Corrupt and racist union leaders in Minnesota don’t care about people, peace, healthcare or the environment

Theresa: Obama and the Democrats supported Bush in starting these dirty wars. People went to the polls anticipating their votes for Obama would end these dirty wars. Obama and the Democrats have willingly come to own these wars which the majority of the people in this country and around the world oppose.

Jackie: Yes, the Minnesota AFL-CIO and Change To Win affiliated unions are supporting PolyMet just like they support peat mining in the Big Bog.

And just the way they have opposed enforcing affirmative action.

These unions are coalition partners with the racist, corrupt and anti-labor Minnesota Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party. The union big-shots only care about the dues; the MN DFL only cares about campaign contributions--- working people suffer and these union big-shots and the MN DFL profit from racism and the rape of Mother Nature.

These same building trades unions talking about "jobs, jobs, jobs" are on record supporting the demolition of the St. Paul Ford Twin Cities Assembly Plant and the labor lobbyists never even turned out for the hearing to support the "Minnesota People's Bailout."

These unions tried to prevent passage of the single-payer universal healthcare resolution at the MN DFL State Convention and now they are working to kill the single-payer healthcare movement completely while supporting Barack Obama's health insurance legislation which is a reactionary piece of legislation that should be defeated.

These same building trades unions entered into criminal "sweetheart deals" with the Minnesota Indian Gaming Association... these crooked and corrupt union "leaders" cheated their own members working on casino construction--- their members purchased jobs in lieu of being protected by a union contract--- a vile, corrupt, criminal and racist deal.

One only needs to look at their sickening racist conduct in pushing for lack of enforcement of affirmative action on the Bemidji Regional Event Center where these unions colluded with Kraus-Anderson to exclude Native American Indians from employment on this massive public works project to understand just how corrupt and racist these union leaders" are... they only view the short-term benefits, just like the capitalist bosses they have become so cozy with.
