Happy Labor Day to all you big dogs out there. While everyone enjoys having a Monday off, I hope we all take a second to think about why we celebrate this great holiday. The labor movement and formation of labor unions have been instrumental in the growth of our country. Nowadays many have unfavorable attitudes toward unions and for that I cannot blame them. What's the good in something that allows for good benefits and fair pay for working class Americans which work in some of our nation's most dangerous fields of industry? Memebers of unions tend to think of themselves as more than mere coworkers but rather as family, which often leads to an increase in productivty and a better and safer working environment for the workers. From this it is obvious that unions are just plain bad for our economy and for this nation's general well-being. If anti-choice McCain and pro-choice Palin win in November, then another small step will be taken in the fight to put an end to the horrible, anti-American idea of unions in this country.

Damn my hair looks good.
CORRECTION! Palin is apparently anti-choice as well. I read it wrong. Well, she's not hard-core pro-life, either.
In 2002, when she was running for lieutenant governor, Palin sent an e-mail to the anti-abortion Alaska Right to Life Board saying she was as "pro-life as any candidate can be" and has "adamantly supported our cause since I first understood, as a child, the atrocity of abortion."
Palin said last month that no woman should have to choose between her career, education and her child. She is pro-contraception and said she's a member of a pro-woman but anti-abortion group called Feminists for Life.
"I believe in the strength and the power of women, and the potential of every human life," she said.
Knowles supports abortion rights and said abortion is "absolutely" a privacy issue. Government should not stand between a woman and her doctor, he said.
I would never buy insurance from that guy.
I just spit out my drink reading that!
