Sarah Palin, Says Labor Chief Richard Trumka, Will 'Go Down in History Like McCarthy'

So Shapiro says it's a waste of money to give small business owners tax cuts in bad times, while other economist recommend it. And he you state was the architect of the stimulus. No wonder it was of little effect. Losing government jobs should be as justifiable as losing private sector jobs in a struggling economy. Let us not forget, it lowers taxes and reduces government spend which lowers the debt. We have to realize that government jobs are no sacred cow.

Labor Chief Richard Trumka is a very desperate person to speak of Sarah Palin as he does. If it wasn't for her a lot of shadey things would have went down with this presidency. I highly respect this woman for her strenth through all of this bashing and her patiotism. Go Sarah Palin!

Anyone who believes Palin's use of the phrase "don't retreat, reload" will call American people to violence, as this Trumka character has stated, obviously thinks very lowly of the American people. Of course there are fringe lunatics in every segment of society and they may take "don't retreat, reload" as a call to arms but that's the exception not the norm.

I beleive the AFL-CIO is the one pushing for the card check so that votes are not secret. Tell me that is not an open door to McCarthy type intimidation. When I was a young man I was threatened by a union for not joining the union where I worked at the time. The union "enforcers" in that group tried suttle and then direct physical threats. I know some people are pro union but I have personally experienced the dark side of them and see Mr Trumka's utterings as nonesense. I certainly do not see Sarah Palin as McCarthy. That is quite jump. She does represent to a lot of us good common sense values.

Good for you Sarah! I would rather see you then 10 Trumka's helping this country. The days of the labor union bosses are quickly coming to an end. The extravagances of labor unions have helpd to cripple this country and people have had enough of them.

doesn't look like she "blew off Alaska" at all to me...if she is so hated, why did her endorsement help Joe Hill so much?

would the " Police and Fire monopoly -bargaining act " now under consideration in congress allow a unionized emt worker for example to " not " work consecutive 18 hour shifts if demanded to do so by their employer ?And if by unionizing police ,fire and emt's nationwide the abovementioned scenario of an employer " demanding" overmuch of any one employee be eliminated ? And with that would not opportunities for others seeking work in those fields open up due to the increased demand ?

It's time the workers take back the power from the union bosses.

Senator joesph maccarthy...wisconsin.. republican senator from 1947 to 1957..widely chastized for his fight to protect america from communist insurgents.His constant battle was of course ridiculed from the left as ridiculous accusations..In reality there has never been anothere politician since with the insight of this man..a true protector of american freedoms..Oh..and as we now see... he was right..

she is just a quitter, she failed the voters of alaska, she broke her word, she failed on all her promises , she broke her oath of office, she quit when things got tough - she insults the grizzly bear for they never quit.
