1. LOL!

And I don't doubt that that's exactly what's happening in the so-called "Labor" Department right now. I find the department's denial that it's trying to help employers figure out ways to avoid paying the overtime absolutely sickening, it claims it's just giving employers "all necessary information." Yeah, sure. Riiiiiiiiight!!

2. Oh that would be hysterical were it not so true...I have long thought that

we need a real Labor Party here in the states; all too often, the Dems and Repukes seem to be flip sides of the same coin.

4. and, I hate to even think it, but

if things turn out horribly in 2004 (gawd, noooo!); this might become a viable 3rd party. Yes, that's a good thing; but not at what it could cost us for 4 more years. (hmmm, that rang a Nixonian bell somewhere :puke: )
