Labor unions prevent nonunion power workers from helping in NJ.

Let's face it. The 'bama crews were not good enough to get in a union and can't be trusted with live wires, when there are union lives at risk. Makes perfect sense to me.
 
Union thugs want to protect the income they'll get by stretching out the recovery effort for as long as possible. They kept the outsiders from eating off THEIR plate despite the suffering of their customers.

Unions suck
 
Forgive these libtardiots. They are still looking for evidence that Benghazi happened. After all only Fox us reporting it.

Irony...

Fox News Focuses On Benghazi Attack While Largely Ignoring Hurricane Sandy

Fox News prime-time hosts barely mentioned Hurricane Sandy on Wednesday night, even as MSNBC and CNN reported non-stop on the massive cleanup efforts just south of Fox's Manhattan studio and throughout the surrounding region devastated by the storm.

Instead, the Fox News hosts focused on the upcoming presidential election and the Sept. 11, 2012, consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya -- a story that’s been a mainstay on the cable network over the past six weeks amid suggestions of a White House cover-up. While Fox News correspondents have done solid reporting and raised legitimate questions for the Obama administration to answer, some of the network’s on-air hosts have been fanning the flames of conspiracy in what's been dubbed "Benghazi-gate."
 
let's face it! Unions are led by scumbags and filled with ignorant rubes who don't have a clue how they're being used

You are the exact type the right wing echo chamber...Breitbart, Malkin, the blaze rely on to EAT their shit...:rant:
 
fuck you, idiot. I don't listen to right wingers and I can see the union corruption. Fuck off you ignorant dipshit
 
Did I say anything about this being politically motivated? I believe what the article said was that crews were turned away because they were nonunion. Unless you see unions as strictly political organizations....
I'm shocked you'd post this WB. This is a pretty blatant anti-union hit piece. Your first clue is that it doesn't cite any primary sources, as Bgfrn pointed out.
 
So unless the article supplies the union local number, union rep and perhaps the phone number to the local union hall, it has to be bullshit? lol Okey dokey.

I just brought in a news story I found and thought worth discussing. At least no one is defending the union's decision. That is a plus.
Yea, pretty much. If you can only provide us with "he said/she said" information without citing a primary source, such as the ones Bgfrn pointed out, then bullshit quotient deepens. First, you don't know factually that these crews were rejected and second, even if they were you don't know the factual reasons for that. This is just pure hear say reporting and it smells of a hit piece to me. I'm sure that if this is true that the Utility company responsible for that region would have no problem corroborating the story.
 
leftwing deniers: how do they work? Deny everything and blame right wing news

Let's try something a little different for you right wingers...THINK. I know it is foreign to you, but:

HOW would repair of power utilities be coordinated?

Would any hick with a bucket truck stop at a gas station and ask: 'Where does Clem and I find fell downed high voltage wires'?

Or would any hick with a bucket drive around looking for a 'crew' and ask: 'Where does Clem and I find fell downed high voltage wires'?

Do these hicks with a bucket truck bring his own hardware, wire, transformers??

This story falls apart in so many ways, only a moron would swallow it...thus the thread exists...:village:

Fuck you, you scum sucking flea biscuit. My Grandfathers were union men and so were most of my Uncles and they were all better fucking men than you, you limp wristed, tail wagging, scab!
 
Oh boy here we go. These are the same people who will swear on a stack of bibles that 98% of scientists who do peer-reviewed research on climate change does not constitute evidence of anything and is a big hoax...but will swallow "someone said that someone went to jersey and heard that some union guy told some worker that..." like it was candy.

If I wasn't so busy laughing at these buffoons they'd probably annoy me.

it's 97% and it was an exercise in pre-selection bias. Too bad you warmers don't even know your own propaganda
 
Truly good workers get their interests met by threatening to take their labor elsewhere. Unions do it by taking the ball and going home
