[Peace-discuss] Fw: [socialistdiscussion] Obama's appointments

[Neil Parthun]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Obama gave lipservice to an actual worker's strike long after it  
gained popular support. To quote the famous Dylan song: "It doesn't  
take a weatherman to know which way the wind blows."  It would be one  
thing if he was out at the forefront supporting them but he mentioned  
them during a speech to feed off some popularity that the Republic  
strike got.  He did nothing of substance to stop the owners from  
busting the union by moving to a non-union shop in Iowa.  Whoopie!

And as for saying Obama's a good guy for saying something in support,  
I see your simple statement and I raise you appearing on the scene  
and saying something along with a concrete plan to get something  
done.  The man who said that?  Blagojevich. Does that make Governor F- 
Bomb a good guy and whitewash his corporate ties too?

Live without dead time,
      Neil

  With the people, for the people, by the people. I crack up when I  
hear it; I say, with the handful, for the handful, by the handful  
because that's what really happens.
