		<description>&lt;p&gt;The local news stations covered the Huckabeast appearing on Leno and crossing the picket line surprisingly well. But now it is going to rain for a few days and that takes over the “important” news here in LA.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;….like I said…another arrogant American. Just what the planet needs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Huckabee obviously cares little for people. He has his own twisted notion of god to hide behind and uses it to his advantage, but for people trying to maintain a semblance of dignity in a time where corporate welfare takes an ever growing amount of our tax money, where basic safety and health laws are ignored, and where corporate corruption has destroyed representative democracy basic issues involving collective bargaining are more important than ever. I think the Democratic candidates all recognize this, as displyed in their ‘pandering’ to town hall debate exposures. Your preterite sense of the failures of activism for working peopkle in America is self-defeating. But I think Huckabee would like your angle fine.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Unions past their usefulness? Tell that to the the anti-war teachers in Japan. I’m sure they would look at your take as just that of another arrogant American. Or how about the hotel workers trying to get a decent wage and health care? Or how about the victims of globalization?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Corporate unionism may be over (those were the reactionaries you must have met in NYC), I hope it is, but labor activism must be a part of the future if this nation if we are to survive as a culture.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My point in bringing up the Hard hat riot is that I think their is a tendency for some folks to see unions as automatically progressive and I don’t think they are. In many cases they are as exploitative as the businesses they deal with.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;If you’ve got arguments for your contention that unions are past their usefulness, let’s hear them. A Vietnam War-era riot ain’t one.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It’s just peachy to combine the two here:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thousands of union volunteers delivered presidential levels of turnout for state and local races.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jane was the first to report how quickly Huckabee was to have anti-war protestors arrested when they entered one of his local Iowa campaign offices with “Who Would Jesus Bomb” signs.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
