> Three More Major Unions Oppose U.S. War and Occupation in Iraq

The unions create their own demise. What party is it that created the inflation in 1975-1980 by raising taxes, and spent more money on Welfare items over and above what the Constitution requires the Gov to provide the citizens? What Party was it that raised taxes by highest %increase ever, in 1993? What does this do to the workers’ wages and take home pay? Your so called leadership is only looking out for their welfare by goating you to believe they can get even more out of the employers, and trying to keep your dues coming in to support their big wallets. What kind of salary does your leadership get from your dues compared to yours? check that out

War does stink. Why do we go to war anyway? Maybe read the history books and see why the US was drawn into the 1st and 2nd World Wars. People like Sadaam Hussein create this atmosphere. It is not the President or Congress saying we want to cut US population by killing off its young men and women, or find another excuse to raise taxes to get more revenue for big government projects. We would not need to go to war if we continued with the Reagan Foreign policies of the 80s. We gave up 8 yrs of the US pride in the World by two mistakes in the elections of 1992 and 1994. The US voters should be embarassed after those years of corruptness of government power in both branches.
