Union boss Trumka to attend President's speech shortly after Union thugs wreak havoc upon Washington State port

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka is among the various guests who've been invited to sit alongside First Lady Michelle Obama during the Preisident's jobs speech to a joint session of Congress this evening, the White House revealed earlier today.

Meanwhile, the AP is reporting that hundreds of Longshore union protesters [about 400] "stormed the Port of Longview [in Washington State on Thursday], overpowered security guards, damaged rail cars and dumped grain at the center of a labor dispute that has spread to Seattle and Tacoma ports."

Reuters reported that "Early on Thursday, the protesters stormed the EGT facility, smashed guard shack windows, pushed a security vehicle into a ditch, cut brake lines on several rail cars and dumped grain from some cars onto the ground."
The incident came a day after several of Longshoremen were arrested after blocking a train from arriving at the newly constructed facility owned by EGT...

The Longshore and Warehouse Union [ILWU] said it had an agreement with the Port of Longview that required the hiring of workers from the local ILWU chapter to man the facility. The EGT grain terminal planned to hire workers from a different union...
Perhaps, Mr. Obama, in his address to Congress tonight, can throw in a few words of encouragement to the ILWU union thugs, who no doubt would appreciate a few kind words from the President.

And while Obama is voicing solidarity with the ILWU thugs, the TV network cameras can then zoom in on Mr. Trumka, who, on cue, will rise to a loud round of applause from Democrats in Congress. The cameras can then zoom back in on Mr. Obama as he flashes a wide grin to Mr. Trumka and gives him a big wink. The PR theatrics could then be consummated with a union attendee waving a huge sign showing Wisconsin governor Scott Walker with a bullseye-crosshairs on his face, or a sign depicting Mr. Walker as a Nazi.


Another union attendee, perhaps, could hold up a large photo showing Communications Workers of America vice president, Chris Shelton, likening NJ governor, Chris Christie, to Adolph Hitler.

These small, but significant, gestures of civility and solidarity - on prime time TV - no doubt would boost Obama's poll numbers and rekindle the love affair that Democrats once had for the President.

The Obama camp can choose to ignore these suggestions if they so desire, but ultimately it will be their PR loss...

Sounds like you guys are engaging in distorted thinking. You might as well say that the UFOs are part of the scheme, if you are going to conflate to events that have little to do with one another...except in your own mind.

Hello this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually
code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to
get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be
greatly appreciated!
