-can you quote some of this "almost mindless union-bashing," please?
How about Doug's comment about the success of the French union protests-- "And all without gangsters" slam on unions as corrupt mafiosas.
And for weeks earlier, we had thread after thread about the narrowness of unions and then when they participate in mass nationwide defense of immigrant workers, almost no one even bothers to comment on the fact.
