    You see that 737, man? You know who makes that plane? Boeing! And you know you who used to run Boeing? F*cking Alan Mulally, man! Now, you know what other industry is failing because of union strangleholds? Yep, airlines, dig? So here you've got the leader of a car union, flying a plane built and flown by other unionists under the rule of a class of his so-called white-collar oppressors! This sh*t is getting freaky, man. Pass it this way. Don't bogard.

    @The Name's Ash78, Housewares: ...and all those airplane engines; you know who builds them?


    General Electric.


    And you know who used to run GE? F*cking Nard's Deli.

    @DonSchenck:

    The Wall Street buffoons were SUMMONED to Washington, they didn't go begging.

    While dumb, they are smart enough to know that you arrange your bailout beforehand, in the back room, with your buddy Paulson, then make a show of getting your wrist slapped by Congress, to make it all look legit.

    He should be glad the UAW doesn't build airplanes.

    wow, seems like a lot of UAW haters out there today, looking at the amount of the bailout that the car companies are spending on wages (ie not much) it doesnt look like wages are the big thing sinking the big three

    Yeah, I think he's just not into symbolic BS gestures.


    I am; however, in favor of wall streeters riding bulls and bears to Washington.

    Don't expect much out of this guy. The UAW is all about protecting their ASSets, consequences be damned. That's their history and tradition. He could surprise me, but I doubt he will.

    "If you are seated in an exit row, you must be capable of putting yourself before others, because you will have to be a hero for doing a minimal amount of work. If you feel you are incapable of taking lots of credit and very little blame, please alert a flight attendant and you will be moved."

    @The Name's Ash78, Housewares: It seems to have been overlooked, (and I hate the fact that it's from you again) but this is about the most appropriate analogy I think anyone has made on any network anywhere. You deserve a goddamn Pulitzer for that one, nevermind a COTD. (You have plenty of those.) :)
