“CLARKSVILLE – United Mine Workers of America officials on Thursday urged hundreds of local miners to get ready to fight for unionization at a new mine that will open on a hilltop overlooking this small, Greene County mining town.”“Wearing red bandanas as a “call to arms,” UMWA officials called on members to fight Alpha Natural Resources’ plans to use non-union miners to extract coal from the Freeport Mine, which is expected to open in 2012 or 2013, or force the company to “leave it in the ground.”

Hey All,
With the arrogance of this Administration, and it’s coddling to Unions, it’s no wonder they feel like they can dictate to businesses.

Not all union members are for this administration or for obo, and they do not like what their union bosses are doing but they need their jobs so they can not speak out.
But we can. They are nothing but a bunch of illiterate thugs that couldn’t think their way out of a paper bag and they find their strength in their numbers. But in the end we all know who will have the last laugh. In fact scripture mentions that God scoffs at their antics.
Praise God, aren’t you glad your on His side?
