Think about it; meditate; daven: it is plain and simple.

Think about it; meditate; daven: it is plain and simple.
 
Support Steve Raby for the Fifth in Alabama.

I will vote for him and I will campaign  for him. I will campaign for him with enthusiasm, for I have seen the Rottweiler in the other party and he is apparently an abused pit bull sick and disturbed.

The Republican Party base works to expel moderates and conservatives. Yeah, you read me correctly, “expel moderates and conservatives.”

Those groups on the right you and they may spuriously call conservative are not. They are a mix of racists, neo conservatives (war mongers and imperialists), social conservatives (majorities over rights), religious zealots (they talk to god and she answers), war mongers (repeated so you remember) all guided by corporatists who make profit from folk whose atavistic human impulses they manipulate.

In the Democratic Party we have folk right and left, and many more graduated between. 

On Online Brainstorming, Or, "Hey, Unions...Wanna Grow?"

August 17, 2010 by Left in Alabama

Sometimes stories happen because of planning; other times serendipity intervenes, which is how we got to the conversation we’ll be having today.

In an exchange of comments on the Blue Hampshire site, I proposed an idea that could be of real value to unions, workers...and surprisingly, employers.

If things worked out correctly, not only would lots of people feel a real desire to have unions represent them, but employers would potentially be coming to unions looking to forge relationships, and, just to make it better, this plan bypasses virtually all of the tools and techniques employers use to shut out union organizers.

Since I just thought this up myself, I’m really not sure exactly how practical the whole thing is, and the last part of the discussion today will be provided by you, as I ask you to sound off on whether this plan could work, and if so, how it could be made better.

It’s a new week...so let’s all put our heads together and rebuild the labor movement, shall we?
