That has got to be the largest crap pile you've hauled in yet. Ed Kilgore of the New Republic and the Progressive Policy Institute?? Next person who tells me I only use biased sources is going to get laughed out of the room.

The quantum tunnel Kilgore generates between free market ideas and the racist Old South is something to see. Anybody with even the dimmest historical background knows which side back then was all about innovative industrialization and capitalism and which side was backwards agrarianism.

This man is a Marxist idiot. Raise your sights a bit, Eri. The old stories aren't working any more. Everybody can see what these unions really do, what their goals really are, what they spend their members' money on, and what their tactics are. It's interesting that they are doing, on video, all the nasty things the Tea Party was accused of doing with no proof at all.
