As usual, Doug, your "creative" headline editing left out the part where SEIU's membership doubled under Stern's watch. That's kind of important, no?

But don't let me stop you from getting in your last kicks; soon you might even have to learn the names of some new labor leaders. (Might I recommend going so far as to familiarize yourself with some outside of SEIU? The labor movement doesn't begin and end with Big Purple, you know.)

I'd be very interested to learn the source of your peculiar obsession with this guy. Did he once lead a Yale SDS raiding party that stole the Party of the Right's pet eagle, or what?
