"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality." --Bishop Desmond Tutu

Another shot at organized labor


Now it's the turn of Federal law enforcement personnel who are in the sights of the anti-labor policies of the lamest of ducks.
President Bush issued an executive order on Monday that denies collective bargaining rights to about 8,600 federal employees who work in law enforcement, intelligence and other agencies responsible for national security.

Mr. Bush said it would be inconsistent with “national security requirements” to allow those employees to engage in collective bargaining with respect to the conditions of their employment.
Yes, let's piss off the people who work hard to keep us safe. Nice work, Chimpy! I can't wait until the White House door hits you in your fat ass.
