[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1110602, member: 42270"] You know what, brother? You wouldn't catch me dead defending Scott Davis and the same applies on a bad day with Hoffa Junior. But hall paid his dues as a Penzoil rank-and-file member and a steward and came up through the ranks. He led the strike in 1997 and he's a sharp negotiator. Have I disagreed with some of the tactics he's pursued so far in negotiations? Yes, I do. But I'm also not in the room with those greasy corporate weasels. As a denizen of the south and as someone that can claim "southern white trash" in their genealogy, I also take offense to the generalization. Some of the most militant labor actions in American history have originated from the south - the implication that southern trade unionists are inferior or racist is painting with an awful broad brush.
