Obamasweet Symphony
The Obama campaign should adapt this for a campaign video, but instead of walking into people, everyone he walks past joins him.
On the road again
After ten days in Florida, the land of bipolar weather patterns, I learned a few things: Orlando CAN be complete without trodding on Disney-owned parkland. Southern people really do speak more slowly than someone from New Jersey. And those who create the billboards along Interstate 95 have no idea how to use apostrophes; nor do they know the difference between to, too, and two. Pitiful. I just wish I had photographic proof, but I also learned just how quickly cameras devour batteries.
I fucking love my home state.
Speaking of bipolar weather patterns, we were spared hurricanes whilst half the Northeast flooded this past weekend.
Time to boycott Wal-Mart if you don’t already
Wal-Mart mobilizes against Democrats: report
In recent weeks, thousands of Wal-Mart managers and department heads have been summoned to mandatory meetings at which the retailer stresses the downside for workers if store workers unionize, the paper said.
About a dozen employees who attended meetings in seven states said executives stressed employees would have to pay hefty union dues and get nothing in return, and might have to go on strike without compensation, and warned that unionization could force the company to cut jobs as labor costs rise, the Journal reported.
The Wal-Mart human resources managers who have run the meetings didn’t tell those attending how to vote in the November elections, but made it clear that voting for the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, Sen. Barack Obama, would be tantamount to inviting unions in, the Journals said.
Wal-Mart could not be reached immediately for a comment.
