[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 669663, member: 10234"] Back during the strike of 97, I was on my way home from picket duty and was listening to his radio show. He was talking about the p/ters and the push to gain more friend/t jobs. He was totally missing the point. (Don't really think so, just trying to put the company line spin on it.) When I got home, I called in to the show. The woman who answered asked me what I wanted to talk about. I said the UPS strike. She said I had to be more specific. I told her I had just left the picket line and was picketing along side a p/ter that had put in 45 hours the week before the strike. And that while those were friend/t hours, the benefits (retirement and vacation, etc.) were p/t. She put me on hold. About 5 min. later, they hung up on me. Obviously I was making a point that flew in the face of the point that Rush was trying to make (Which from the union standpoint was totally false). Any credibility I might have had for the guy was totally gone and I have not paid attention to anything he's had to say since. It's all about him and nothing he says has anything to do about truth or the American Way. Those things don't get ratings. He can lead some down his primrose path....but as for me....I will not follow. I'll make up my own mind, thank you! [/QUOTE]
