Union aims to organize the unemployed



Union aims to organize the unemployed


Would they be public sector, or private sector thugs?

This little Piggly Wiggly went to the market

Oh Yeah?

Last September the magager of a  Piggly Wiggly grocery store in  Sheboygan WI  reduced hours for 19  employees represented by the  United Food and Commercial Workers union, shortly after the union’s labor deal expired.

They cried foul, and in May a NLRB administrative law judge ordered the company to restore full-time status and benefits to represented employees at the store whose hours were reduced without bargaining with their union.

Sheboygan-based Piggly Wiggly Midwest notified the state on Tuesday it intends to close its south-side Sheboygan store by Sept. 1, the same store that had been the subject of a recent complaint by the United Food and Commercial Workers union.

The closing would result in the loss of 108 jobs at the store at 3124 South Business Drive, the notice to the state Department of Workforce Development said. Workers would not be offered bumping rights to other locations.  [Full]

Given the drubbing public sector unions have taken in Wisconsin, it looks like Piggly-Wiggly decided to lay down their own marker.

Lord knows, I am not a Lindsay Lohan Graham fan, but give the devil his due. Here he  questions Atty. Gen. Holder's decision not to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate recent national security leaks, and twists him into knots.  Well done.

The good news is my fever broke.  The bad news is that it broke just minutes before a team from the Guinness Book of World Records arrived.  The were summoned by MoSup to verify my claim of having the most serious summer cold in all of mankind,  and  survive.  Without hardly complaining.  Oh well, I would only have broken my own record.  Now, where was I?

The University of Virginia Board of Visitors announced Sunday morning that UVa President Teresa Sullivan is stepping down effective August 15. [Newsplex]

What? UVa President Teresa Sullivan woke up Sunday morning and thought, "I hate this job.  I think I'll quit?"  Or, did it have something to do with this?  And, do the New York Times still rate the MA senate race a "tossup"?¹  Is Elizabeth Warren the phoniest, most corrupt liar in the Democrat Party?²

¹  yes, believe it or not.
² Sadly, no.  Run of the mill.


The Lani Guinier Hypothesis





The Lani Guinier Hypothesis
systemic sociopathy

Just read CBC staff: Opposition to Obama is racist on Beltway Confidential.  I would be gob smacked if it was still  possible to be gob smacked after four-years of daily gob-smackage.  Angela Rye, Executive Director of the Congressional Black Caucus states that —
  • Obama has struggled during his first term due to racially-motivated opposition from conservatives who dislike having a black president (blah-blah-blah)
  • Conservative opposition is racially-charged, citing the use of the word "cool" in an attack ad launched by Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS superPAC (the word "unhinged" just crossed your mind, didn't it?).
Res Ipsa Loquitur
Rye then declares that "Democrats have to explain how voter ID laws are racist to help motivate black voters." Now, all of us have, and are still,  wondering how in hell anyone can mount an argument against providing identification before casting a ballot?  The arguments are just absurd.

Here comes the BINGO!

I'm proposing that the democrat machine have allowed them to justify, rationalize, and accept  that voter fraud  is  both necessary, and justified.  They can't come right out a say it in those terms, of course; us rubes would get all uppity. 

 Remember Lani Guinier? Hillary Clinton's 1993 nominee as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights?  The "Quota Queen," who had to withdraw after her advocacy for anti-constitutional  proportional representation was discovered?   Proportional representation is what it sounds like.  In simple terms, black votes are counted 2, 3, or more times,  as required to give them parity with white voters in elections.   

Lani Guinier is gone, but I see that very philosophy at work in the democrat's persistent fight against any form of voter identification.  They believe in proportional representation, and the only way they see of achieving it is through voter fraud.  You can actually hear the gears grinding away in their morally superior brainal cavities. 

"Too many black voters fail to vote because of the discouraging influence of slavery and persistent racist beat-downs by white Republican party racists.  Ergo, it is entirely proper that we be allowed to cast their ballots for them, if there is ever to be justice."

I'm pretty damned sure I'm right on this one. We're dealing with a systemic sociopathy.

My current blog roll lists just 25 blogs that are brilliant, or satisfy me in some fashion.  Some,  like Sondrakistan and American Digest, are so packed with content that I often leave thinking, "well, that's all there is; I can't add anything else," so I go fishing.  What I mean to say is that my blog is about what I'm thinking about at the moment ... . So that's what my focus becomes.  And it's already been handled, so what the hell.  Anyway, these from Kaiser Vanderleun are today's case in point.  I'm going to watch 8 Top Gears (81-90) .

Tens of millions of people out of work or underemployed; pension funds at risk; the entitlement crisis is getting worse every day it is unaddressed; the oncoming "fiscal cliff" threatens to throw us into another recession (predicted by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office; Taxmaggedon begins on January 1st; our deficit is enormous and we have accumulated trillions of dollars of debt under his presidency with nothing to show for it other than high unemployment and high debt; and Barack Obama believes climate change trumps these concerns?

Sixty Six and Doc Martin

   At The Cinema                           



Two for you


This is a two minute trailer

Sixty Six  Plot

Bernie Reubens (Gregg Sulkin) a young Jewish boy is about to have his bar mitzvah. Initially, he meticulously plans a lavish reception to upstage that of his older brother Alvie (Ben Newton), but as the family's finances lurch from one disaster to another, the family is forced to lower Bernie's expectations and stage the bar mitzvah reception at home in North London. When England reach the 1966 football World Cup Final, most of the guests make excuses not to come to the reception so that they can watch the game.


I so thoroughly enjoyed this 2006 movie that I think I'll recommend it to you.  A great "Father's Day" film on the order of  Field of Dreams.  For me anyway.



While I'm at it  Now that I've exhausted Sherlock Holmes and Perot on NetFlix, "Doc Martin" has become my best television series of all time.  I'm up to episode 8 of 32 (I think) on NetFlix, and as the characters firm up, each new episode is better than the last. 

It was created based after the character of Dr. Martin Bamford in the 2000 comedy film Saving Grace. Martin Clunes plays Dr. Martin Ellingham, a brilliant and successful vascular surgeon at Imperial College London who develops haemophobia (a fear of blood), and as a result is forced to stop practicing surgery. He obtains a post as the General Practitioner (GP) in the sleepy Cornish village of Portwenn, where he spent childhood holidays with his Aunt Joan .  Clunes is brilliant.
