[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5590988, member: 58386"] Tell me something. Why is it that you Republican Teamsters are always demanding that the Democrats pass the pro union legislation you people demand. ? Why is it that you people never go to your OWN PARTY and place the same demands on them? Your party had firm control of both houses of Congress for the first 6 years of the two term Bush administration. Why wasn't anything done about it then? The Democrats only had control of the 110th Congress for the last two years of the Bush administration. In addition of the 233 Democrat House members 80 were considered moderate or conservative. Furthermore, The Democrats in order to gain a one vote Senate majority had to count on the votes of two independents and you never know which way an independent is going to vote. And even in the nearly impossible event that a bill revoking FDX's RLA exemption did somehow manage to pass both houses of Congress what is there to say that Bush would not have vetoed it? May I remind you that it's not the fault of the Democrats that you can't get your own party to support any pro union legislation. Nor is it the Democrats fault that you people keep electing and reelecting anti union candidates to seats in the House and Senate who in turn continue to confirm hard line conservative judges to seats on the federal bench. And by the way. If it were not for the efforts of progressive Democrats decades ago you wouldn't have a labor union today. Because you would have no legal standing upon which you could form one.
