As if we needed further evidence after the fiasco in Wisconson last year and the recent teacher’s union strike in Chicago:
Utility crews from several states East of the Mississippi River hit the road this week to volunteer their time and talents in Northeastern states hit hard by Hurricane Sandy. But crews from Alabama got the shock of their lives when other workers in a coastal New Jersey town told them they couldn’t lend a hand without a union card.
To see the machine in action look at the @IBEW on twitter. They were in full denial mode before the weekend. Maybe by now they’ve been overwhelmed with video and audio proof? I doubt it though. Versions of “I did not have sex.. with that woman” seems to be the established playbook.
