Unions ROCK!

By Jim Dallas

MSNBC has a story about the labor-backed "Tell Us the Truth Tour" featuring Steve Earle, Billy Bragg, Tom Morello (formerly of Rage Against The Machine), et. al.

It's good to see the AFL-CIO breaking out of its establishmentarian box, continuing the transformation of labor from "square" to "hip" that has been ushered in by John Sweeney and others.

Thanks for this post. Does anyone know if they're headed to (gulp) Texas?

Now I know you must have a screw loose.

John Sweeney -> Ushering in HIP.
Laughed so hard I cracked a rib.

Thanks for the nonsense.
