his bullshit unions -- which are offensive in and of themselves.
But for what he said? Doesn't bother me.
I was born and raised in the Detroit area, and what came out of Hoffa's mouth was pretty tame in comparison to some crap I've heard.
But I digress. Plante sounds like he might be the real deal. I look forward to checking him out.
