Clinton Remained Silent As Wal-Mart Fought Unions

Tapes Reviewed by ABC News Show Clinton As a Loyal Company Woman

In six years as a member of the Wal-Mart board of directors, between 1986 and 1992, Hillary Clinton remained silent as the world’s largest retailer waged a major campaign against labor unions seeking to represent store workers.

Wal-Mart’s anti-union efforts were headed by one of Clinton’s fellow board members, John Tate, a Wal-Mart executive vice president who also served on the board with Clinton for four of her six years.

Tate was fond of repeating, as he did at a managers meeting in 2004 after his retirement, what he said was his favorite phrase, “Labor unions are nothing but blood-sucking parasites living off the productive labor of people who work for a living.”

An ABC News analysis of the videotapes of at least four stockholder meetings where Clinton appeared shows she never once rose to defend the role of American labor unions.

so much for taking the fight all the way to the convention

i sure hope it’s not Elizabeth’s health

never had a bad thought about either of them but sure wish he’d have bought a Flowbee

I think Edwards droppin out may have one of thre outcomes.  hook, line and sinker.

With it seemingly a new executive being “ushered” into a change, we (as true Americans) need to “focus” on a “legislative” vote for a truly “effective” resistance in the right direction and, with that in place, a renewed America. (please note I call it my country America,(not Amerika or Amerikka). But I understand, and accept, the attitude that causes people of thought to equate our recent (in history) penchant for “irrational” thought. Although somewhat understandable, it remains “unacceptable” to people who “care enough” to seek rational, and justifiable CHANGE.
Let’s assume that the Repugs cannot win the presidency in the next election. Based on this premise, the “Supremes”,(entirely based on the Constitution that they, invariably choose to ignore) cannot be stopped,nor affected. 
Unless the incumbents die, or want to write a book and retire, or experience an “enlightenment” and change their opinions/points of view, we cannot stop thier constitutionally dictated imposition of judicial power. That POWER comes from the document that defines our government and, basically, our lives as Americans (i.e, the Grand Plan of Democracy).
With, probably less than the usually allotted “2 cents’ I offer this opinion (but with pain-in-my heart). Let us all accept that Hillary (not my choice..given connections to Bilderbergers/Tri-latetrals/Nau-Nwo relationships/etc) may become the “only” candidate that “they” allow to compete. We, as the only true option afforded to us in this given scenario, need to “affect” the support structure. The message needs to be sent, and heard, loudly.  This is what “we” (the populace) want you to do in a situation where things don’t “really” change.  Only in “groupspeak”. We need to “vote” real people who, without the $ to “blitzkrieg” us into giving our vote to those who have “experience” in dealing with the “system”.  What we really need is naïve, inexperienced, Americans who truly care to represent our needs and desires.  Why not see the debates about “ability” in terms of caring, as opposed to “ knowing the system and how to get things done”? I’d rather have a “truthful and caring person” then one that “professes” to be part of how things get done. In my mind, this is not about Obama or Hillary….this is about us, and our children (and theirs), and the future of our country.

Edwards’ message had, unfortunately, too much reality in it. Accepting that the corporate takeover of the government has been firmly consolidated under Bush/Cheney, and would have to be fought by a determined mass movement to force change inside the beltway, would be a transformational experience for most Americans. It would require sacrifice. Not gonna happen just yet. Those of us clinging to the lower middle class, formerly known as the working class, will have to keep organizing locally and hoping that something will wake up our friends and neighbors.
