And what is it you think he tried to do that was honest?


He tried to do something honest...and was punished for it....if he had stayed dirty and continued to turn his back on everything the Outfit does in Chicago...like install their own governors & Senators ( See Obama Senatorial win or Kennedy's electorial win in 60/61) then he would have been left alone....

The most intelligent question that has been asked in this thread thus far....

Most people who swallow the Propaganda fed to them by the Oil Soaked Spy Riddled Monopoly Press...usually ask the wrong questions...especially when it comes to disgraced politicians....

Ask not what your politician has done wrong...Ask What is it that they have done right?

Blagojevich pissed off the wrong people by doing what JFK and Lincoln tried to do...HE SAID NO TO THE BANK....I give a damn about who this man is or what his flaws are...I didn't vote for him and could care less about his reputation....but what I do know is that he told THE BANK OF AMERICA...to fuck off on Monday...and was arrested on Tuesday.....

Spitzer was asked...no let me retract that...he was subponead by Special Prosector to the JD, Patrick Fitzgerald...to come clean about what he knew about 911 put options on behalf of several banks inlcuding AIG, & Bear Stearns...and before he could tell what he knew....he was removed from his position....he'd been fucking prostitutes for years...most men do (even if they don't know it) but it only became page 2 news when AIG's dirty laundry was going to be exposed for the entire World To See, including the Justice Department....LMAOOO...:nohead:

Did We Connect The Dots Here? Why is it everytime the Banks are in the crossfires, somebody goes to jail, or gets embarassed...?

Siege of Chicago plant a poster for worker woes
Don Babwin, Associated Press

Tuesday, December 9, 2008

The nation's grim economy now has a rallying point: Employees at a window-and-door factory that went out of business have taken over the building in a siege that has come to symbolize the woes of the ordinary worker.

The Republic Windows and Doors factory closed abruptly last week after Bank of America canceled the company's financing. Since then, about 200 of the 240 dismissed workers have taken turns occupying the factory, declaring that they will not leave until getting assurances they will receive severance and accrued vacation pay.

But the standoff has also come to embody mounting anger over the government's willingness to bail out deep-pocketed corporations but not average people.

"There's a simplicity and straightforwardness to this particular case that anybody can wrap their head around," said James Thindwa, executive director for the Chicago office of Jobs With Justice, a national coalition of unions, community groups and other organizations.

Apolinar Cabrera, a 17-year Republic employee, lost his job and benefits just as his wife is about to deliver their third child.


'I don't know what to do'
"I don't know what to do," said Cabrera, 44, who worked in Republic's shipping department. He has been shuttling between the plant and home so he can check on his wife.

The workers show up in groups of 50 or 60 to occupy the plant 24 hours a day in eight-hour shifts. The union assigns some employees to clean the factory and make sure it's safe. Others take in food donations brought to the door.

The protest - along with vocal support from President-elect Barack Obama, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, civil rights activists and others - has also created something else: a chance for unions that have been losing members and strength for years to show they still matter.

"I hope it's the beginning of a real fight-back movement," said Leah Fried, an organizer for the United Electrical Workers, which represents the Republic workers, who are mostly Latinos.

The workers say the company violated federal law because employees were not given 60 days' notice that they were losing their jobs.

The company did not return calls for comment, but issued a timeline of its discussions with Bank of America through a public relations company.

Company's request to BofA
Republic said it presented a plan for an "orderly wind-down" to Bank of America in October. On Nov. 25, Republic said it requested permission from Bank of America to issue vacation pay to its employees, but said the next day the bank rejected that request.

In a prepared statement, Bank of America said it had "worked with the company and shared our concerns about the company's situation and its operations for the past several months." But the bank said Republic should try to honor its obligation to employees.

Most of the anger over the plant closure has been directed at Bank of America, not the company, which has not sought to evict workers. Fried said the company can't pay its employees because the bank won't let it.

On Monday, Blagojevich ordered all state agencies to stop doing business with Bank of America to pressure the bank into using federal bailout money it received to help the fired workers
.

"We hope that this kind of leverage and pressure will encourage Bank of America to do the right thing for this business," Blagojevich said outside the plant. "Take some of that federal tax money that they've received and invest it by providing the necessary credit to this company so these workers can keep their jobs."

There are very few that are special interest free and honest. Sadly the ones that are, are made out to be kooks by the majority of assholes, and not taken serious by the people who would truly rather fall in line, than see true change. But if Ron Paul was ever taken serious and had a serious chance of winning, I can't help but think some bad things might happen to him.

90% pieces of shit that only care about what they cna get or take. 10% who are good people who care about what is going on...

Politicians are the biggest pieces of shit in this country. The people who would do some good wont run because they cant stand the pieces of shit they would have to deal with day in and day out... Have been told this in conversations with people who would make good reps of the people
