Union worker update
Remember my husband got an email from fellow union worker about Obama (the email going around about his supposed "racist" comments) and I debunked it and then told him that anyone who is in the union and votes republican is crazy. I gave him the info to debunk the Obama email, and then sent him two reputable links about republicans and unions (the walmart store that was trying to get it's employees to vote McCain, and something else)

I expected to get an email back that was mean but he actually sent back:

"Finally someone sent me something to think about, thank you!"


lol, I about fell out of my chair, I then sent him two union websites (United Steelworkers which has tons of negative McCain articles, and another union someone suggested here)

I told hubby to forward this to all his friends at work and the article from USW about McCain's health plan charging us taxes on coverage.
