THE WAY IT WAS AND STILL IS

Thoughts of the past during a different scene early Thursday morning when at least 500 Longshoremen and sympathizers stormed the Port of Longview and broke windows in the guard shack, according to Longview Police Chief Jim Duscha. As men wielding baseball bats and crowbars held six guards captive, others cut brake lines on boxcars and dumped grain, the chief said.
A freight train carrying 107 cars of corn from Splitrock, Minn., destined for the Longview port was vandalized, spilling grain from 72 of the freight cars onto the tracks, said Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway spokesman Gus Melonas. Oh yes,  the good  old  days. How to get and keep your job.

There were no arrests.Zero needs to get up in front of America and confirm what we ALL know: the police acted stupidly.
Kidnapping the police and no charges???? The cops must be union to
This is Obama’s brown shirt army.
And they call themselves progressives… using NAZI 1938 tactics?

These exploited thugs of the Union are striking. Let's see how exploited they are:
Basic Longshore $31.68 - $32.68
Skill I $34.08-$35.08
Skill II $36.35 - $37.35
Skill III $37.48 $1.00 $38.48
Basic Clerk $31.68 -$32.68
Clerk Supervisor $34.08 - $35.08
Kitchen/Tower/Computer Clerk $36.35 -$37.35
Chief Supervisor & Supercargo $37.48 - $38.48

Hoffa’s call to “war” has been answered. Expect things to go from bad to worse.








What we have witnessed is

Obama's infrastructure projects like highways, bridges, railroads, ports and airports reminds me of the old days in Germany. I wish he would ask for more like America's version of Germania. A new modern city of stark block shapped buildings offset by circular plazas with statues of Obama riding a horse or sitting in a GM Volt, or holding a solar panel. National Socialism didn't die it's alive and well in Washington and in universities across the land.

JOBS JOBS JOBS JOBS X 84 TIMES, UNION UNION UNION
Zero said in 2009 small business was the backbone of America but Obama Administration Gave $17.2 Billion in Stimulus Funds to Green Projects – Only It would have been cheaper just to give every unemployed person a $100,000 check.

I know one segment of the population who would have spent it in a week, stimulating the economy.Remember the Katrina Fema cards?
