So will Republicans forfeit Labor Day?
Edited on Sun Sep-05-10 09:42 AM by SHRED
Will they go to work, or if they can't, will they forgo their pay?
I mean after all it is a holiday established by, and in celebration of, Labor Unions' accomplishments; which of course are diametrically opposed to Republican disdain for organized labor.
Will they have the courage of their convictions and put their money/time where their mouth is?
Why would they take advantage of a day celebrating organized labor?
:sarcasm:
But then again, why do they take advantage of employer paid health insurance where I work? (a union negotiated benefit)

2. It is what it is

If "most" don't realize what the day is then they should.
